One normal morning, a trip to the corner store turned into a terrifying nightmare. Katie, a young woman grieving the recent loss of her father, finds herself snatched from her ordinary life and plunged into a dangerous world of crime and captivity. Bound and held in a dark basement, she must navigate the volatile personalities of her captors, uncover their true motives, and find a way to escape before it's too late. Every interaction is a test, every opportunity a risk. Can Katie survive and return to the family and best friend who are desperately searching for her?

In a world where a woman on a bicycle is a 'scandalous, horrific crime,' Lillian Linton, a witty and unconventional young woman, finds herself in court for daring to ride in public. But her real secret is far more shocking than her bifurcated ride. Posing as a man, she's the personal secretary to the formidable and utterly infuriating Rikkard Ambrose, a man as cold and hard as granite, who holds the key to her independence... and perhaps her heart. Can she maintain her disguise, survive her tyrant boss, navigate the perils of 19th-century London society, and maybe even find love, all while keeping her true identity and scandalous source of income hidden?
