Synopsis

Julian Cross is twenty-four years old, the son of a woman serving eighteen years in federal prison, and three days into his first assignment with the DEA when he meets a woman on a Miami sidewalk who already knows his name. Vale Montero is beautiful, controlled, and precise. She moves through the city like someone who has never been uncertain about anything. Her father built an empire in Medellín. Her last name is written on a whiteboard in the task force office where Julian spends his mornings. She is the ghost his entire unit has been hunting for twenty-two months. He knows what she is before he knows who she is. He sees the warning signs - the driver who checks his shoes, the hand that reads his phone through his pocket, the smile that goes empty for half a second before it warms. He sees all of it. And he walks toward her anyway. REINA is a 110,000-word crime romance about a DEA agent and the woman running the organization he was sent to destroy. It is a novel about the line between the law and the criminal, and how that line is not a wall but a door - and doors open both ways. Set in Miami's corridors of money, power, and surveillance, it explores what happens when discipline meets desire, when duty meets blood, and when the most dangerous person in the room is the one you love. For readers of Don Winslow, Attica Locke, and anyone who believes the best love stories are the ones that cost everything.
