by Hunter Spicer (Author)

In this gripping debut, a genetic advancement so grotesque it redefines humanity. If only the winemaker had known before he stole it.
The blood of innocents. Shed for you.
Bel McMaster is on the brink of ruin. The California wine empire his family built is imploding under the unrelenting heat of climate change and Bel's careless financial decisions. When he learns of a synthetic genome developed by a ruthless billionaire that could save his vineyards, he hardly thinks twice before stealing it.
Maria Garcia just wants to be left alone. She barely escaped the clutches of a vicious Guatemalan gangster and started a new life with her young son. But when the husband she left behind in Guatemala shows up dead in San Francisco, her quiet world is turned upside down.
When Bel and Maria's paths cross, the attraction is undeniable but cloaked in a cloud of deceit. As they evade their enemies, their options for survival disappear leaving them with only one choice. Betrayal.
