In Cottingham Cove, Lex Chandler was raised by a circle of fiercely protective men—her cousin Rhyker, father figure Jesse, and best friends Torrin and Ethan. But when long-buried truths surface about her mother’s murder, Lex discovers that the people she trusted most orchestrated the cover-up. Fleeing to a luxurious city penthouse, she confronts psychological standoffs with the calculating Slater and learns that art fixer Callum Rutherford may be her real father. As the powerful Chandler family closes in, her suppressed feelings for Torrin ignite into something fierce and undeniable. Caught between passion and peril, Lex must decide who to trust and who to leave behind. From the tense hallways of exclusive clubs to the sanctuary of high-rise sanctuaries, every boundary is tested and every secret exposed. A gripping dark romance where love and danger collide, this is a story of resilience, identity, and the lengths we’ll go to protect those we love.
