She wasn’t born to obey.
He is born to control.
Shine Halo is an anomaly-a woman whose mind is a force of nature.
With the power to command spirit and energy, she is untouchable by any conventional means.
Ocean is a king of the Cuban Mafia, a man raised under the iron laws of guns, money, and fear.
He has never met a force he couldn’t dominate-until Shine.
When he sees her move objects with her mind, terror and fascination collide.
For the first time, Ocean faces someone powerful enough to save him from the monster he has become.
Their relationship is predestined, dangerous, and impossible to escape.
Together, they form a balance nothing in this world-or the next-can break:
She protects his soul, and he protects her body.
But this love is forbidden.
The Mafia rejects Shine.
The Ancestors reject Ocean.
Yet Shine Halo does not obey destiny-
She rewrites it.
And together, they face a fate written long before they were born.
A dangerous, predestined romance-
where souls intertwine, minds awaken, and love defies the laws of the living and the dead.
"If they lock my body, my soul escapes. If they try to stop me, my mind continues. No one controls what I am."
