Rafael

He's the dangerous ally she can't afford to trust. She's the last detective he wanted to face.

Detective Eugenia "Genie" Green has one focus—climb the ranks of her Virginia precinct and prove herself in a world where every mistake is magnified. But when a brutal murder spree rocks her city, she's paired with the one man guaranteed to test her patience: a brooding consultant with a past steeped in crime.

Rafael Santiago didn't return home to chase killers. He came back to mend the years-long rift with his mother—and leave his gang ties buried. But the only way to help Genie stop a murderer is to dig into the shadows he swore he'd escaped.

Forced into close quarters, their clashing styles spark a slow-burning attraction neither wants to acknowledge. But with a killer closing in and their personal loyalties on the line, trusting each other might be the most dangerous move of all.

If you love smart, relentless heroines, brooding bad boys with redemption arcs, and edge-of-your-seat twists, RAFAEL is your next binge-worthy read.
