SHE THOUGHT THE NIGHTMARE WAS OVER.
Ashley escaped the nightmare that nearly destroyed her, but freedom doesn't erase the past. Haunted by fractured memories and scars that refuse to heal, she's determined to reclaim the life that was stolen from her. But in a world built on lies, healing comes at a dangerous cost.
Michael Florentino searched relentlessly for the woman he loves. Now that she's finally back in his arms, he'll destroy anyone who threatens their future. But some enemies never stop hunting... and some betrayals cut deeper than any knife.
BROKEN. HUNTED. DECEIVED.
The nightmare isn't over. Hidden truths begin to surface, loyalties are tested, and old enemies refuse to let go. As the walls close in, Michael and Ashley discover that surviving captivity was only the beginning.
Now they must fight for more than their love.
They must fight for their future before deception destroys everything they've sacrificed to build.
In a world ruled by blood and betrayal...
Sometimes the greatest deception is believing the nightmare is over.

AMAZINGGGG AGAIN!
We’re BACK with my favorite couple!!!
The way I was DYING for Book 2 and of course, Toxic QT did NOT disappoint!! Listen Michael does NOT play when it comes to Ashley, and BABY, it definitely shows.
I also have to talk about the friendship that develops between Ashley and Eric because I LOVE LOVE LOVE their dynamic! At first, Eric definitely had me questioning him but watching their friendship develop throughout the book??
AND OF COURSE we get more Vinny and his banter!!! I need his book YESTERDAY. pleaseeee!!! I am patiently (not really) waiting because I already know his story is going to be EVERYTHING.
But let me warn you she does it AGAIN. This book literally takes you on a whole emotional roller coaster . The drama, the twists, the moments where you think you know what’s happening just to realize you actually know NOTHING and then you’re left wanting MORE!!!
And yes… there IS a cliffhanger. But honestly, if it’s anything like the wait for the first/previous book, I KNOW it’s going to be worth the wait
BUT I JUST HAVE ONE THING LEFT TO SAY
I CAN’T STAND ETHAN!!!
Like sir??? WHAT IS ACTUALLY WRONG WITH YOU?!?

This is a really good and entertaining romantic suspense. Michael and Ashley are fighting for their second chance and happiness together. I loved this mafia romance. The storyline is very interesting and I loved this couple.
