About This Book
The sharp scrape of spray paint echoes through the quiet night, mixing with the scent of wet cement and fresh paint. Michelle’s heart pounds as she senses someone watching her every move, but it’s not just any watcher—it’s someone whose jealousy could turn dangerous. Fear and excitement swirl together in the air, and nothing will ever feel the same again.
