The RICO case is airtight. The arrest warrant is ready. And you're in love with the man you're about to destroy.

Two years ago, you became Sera Marchetti—restaurant manager, Northport transplant, perfect cover identity. Your mission: infiltrate Dante Moretti's inner circle and build the case that would dismantle his family's criminal empire. You succeeded beyond anyone's expectations.

The relationship was supposed to be access. Late dinners were reconnaissance. The way he remembered how you take your coffee was useful intelligence. But somewhere between the performance and the person, the line dissolved. Now you have a key to his penthouse, a drawer for your clothes, and a bracelet he gave you that you haven't been able to take off.

The walls are closing in from every direction. Your handler is demanding action before the FBI claims jurisdiction—fifteen years of her career riding on your testimony. Dante's uncle has started asking pointed questions about the woman who appeared from nowhere and got too close too fast. The head of security is running background checks that are taking suspiciously long to come back clean.

And Dante himself has started talking about the future. Your future. With a sincerity that makes your chest ache.

You know the monster in his file—the violence, the corruption, the bodies buried beneath business deals. You also know the man who traces patterns on your shoulder at 3 AM, who talks about getting out like he means it, who looks at you like you're the first real thing he's allowed himself to want.

Every path forward requires betrayal. Arrest him and shatter someone who loves you. Warn him and destroy everything you've built—your career, your integrity, possibly your freedom. Run and destroy yourself.

Borrowed Time is a crime drama of impossible choices, where duty and desire share the same bed and every whispered confession carries the weight of what's coming. Navigate final conversations with a man who doesn't know you're his undoing. Face a handler who's stopped seeing you as human. Feel the noose tightening as suspicion grows in the family you've infiltrated.

The recording device is still around your neck. The evidence is still in the safe house. The clock is still running out.

What will you sacrifice—and who will pay the price?
