Cutting Edge

Atlas Mercer spent years running—from his past, his enemies, and the ruthless life he left behind as the infamous assassin known only as Obsidian. Now, he's found peace in the last place he ever expected—working in a quiet kitchen, far from the bloodshed. That peace shatters the night he saves Laila Carter, the heir to a powerful business empire, from an ambush that nearly takes her life.

Laila isn't used to relying on anyone, least of all a brooding ex-assassin with dangerous skills and haunted eyes. But with killers closing in and betrayal lurking within her family, Atlas becomes the only person she can trust. Forced into each other's orbit, their tension sparks into undeniable passion—a fire they both know is dangerous but can't resist.
As Atlas uncovers a conspiracy that ties Laila's brother's death to a man she once trusted, he realizes that the enemies hunting them aren't just after her fortune—they want her dead. And the only way to protect her is to become the man he swore he'd never be again.

Now, Atlas must confront his darkest instincts to keep Laila safe.

Perfect for readers who love high-stakes romance, thrilling action, and undeniable chemistry, Cutting Edge is a gripping story about redemption, betrayal, and the price of love.
