Description

Some loves are a lifeline. Some become your last defense.

Kendra Foster-Briggs and Rose Emmons are married, contracted, and crawling back into the jaws of OutLook—the covert agency that thinks it owns them. But Kendra doesn't do ownership. Not anymore.

With debts cleared and signatures inked, the newlyweds return to training... and surveillance, and secrets, and rooms bugged six ways from Sunday. Every move is tracked. Every breath is noted. And Kendra is done pretending she doesn't notice.

So they play the game. For now.

But building a life inside the system means finding cracks in the foundation—and widening them. With allies like a cheerful assassin, a pair of oversized tigers, and each other, Kendra and Rose start carving out something real. Dangerous. The kind of freedom OutLook doesn't authorize.

And when the past refuses to stay buried, and the truth behind Rose's disappearance finally claws its way to the surface, Kendra faces a choice: follow orders, or become the kind of woman who lights the match.

Shades of Rose: Breaking is the explosive conclusion to a duology about power, survival, and the kind of love that turns scars into vows. For readers who crave stories with teeth, heat, and heroines who never ask for permission.

Perfect for fans of Jade City, The Power, and futures built by people who refuse to stay broken.
