The Last Frame

**FULL COLOR INTERIOR PAGES WITH ARTWORK**

Rowan doesn't do safe. She does heat and risk. She's been running from good men and toward dangerous ones her whole life, never once looking back. Which is why she never gave him her name.

It was one night. A stranger. A reckless collision in the dark that scraped her raw and left her aching for a man she'll never see again. Now, night after night, a shadow watches her from the corner of the club where she dances. He never tips. Never approaches. Never speaks. Only watches.

Homicide detective Elias Ward has spent his career studying monsters. He knows how they think. How they hunt. How they choose. He knows because he pays attention.

He always pays attention.

When his next case leads him to a woman strangled in her apartment with a photograph left behind of the blonde he can't stop thinking about, the case becomes personal. A monster is hunting his mysterious one-night stand. One who's patient. Methodical. And has already been inside her home.

Elias will do anything to protect her. Cross every line. Break every rule. But Rowan has spent her whole life mistaking sharp edges for depth, danger for devotion, and the wrong man's attention for something like love. And the most dangerous man she's ever met doesn't look like a monster.

He looks like the one she'd trust with her life.

The Last Frame is a dark, sexually charged crime noir thriller about obsession, trust, and the devastating distance between the man standing in front of you and the one hiding behind his eyes.
