She was never meant to survive.

He was never meant to care.

When travel vlogger Skylar Jones accidentally captures a dangerous cartel exchange during a livestream in Mexico, she becomes a target—and vanishes without a trace. But instead of ending up dead, she wakes up in a jungle safehouse, guarded by a man who refuses to explain why he’s keeping her alive.

Rafael Mendez was hired to silence the witness, but something about the fierce, sharp-tongued woman derails every protocol he’s followed since walking away from the world he once served. With a past that haunts him and orders that no longer make sense, he chooses to go rogue—risking both their lives in the process.

As danger closes in from all sides, Skylar and Rafael must navigate trust, desire, and the ghosts that refuse to let them go. With the jungle behind them and the world waiting, survival isn’t the only thing on the line anymore.

Will love be enough to rewrite their fate? Or are some lives too broken to rebuild?
