Sloane Scarborough appears to have it all ... until an unloaded gun at a lavish costume party turns her world upside down. When the gun unexpectedly fires, killing her husband's ex-lover, a playful cocktail game morphs into a scene of tragedy and deception. Sloane insists it was a random accident, but her explanation holds little weight with the police-"Unloaded guns don't load themselves, Mrs. Scarborough."
With her glittering life spiraling into freefall, Sloane turns to Max Bale, a prestigious Manhattan defense lawyer. Their partnership, however, is haunted by a tangled past and what-might-have-been regrets. Everything has changed since their sea-spun collision on the rocky Maine coastline twenty years earlier ... except for their electric connection.
To clear Sloane's name, Max enlists Madison Breakers, a brilliant and stunning private investigator. The complication? Madison is Max's current girlfriend-and far from convinced of Sloane's innocence. As secrets surface and allegiances fray, the tension between the two women crackles, pulling a high-stakes love triangle into the heart of the investigation.
As the hunt for the truth deepens, cracks in alibis and unsettling revelations force Madison to question everyone-including Max. The case hurtles toward a shocking conclusion, leaving Sloane and Max to confront the ghosts of their past and the reality that second chances may come at a steep cost.
Sharp, thrilling, and laced with intrigue, When Games Go Wrong delivers an irresistible blend of mystery, suspense, and romance that will keep you guessing until the final page.
