Sinclair “Sin” Ward built his empire in the shadows.

Owner of a high-end customization shop by day and the quiet king of an underground gun operation by night, Sin lives in a world where trust gets you buried and love is a luxury men like him can’t afford. For twenty-three years he’s been married to a woman who knows his secrets but no longer has his heart — and staying together keeps his business protected.

Jovie Kane is a ghost in the digital world.

A hacker with fingers faster than most men can think, she moves money, scrubs identities, and erases footprints for people who can afford her silence. She doesn’t do relationships, doesn’t do attachments — but she does do tequila, loud music, and making bad decisions on her birthdays.

That’s how they met.

One night.

Handprints on walls.

No names. No questions.

Just two lonely adults escaping their realities.

Five months later, Sin’s most important package disappears — a data drive that could take down his entire empire. When his men track the thief, Sin is blindsided:

The hacker is her.

The problem is her.

The woman carrying his twins is her.

Jovie isn’t scared, just exhausted. When Sin corners her, she tells him the truth with a calm shake in her voice:

She’s pregnant.

She doesn’t want his wife’s spot.

She doesn’t want his money.

She doesn’t want his love.

She just wanted him to know.

But that honesty lights a fuse in Sin he didn’t know existed.

Now he wants everything he never planned for — the woman who never wanted him, the children she’s carrying, and a second chance at a life he thought he ruined a long time ago.

Problem is, Jovie doesn’t trust him.

His wife isn’t letting go.

And enemies in the streets smell blood in the water.

A one-night mistake turned into a war he’s willing to start…

and

 a love she’s terrified to claim.
