She’s a weapon in heels—sharp, skilled, and completely unaware of the hearts she’s breaking.
Sadie’s made a name for herself as the first and only female Marine Raider and now top-tier operator at the Knot Corporation. She lives for the job, her pet fish, and a complication-free routine. Feelings? Absolutely not.
Enter Maxen: a dangerously charming former Delta Force soldier, who is more than happy to be her complication. With a wicked smile and a stubborn streak to match her own, he ignites a fire in Sadie she didn’t know she needed. Because of Maxen, Sadie starts to wonder what life could look like outside the lines she’s drawn.
Danger crashes the ride, and the fallout is lethal.
The PMC's next mission goes wrong, and a teammate is killed. Another is blamed—her closest friend, Aaron—and when he vanishes instead of fighting back, Sadie’s loyalty is pushed to the edge.
Determined to uncover the truth, she and Maxen plunge into a deadly hunt for answers, uncovering secrets she’s not ready for—and those secrets might cost her everything.
