Emily McIntire, an internationally bestselling author, presents a dark and captivating retelling of The Wizard of Oz.

Evelina Westerly is known as the villain. She handles the operations of her family’s drug empire, serving as her father’s fierce and secret weapon. Evelina’s life revolves around tending to her greenhouse, seeking vengeance for her sister’s death, and eliminating anyone who stands in her path. Love is not on her agenda. After a one-night fling with a handsome man at a nightclub, she feels satisfied and returns to her criminal life—until that same man appears as a new employee in her family business, though he goes by a different name.

Nicholas Woodsworth has a far more dangerous secret than just an alias. He is an undercover DEA agent determined to take down the drug trade that shattered his own family. When he realizes that Evelina is the same woman he can’t stop thinking about since their night together, he struggles with mixed feelings. She represents everything he fights against, and he was sent to bring her down. But as they uncover the darkness within each other, they find they share more similarities than they thought. When animosity shifts to something deeper, Nicholas must choose if he can love a flawed woman, even if it risks destroying them both.
