Some lies are easy to tell. Some truths are impossible to escape.Scarlett Page is a woman of many identities, but none of them are real. As a covert cybersecurity specialist, she’s built a career on slipping into the lives of the elite—collecting their secrets, feeding information to her handler, and vanishing before anyone realizes the damage she’s done.
Her latest target? Silas Wells, the cold, ruthless heir to a billion-dollar pharmaceutical empire. Getting close to him is nearly impossible—until his sister, Natalie, makes the first move.
Scarlett seizes the opportunity. Use Natalie, gain access, and complete the job. It should be simple.
But then Natalie becomes more than a mark. She’s warm, genuine, and kind in a way that makes every calculated move feel like a knife to Scarlett’s ribs. Guilt is dangerous. But walking away isn’t an option.
Silas is even harder to crack. Private, elusive, and impossible to approach unless he wants to be, he doesn’t trust easily. And yet, something about Scarlett keeps pulling him in. Maybe it’s her sharp tongue, the way she refuses to fawn over him like everyone else, or the fact that she seems completely unimpressed by his power.
Scarlett knows exactly how to use his curiosity against him. Play the game. Stay in control.
Until she isn’t.
Because every brush with Silas leaves her more off balance, more drawn in—until she’s forced to admit the one thing she swore would never happen: she wants him just as much as he wants her.
Now, Scarlett has two choices: come clean and risk everything, or keep spinning half-truths until they burn the very people she never meant to care about.
