Billie is done running-but she's still hiding. From her past. From the man who almost broke her.

When she meets Adam, everything changes. He offers her something she thought was gone forever: a second chance. But Adam has his own reasons for getting close. He knows Billie's past and is determined to uncover the truth.

As attraction grows and secrets unravel, one thing becomes clear: they've both been lied to. Because behind every choice, every mistake, every moment, someone has been pulling the strings. And now he's ready to take control again.

The Master doesn't lose his puppets.
