I thought my divorce would set me free. Instead, it put a target on my back. My ex-husband, a high-level administrator with Interpol, is tangled in a dangerous web of arms deals and criminal alliances. When I uncover his secret, I become a liability—and hunted. Desperate and out of options, I make one last call for help to Cerberus, and land in the arms of the man I thought died a decade ago. Nick Ryeland. Ghost. The one man I never stopped loving. He’s not the soldier I remember. He’s darker now, both in secrets and desires, with scars that run deep and a protective streak that borders on possessive. Nick is part of Cerberus, a private security firm with ties to a discreet lifestyle club where trust, control, and connection are everything. It’s there, hidden behind locked doors and luxury, that I’m told I’ll be safe. But danger is never far behind and neither is the heat between us. As we run from the enemies closing in, every moment together unearths feelings I tried to bury. Nick says he’ll protect me. That I belong to him. I want to believe him. I just hope trusting him won’t get us both killed. Welcome to Club Opus Noir. Where shadows conceal secrets, passion blurs the lines of control, and love can be the most dangerous risk of all. Dive into this pulse-pounding romantic suspense series featuring elite Cerberus operatives, high-stakes missions, and unforgettable second chances.
