Survival just got harder... Because the game has changed.
Nothing could prepare Ali coming home to utter destruction and the scent of death. With her roommate barely alive and in the hospital after being left for dead, there are no answers as to who has done this. After working so hard to get her life on track, surviving the worst years of her life, this may be too much for her this time. Only she doesn't have anyone in her corner.
A serial convict ends up on Ashton's desk, but this case has something he didn't plan on. Ali has changed everything, and his need to protect her grows worse every time he's near her. As Ali pushes back on his attempts to keep her safe, to help her, the perp enters them in a game of cat and mouse.
The battle of winning Ali's heart and putting this dangerous man behind bars has become the ultimate game.
Neither Ali or Ashton are sure of who will win.
*This is the 4th book in a series of character-connected stand-alone stories. It is a fictional crime drama with romance that is suitable for readers 18+, as it contains v10lenc3, t0rtur3, and mentions of r@p3. This is a MF contemporary pairing with a single FF scene that is one chapter--which can be skipped without ruining any plot. There is a happy ending and justice for our victims, but choose to read at your own risk.*
