About this book

When Will Darling inherits his uncle's dusty bookshop, he thinks he's finally found solid ground after the chaos of war—until suddenly everyone from gangsters to the War Office is demanding secrets he doesn't even know he has. Enter Kim Secretan, a suave and mysteriously helpful stranger who appears just when Will needs him most, and the chemistry between them is absolutely electric as they navigate danger together. But Will's world shatters when he discovers Kim's real identity and true motivations, leaving him furious and betrayed. Now, with enemies circling and lives hanging in the balance, Will has no choice but to trust the one man who's already shattered his heart—and the stakes have never been higher.

dangeroussensualshadowyintoxicatingyearning

A post-war noir romance with tension and danger lurking beneath elegant surfaces. Mix sultry jazz, moody indie rock, and dark electronic undertones. Think languid desire meeting sharp suspicion—sensual, shadowy, intoxicating. Artists like Cigarettes After Sex, Nick Cave, Portishead, and Blood Orange. Atmospheric and dangerously seductive.
