When a sociopathic assassin married to the chief of police discovers her carefully compartmentalized life might not be as separate as she thought, everything spirals into delicious chaos. Bianca has perfected the art of playing the perfect wife by day and a lethal Bratva operative by night, but her obsession with keeping Theo safe becomes complicated when he proves to be far more than the "perfectly dull" husband she married. As corruption and vengeance close in from all sides, this power couple must navigate a dangerous game where trust is currency and deception runs deep. If you crave dark, morally gray romance with actual stakes and characters who make you question everything, this twisted thriller will absolutely wreck you in the best way.
