Stolen Nights

I was assigned a fluff piece at the Adler London hotel. Instead, I ended up pinned against a wall in a total blackout by the world’s grumpiest head of security.

Liam Wyatt is a wall of irritated granite who treats my journalist instincts like a high-level security breach. He lives by protocols and locked doors; I live for the thrill of a lead. But when I stumble onto a trail of forged art hidden within the Adler’s gilded corridors, the "gossip reporter" and the hardened protector are forced into a shaky alliance.

We’re supposed to be stopping a million-dollar heist, but the real danger isn't the thieves—it's the way Liam looks at me in the glow of the surveillance monitors.

Now, a ghost from my past is threatening to torch my credibility, and a betrayal is unfolding that could ruin us both. In a world of fake art and whispered secrets, I have to decide what’s worth more: the scoop of a lifetime, or the man who’s becoming my most dangerous distraction.
