I was only visiting the orphanage for a charitable donation. Okay, okay. It was a tax write-off. But when my greedy eyes landed on Magnolia and I heard she was about to be plucked from the system, I knew what I needed to do. I wanted her. And now, I have her. My name is Sin, and she is mine. I’ve aged out of the system, knowing only what I’ve learned being raised by nuns in a catholic orphanage. I’ve lived a sheltered life and now that I’ve met Sin, he wants to expose me to every lustful act known to man. My name is Magnolia Finley, and my entire world is about to change.

They say love is a war. Ours might burn the whole city down. I am Magnolia Rusco—heir to a family I never knew, caught in a legacy soaked in blood and secrets. I thought I could walk away from Sin Donati. I thought leaving him meant safety. But I was wrong. New enemies rise, old truths unravel, and the one man who claimed to protect me is the same one who shattered everything. I don’t know what’s real anymore—except for the ache that still lives in my chest when I think of him. But Sin isn’t done with me. And I’m not done with him. Our love was always dangerous. Now it might be deadly.

They tried to erase me. They almost succeeded. I am Magnolia Rusco. Alive, hidden, and running out of time. Pretending to be a ghost comes at a cost… especially when the man I love is tearing the world apart in my name. Sin Donati thinks he lost me. And grief has made him ruthless. As war consumes New York, I’m forced to choose between staying hidden or stepping back into the fire to stop the man I love from destroying himself. Our story began with possession. It was tested by betrayal. And now it will end in blood, truth… and salvation. If we survive it.
