Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

Assistant District Attorney Theresa Taylor has spent years mastering control-in the courtroom and in her carefully compartmentalized life. But when she secretly accepts money from two opposing criminal interests tied to the same high-profile case, her double life collapses. Powerful underworld figure Angela Warden places a bounty on her head and unleashes her enforcers to bring Theresa back alive and make a public example of her.With no clean way out, Theresa makes a desperate choice: she pulls Emma, the resilient dancer she fell for months earlier at a Detroit gentlemen's club, into her flight. What begins as a calculated escape quickly becomes something far more dangerous and intimate as the two women go on the run together, moving between safehouses while trying to stay ahead of the people hunting them.Tracking them are Angela's volatile enforcers, Victor and Joey, whose pursuit leaves a trail of violence across Metro Detroit. A pair of gritty detectives begin connecting the escalating chaos to Theresa's disappearance. At the same time, opportunistic players are drawn into the storm, including a flamboyant fixer known only as Strictly Business. With the help of the enigmatic Chauffeur-hired to get them out of state by any means necessary-Theresa fights to protect the woman she loves and the future she's finally chosen. But every decision narrows their options further, until survival itself demands a final, devastating sacrifice. CHOICES is a high-velocity crime thriller about ambition, betrayal, and the brutal cost of trying to outrun the consequences of your own actions
