Bound by Debt to My Enemy

The first shot at Mara Quinn’s engagement banquet misses her heart—and locks onto her brother’s. Seconds later, her fiancé brands her a thief with forged ledgers, while a blood-ink gun contract marks Nolan for death. The only man who can delay the trigger is Soren Kade, the ruthless broker who controls the city’s forbidden debt contracts. He drags Mara into his black-glass estate, where every bargain brings her closer to the truth—and every correction costs her a precious memory. He was supposed to be her captor, but his dangerous touch is beginning to feel safer than anyone else’s promises. To save Nolan, Mara must expose the creditor before the contract fires—but how much of herself can she sacrifice before she forgets why she hates Soren… or why she loves him?
