She's hunting a killer. He's hunting the truth. Together, they're about to become the hunted.
Detective Rachel Jenkins doesn't believe in coincidences so when handsome journalist Alex Chen appears at her crime scene with information no outsider should have, every instinct tells her to run. Instead, she finds herself drawn into his world of dangerous secrets and impossible theories.
Five murdered women. Twelve cities. One killer who's been perfecting his craft for years.
As Rachel and Alex dive deeper into the investigation, their professional partnership ignites into something neither expected. But in a case where everyone has hidden agendas and the killer always seems to know their next move, falling in love might be the most dangerous thing they can do.
Because this murderer doesn't just collect victims he collects the people who try to stop him.
In the West Village, shadows hide more than secrets. They hide a killer who's made this personal.

"We get married. For two years. Publicly. Legally. The whole deal."
I blinked. Then laughed—a short, breathless sound. "You're joking."
"I'm not," Andrew said, eyes unwavering. " You need protection from Nathan. I need access to destroy him. You were the one part of his life he never controlled. Now you'll be the weapon that ends him."
Nathan Frank—my husband of two years. Charismatic. Powerful. And utterly unfaithful.
I thought I was coming home to surprise him after a work trip.
Instead, I opened the bedroom door and found him tangled in the sheets with someone I never expected.
Someone whose face I barely glimpsed before she ran like a thief.
But I know that face.
Because it's identical to mine.
Julia—my twin sister. My blood. My betrayer.
That night destroyed everything: my trust, my identity, my carefully built life.
Now Nathan wants a clean divorce, and Julia stands by his side, unapologetic… pregnant.
But I won't be their collateral damage.
With Andrew—Nathan's former best friend turned sworn enemy—I strike a deal.
A marriage of convenience. A partnership built on strategy, not love.
Two years to regain control. To uncover the truth. To bring them both down.
Because this is no longer just about betrayal.
This is war.

Blaine proposed a contract marriage to Camilla, which was going to hold validity until his real fiancee opened her eyes, and they all could go back to their various lives. 'Party A shouldn't fall in love with party B, and if any of the parties break this clause, they are going to face a huge penalty'. They both knew that wasn't going to happen, or they thought so.

"Why are you messing around with me? Your job is just look pretty, and be my wife!" the cold man rumbled while glaring at Camilla, and a heavy sigh escaped her lips.

"And that is what I have been doing, Mr. Sanders!" she rattled, but the man hissed, not believing it. "No, you have been doing more. You had been seducing me, and snugging into my mind!" he accused.

"Was that a bad thing? So did you mean I should go away?" Camilla asked, meeting the man's fiery gaze, and she sucked in air when the man's hot palm touched her back. "No, even if you do, I am going to find you with my last breath, because you need to take responsibility for me," he says.

"So what happened to the no falling in love rule," Camilla asked with a solemn look. "Trash it!" he says, crashing his lips on hers.

"You just made the biggest mistake of your life," he whispered, his voice carrying a promise of retribution that made my blood freeze.

All I wanted to do was save a girl. I saw a man in a $5,000 suit forcing a crying woman into a car. My instincts kicked in. I grabbed a bucket of filthy, stagnant bar water—cigarette ash, stale beer, and God knows what else—and hurled it right into his face.

I thought I was a hero.
I was an idiot.

The next day, my manager dragged me into his office, shaking. "Do you know who that was? That was Ethan Rossi. The heir to the biggest crime family on the East Coast."
He didn't want an apology. He didn't want the police.
He wanted $6,000 for a custom shirt I couldn't even afford to look at.

I have $50 to my name and an autistic brother to feed. I walked into the VIP lounge to beg for a payment plan, terrified he would kill me.
Ethan was sitting there, looking like a dark god, swirling his whiskey. He looked me up and down, his eyes stripping away my courage.

"I don't have the money," I whispered.
"I know," he said, his smile sharp as a blade. "But I have a proposition. Marry me."
He needs a fake wife to secure his inheritance. I need my debt wiped clean.
I signed the contract. I sold my freedom to the devil.
But on our wedding night, when he locked the door, I realized this devil might want more than just a signature...

Seamus O'Sullivan, Don of the Irish Mafia, forged a custom gold crest ring to find the woman he’d met at that ball.

He decreed that whoever could wear it would become his bride.

We had all died trying to claim it.

I had already watched my stepsister starve herself to the bone to wear it, only to take a bullet to the head on her wedding night.

Chloe was the second daughter of the Bishop family, she was the girl who had it all breathtaking looks, a foster father who loved her as much as his own biological daughter, and a fiance who was handsome and rich.

But nothing was perfect in this world. It turned out she also had a foster mother and sister who could ruin everything she had.

The night before the engagement party, her foster mother drugged her and plotted to send her to hooligans. Fortunately, Chloe went to the wrong room and spent a night with a stranger.

It turned out that man was the CEO of America's top multinational group, who was only 29 but on the Forbes List. After having a one-night stand with her, he proposed, "Marry me, I will help you to take revenge."

On the night my dad kicked me out, I drank too much and slept with my “brother”
It was a one night mistake. Yet, he proposed and claimed me as his mate, his luna.
**
“You have brought enough disgrace to this family.” His Alpha voice rising furiously.
“Me?!” I let out a forced laugh. “I’m not the one sleeping with every woman who passes my presence. I’m not the one who murdered my mother!” I hissed.
“GET OUT!!!” He ordered. “It was a mistake to have allowed you back in Ironclaw. You will leave and are forbidden to return.”
**
What have I done? He’s practically my brother. I had sex with my brother.
“It wasn’t a mistake,”
“What are you talking about, Jonathan?” I asked him.
“Arina, you are my mate. You were born to be my luna,” he said. His face showed no signs of humor.
“I wasn’t born to be anybody’s luna,” I shot back.
“Arina, I love you…” he spoke softly, still staring into my eyes. I could feel the wolf in me stirring; something that I had never felt before. She was awakening; the fire that burned so deep inside of me was beginning to flare.
“Love?” I heard myself saying. “There’s no such thing as love…” After everything I knew about “love”, what my mother went through when she married my father, love didn’t exist.
“Give me a chance to prove you wrong. Marry me.”

Three years of loveless marriage turned her from an angel into a black widow.

That night, she roughly bound his wrists with his tie and straddled his waist. As she leaned forward, her scarlet silk nightgown slipped off one shoulder, revealing a tantalizing curve of flesh beneath.

"Enjoying this, Alexander?" she chuckled softly, her fingertips trailing slow and deliberate over his chest, teasing the tense ridges of his abs. "Hard but can't move—feeling frustrated?"

"I'm not doing anything, Oliver. I'm merely acting my role. Perfectly." I said innocently.
"You really want to play this game?" He replied.
"We're executing our role flawlessly. People are watching." I told him with a smile.
"Then they'd better gobble this one up."
In one swift move, he spun me around and smashed his lips to mine in the presence of everyone present at the party.
