A dark, intoxicating thriller where a woman who built her life on control is forced to face the one thing she can’t command—her own heart—for fans of The Perfect Ruin and The Wife Before by Shanora Williams.
Rayne Feathers learned the hard way that love is a liability. Years later, she’s built a life rooted in control. As the face behind Feathers Memorial Services, she offers grieving families dignity in death. But behind closed doors, Rayne is something far more dangerous. A handler in a deadly empire run alongside her sisters, delivering justice to men who think they’re untouchable.
Rayne is calculated, detached, and determined to never let another man get close enough to break her again. Love isn’t just off the table. It’s forbidden.
But when a chance encounter at an exclusive club introduces her to a man who matches her intensity in ways she never expected, the rules she’s lived by begin to blur. Known as “Metal,” he challenges her control, her boundaries, and the carefully constructed walls around her heart.
As their connection deepens in the shadows of secrecy and desire, Rayne finds herself walking a dangerous line between power and vulnerability. Now, Rayne must decide to remain the woman who dominates, discards, and destroys… or risk it all for something she swore she’d never need again.
