Cybercrime doesn’t talk. It creeps in and destroys lives right under Gillian’s nose when a cryptojacking scheme lands her boss, Pinkie, in jail. Gillian had just started over with a new career, boyfriend, and confidence after escaping a vicious murder investigation that shattered her ability to trust. Then Pinkie’s arrest leaves her struggling to run his two bars while also unraveling the conspiracy.

Gillian will not let her mentor and friend go down for something he didn’t do. Neither will Jon, the most talented musician on the bar’s stage and the perfect boyfriend...until his good fortune sends her reeling. Gillian forces herself to trust the cops, people who hurt her, and known criminals. Will it be enough to free Pinkie and save her life?

Excerpt:

Chapter 21 excerpt

Six months ago, I slipped away from Boston for a few days for job interviews in Dallas. My ex never knew. The trip was only a month away from my finals and also the last time he could threaten me, in person at least.

I’ve come so far since then. Taking the bartending job was a blessing and a curse. It’s how I met Jon but also where I saw Bobby die. It led me to Pinkie and my new career but almost got me killed. It’s been difficult, especially when things got so dark. I never meant to get in so deep, trying to find Bobby’s murderer.

Karma’s been on my side the whole way.


Chapter 21 excerpt
“Gillian, please listen carefully. He said this guy’s in some bad stuff. Way worse than Kyle or Bobby or even the guy who snatched you from the parking garage before they nailed Kyle for Bobby’s murder. He says this guy will do anything to get what he wants.”

I gulp down what feels like a grapefruit. It’s déjà vu from before with the heat cranked up from hot to scorching. Didn’t I learn last time?

My Thoughts: My first book from this author and I think this series will be a winner! I immediately adored Gillian and love her character! The storyline was engaging and something that peaked my interest and I felt the author did a great job with it as it was a fast paced moving read which I enjoy very much!
