How does one pick up the pieces of their life after it has been obliterated by the person they mistakingly trusted?

Ryker Waterborn's heart is broken, and his wife is a killer. Their marriage is a sham, built on a foundation of murder, lies, and deceit. They're broken. Destroyed. Yet, even after hearing her confession, Ryker cannot leave Brynleigh in the pit.

In an act of foolish love, he makes a deal to set Brynleigh free. All she has to do is go back to her maker and find evidence that Jelisette de la Point is a traitor.

That's easier said than done, but Brynleigh is left with no choice. She can either accept the deal or rot behind bars. Worse than all that is her relationship with Ryker.

Once, she thought they'd get a happy ending. Now, an ocean divides them.

She broke the rules and fell in love, but is love powerful enough to save them?

This is the second half of Ryker and Brynleigh's duet and should be listened to after A Game of Love and Betrayal.

I couldn't listen to this after reading the first. Had to know what was going to happen next. Lovely story that grabs you in the beginning. Voices bring characters to life.

The plot twists and turns in this book were remarkable, and I thoroughly enjoyed every moment. Brynleigh has emerged as my new favorite female protagonist. She has endured significant challenges and has grown immensely from her experiences. The writing is beautifully crafted, and the voice actors are exceptional. I eagerly anticipate exploring River’s story next.

Wow!!!!

I don’t think I will buy the other books .
Good ending and honestly I wasn’t invested in the sister’s story therefore Im not interested in learning what will happen to her.

The first book was much better than this one
