Paloma knew exactly who Sebastian Shaw was when she applied for the job.

He’s the ghost of a collapsed hedge fund, a man who fled the United States leaving a trail of financial ruin and whispered accusations in his wake. She walks into his Panama City high-rise expecting to find a monster, seeking closure for the lives he destroyed.

But from the first electric touch of their hands over a contract, Sebastian sees her—truly sees her—in a way that unravels her every expectation. He isn't the villain of the stories; he's a fortress of silence and control, and she is the one person who makes him want to lower the drawbridge.

Their connection is a dangerous game played in stolen moments: a brush of arms in a quiet library, a searing kiss in the ocean at dawn, a desperate, urgent collision in his office after hours. But in a world built on information, secrets are currency.

A colleague’s jealousy curdles into a quiet vendetta. A rival executive watches their every move, his gold signet ring tapping out a countdown to their exposure. When a single, damning email is laid on a conference table, their affair becomes a weapon to be used against Sebastian, threatening to destroy not just their relationship, but his very freedom.

Paloma has to decide. Is she willing to become an accessory to the life of a man she can’t trust, but can’t stop loving? Will she run toward a future with a man whose shadows she's only just begun to understand? Or will she decide to walk away?

For readers who crave the adrenaline of a forbidden office romance wrapped in the sleek, dangerous world of international finance, "Fugitives" delivers.

With a hero who's more fortress than man and a heroine who refuses to be rescued, this isn't a love story about redemption—it's about two people who see each other clearly and choose to burn together.
