    Jane's nightmares are back—and this time, they've unleashed a brutal killer.  
    Jane Walker's nightmares aren't imaginary—they're glimpses into the traumatic past; and the past can be dangerous, especially now that Jane's protective birthmarks are gone.  
    Worse, she's no longer invisible within her dreams—and learns this the hard way while using her power to incriminate a ruthless killer. Inadvertently revealing her ghost form, she launches him on a relentless hunt to track her down. 
    Even more disturbing, Jane knows this man. She once tried to use her power to save him from injury, but instead set him on a path of violent crime. Now, he's targeted the man she loves, and Jane must keep one step ahead of this cold-blooded assassin before he gets rid of Ethan permanently. 
    Jane has one last chance to fix the mistake that altered this man's history, but that means taking her most dangerous dream journey yet—one from which she might never awaken.

    When the city of neon lights casts shadows that run deeper than the desert sands, secrets surface like ghosts from a tomb. 
    In this pulse-quickening installment of the Solitaire Series, Jack Bardlow returns to Vegas, haunted by more than just the scars on his body. Accompanied by Joseph, a man as enigmatic as the city's labyrinthine underworld, Jack seeks a moment of respite at an old friend's limo business—a place where the walls hold secrets tighter than a gambler's grip on loaded dice. But escape is elusive in a city that never sleeps. 
    As Jack retrieves two ominous bags, the air crackles with unsaid truths and unspoken dangers. Simion, the keeper of these secrets, finds himself unnerved under Joseph’s probing gaze, igniting an electric tension in the dim-lit lobby. Jack’s journey towards cosmetic redemption feels laden with dread, each step toward a surgeon promising salvation matched by the specter of looming chaos. 
    Meanwhile, Burt, a gambler on the run, stumbles into an enigma far beyond backroom card games. With an unexpected ally in the volatile Pick, son of a legendary figure with shadowy ties, Burt finds himself entangled in a web spun by power-hungry titans and ruthless ambition. In a world where alliances shift like desert winds, Burt's hopes of escape fade faster than the whiskey poured to soothe his troubles. 
    The stakes rise as the clock ticks, leaving everyone questioning truth and loyalty in a city where blood money runs thick and secrets are currency. As the buzz of the intercom signals another visitor at the gate, paradise turns purgatory, and every decision could spell doom. 
    Step into a world where the only certainty is danger, and trust is a luxury few can afford. When thunderclouds gather, who will be left standing when the storm breaks? Listen closely; the answers lie in the shadows.
