But Thea Storm may never make it back.
A mysterious dating app leads the Chicago meteorologist to the Jade Sanctum, a decadent club owned by Austin “Aus” Waverly, a dangerously charming man with secrets of his own.
By morning, a bartender is dead, and Thea is the prime suspect.
Aus knows she’s being framed. What he doesn’t know is why someone chose her, why the trail keeps leading back to the Jade Sanctum’s bloody past, or who is pulling the strings from behind the curtain.
As desire burns between them, Thea and Aus are dragged deeper into a twisted game built on lies, murder, and a sin Aus never wants revealed.
Someone sent Thea down the yellow brick road.
And Aus may be the only man who can keep her alive.
