Synopsis
Five years after the city buried Kamari Moretti, the world learned to live without him. Ashley DeVoe did too or at least she tried. Raising her children trapped in Judah's world, Ashley learned the hard way that survival always comes with a price. But when a violent attack meant for Judah leaves her caught in the crossfire, the past she tried to outrun comes crashing back with it. Now Kamari is home–alive, colder, and more dangerous than ever. As old betrayals resurface and the city gears up for war, Ashley finds herself torn between the man she never stopped loving and the life she built to survive without him. With blood in the streets, secrets threatening to unravel everything, and enemies closing in from every side, the Morettis are forced into a fight that could cost them everything. Because in this city, the dead don't stay buried. And love leaves residuals. Please Note: This is the first installment in a continuing series and concludes with a cliffhanger ending.
