Book Description
From the author of the Madison Kate series comes the final installment in the dark and delicious interconnected Hades series, another biting "why choose" romance in Shadow Grove. "I wasn't an empty shell. I was a goddamn survivor." Betrayed. My best friend, my right hand, the man I trusted above all others. Zayden de Rosa declared his love for me and pursued me until he shattered the walls between us. Then he proved to be a traitor. I never saw that coming. Abandoned. My fierce lover died to protect me. Let me kill and erase him so he could move in the shadows. He's out there alone and has no idea what's happened. All he'll know is that I'm not where I'm supposed to be. Something that might cost him his life for real. He never saw that coming. Framed. My lighthouse. My lover. My Lucas. I love him so damn much, and while I might be guilty of some crimes, the worst one is hurting him. The majority of what they arrested me for was a damn lie, but not that part. Hopefully the light he promised me will endure this. We never saw that coming. Enraged. My ex is at the heart of this all. One assault after another. But he didn't break me before, and he won't break me now. I'm Hades. He'll never see me coming.
