Crushed
Kuhusu kitabu pepe hiki
He’s a hunted hacker.
She’s a bookshop owner and a wealthy heiress.
Until now, their identities never mattered.
Their virtual friendship was a haven from real life.
Until the day he walked into her store.
He’s on the run from his murderous business partner, hiding off-grid in a vineyard safehouse. He and his small team are building a black ops high-tech security firm because he doesn’t plan to play defense forever.
On a whim, he pings the location of his long-time virtual friend and discovers she’s close. The plan is to finally put a real face to the avatar. Simple. Easy.
His identity, and their connection, would remain hidden.
Of all the things he expected, he never anticipated her.
A crush. That’s all it is.
Enemies circle and dark secrets loom.
His. And hers.
And yet, he’ll stop at nothing to protect her.
Crushed is a stand-alone billionaire romance with hidden identities, vigilante justice, and a band of friends on the run from the new-age mafia.
The first in the Twisted Vines series, Crushed is a standalone romance novel with no cliffhanger. Characters from First Light from the Haven Island series make appearances, as Erik’s twin sister Cali is the heroine in First Light.
