Shot Through the Heart

Elena Vance is a woman who has mastered the art of keeping her head down. As a high-strung insurance agent, she spends her days navigating the infuriating whims of difficult clients, keeping her emotions filed away in neat, orderly cabinets. But life has a way of disrupting the most careful of plans when a sudden crime scene forces her path to cross with Detective Sarah Miller. Sarah is everything Elena tries not to be: bold, impulsive, and constantly chasing the thrill of the hunt. Drawn together by a tangled mystery that refuses to stay buried, the two women find their initial friction sparking into an undeniable, dangerous chemistry. As the stakes rise and the evidence begins to point toward a truth closer to home than either woman dared to imagine, the line between professional distance and heart-pounding desire begins to blur. Shot Through the Heart is a pulse-pounding sapphic romance that masterfully balances high-stakes suspense with a tender, slow-burn connection. It is a story about shedding the armor we wear to survive and discovering that sometimes, being vulnerable—even in the face of death—is the bravest gamble one can take.
