I accidentally witnessed a brutal murder. So to protect myself, I pretended I saw nothing.

But my plan backfired. And now I’m the target of cold-blooded revenge.

Jude Callahan isn’t just a hockey god—he’s a devil no one dares to cross.

He’s also determined to make me pay for my moment of silence.

Now, no matter how much I try to hide from him, Jude finds me.

I thought he’d stop at the stalking.

Or even better, kill me and finally end my misery.

But Jude has other plans.

He says I can’t die. That I must pay for my sins.

And just like that, he drags me into his depraved world, kicking and screaming.

She’s known to write unapologetic anti-heroes and villains because she often fell in love with men no one roots for herself. Her books are sprinkled with a touch of darkness, a pinch of angst and an unhealthy dose of intensity.


She spends her private days in London laughing like an evil mastermind about adding mayhem to her expanding universe. When she's not writing, Rina travels, hikes and spoils cats in a pure Cat-Lady fashion.
