Crimson Chains: Love In The Shadows
“In a city where secrets are power and betrayal lurks in every shadow, Naya Cruz walks a dangerous line. By day, she's a struggling tech genius. By night, she's the elusive hacker Cipher, exposing corruption and toppling crime lords from behind her screen. But when a job goes wrong, she finds herself face-to-face with the one man she should fear most - Adrian Wolfe, heir to the ruthless Wolfe Syndicate... and the son of the man who destroyed her family. Adrian isn't just dangerous - he's a storm, cold and calculating, with a past drenched in blood and loyalty. Yet when he saves Naya from certain death, their connection ignites into something forbidden. As she dives deeper into the criminal underworld, unraveling a conspiracy that threatens the entire city, the line between ally and enemy blurs. With danger closing in and their hearts tangled in a web of secrets, Naya and Adrian must decide: will their forbidden love break the chains of vengeance - or shatter them both? In a city ruled by shadows, the greatest risk is falling for the darkness.”
