About this audiobook
She spins the lies. He represents the dream.
Amara Diallo, D.C.’s top crisis manager, knows the truth is irrelevant—only the story matters. But when she’s framed for a Senator’s murder at the Library of Congress, she becomes the "radical villain" in a narrative she can’t control.
Senator Liam Sterling, the GOP’s Golden Boy, sees his family’s "charitable" Heritage Trust revealed as a murderous cabal. While the media paints him as Amara’s hostage, they are actually fleeing for their lives with a mysterious black ledger.
Stripped of power and sharing "only one bed" in grimy motels, the cynic and the idealist uncover a rot that destroyed Amara’s father. To survive a "shoot on sight" order, Liam must burn down his dynasty, and Amara must trust the man who represents everything she hates.
Features:
BWWM Romantic Suspense: Slow-burn, enemies-to-lovers.
High-Stakes Thriller: D.C. corruption and secret societies.
The Grand Gesture: Destroying an empire for love.
