Dans les eaux turbulentes de la criminalité et du pouvoir, Abigail navigue dans un monde où chaque sourire cache un secret, et chaque promesse, une trahison.

À 21 ans, elle est la fille d'un puissant chef de cartel américain, Mark King. Le jour où celui-ci lui demande de séduire le fils d'une organisation criminelle rivale, Abigail se fait prendre à son propre jeu et finit kidnappée. Après une semaine de captivité, elle est libérée, mais son père décide de tout faire pour la protéger à présent, et l'envoie vivre sur une île de sa possession : Phantom Reef.

Jude Lynch n'avait pas d'autre choix que de fuir à Phantom Reef, cette île perdue au milieu de l'océan pacifique. Pour fuir son passé et ses démons, il a accepté l'offre d'emploi du puissant Mark King. Depuis deux ans, il est le gardien solitaire de cette île où de violents orages succèdent au soleil le plus étincelant. 

La cohabitation se révèle vite compliquée entre Abigail et Jude, mais le désir finit par se mêler aux disputes. Ils découvrent vite que cette île cache de nombreux secrets, et s'allient pour les découvrir un à un...

Mais dans un océan de mensonges, la vérité est le secret le mieux gardé.

I place one leg on the side of the chair he's seated on and pull out a pistol from my waistband. I look into his hazelnut eyes for his reaction. scared, confused, just the reaction I was dying for. "Holy shit that's a gun" he exclaims "I told you earlier not to be fooled. I'm evil, wicked, I'm the devil, I rob banks, innocent people, I derive joy from people's pain and fear, I get wealth by doing dare devil jobs-" I cut myself in, not wanting to leak too much info. I've said just about enough already. "I still love you " he spat, glaring intently at me. mine widens in shock I quickly mask it over with an emotionless and bored expression. I close up our space once more. "Even if I am ready to blow out your brain? don't you think it's a little too soon for you to use the word "love" ?it's pretty strong!! " I press the gun on his temple, my finger lingering on the trigger. *********

He kept his hand on my neck and inched closer to me. I turned my head slightly and he took the opportunity to nuzzle his nose in my neck.

Suddenly the bell rang. "I-I need to get to class" I whispered and placed my hands on his shoulders and lightly pushed him back. His eyes immediately hardened as he roughly grabbed my neck and slammed me back into the wall. This time his body pressed on mine. "You'll leave when I say you can."
