The events that followed changed her life forever. Twelve years later, the woman now known as Abigail Lowery lives alone on the outskirts of a small town in the Ozarks.

Others: NegativeThey say the best kept secrets are hidden in the darkest places. I know that better than anybody… Because I’m one of them. I spend my days locked in a black-market nightmare, held captive by a twisted mastermind who considers me his prized possession. My only form of human contact are the victims in the next room, each of whom disappears faster than the last. Everyone leaves…except me. Then I hear him—Isaac. Brash, elusive, and haunted, he isn’t anyone’s idea of a hero. Separated by a wall, our faces hidden, his voice cuts through the darkness, becoming my only hope. He’s driven by vengeance, bearing scars as dark as my own. Despite his rough edges, a fragile bond forms between us—a lifeline. Isaac might be my best chance of escape, but time is slipping away. Breaking free will mean outrunning both our pasts, and in this twisted game, the cost of freedom may be more than we can afford to pay. Appearances deceive. Choices have consequences. And some consequences? They are irreversible.

Not a fanThis one I was really excited to read. I read, I think, for the mafia romance readers on this summer, and I've heard amazing things about Cressley Cole's mafia romances, but the problem for me was this one took place like entirely in like their home, and I really don't love romances that only take place in like the home.
Loved itI read the professional and the master which I really loved as well
