Narrated by: Virtual Voice

When Dorian Flex, a smooth-talking conman with a resume as long as his list of aliases, walks into Page Turner Books, life flips upside down for Eleanor "Ellie" Hawthorne, the store's fiercely independent owner. Dorian is the kind of man who oozes charm, looks like he stepped off a runway, and always gets what he wants. This time, he's after a rare, elusive edition of Sun Tzu's The Art of War—one with three missing chapters that could be worth a fortune. The problem? Ellie's been searching for the same book for years. What starts as a battle of wits becomes a high-stakes game of cat and mouse. Dorian doesn't play by the rules, and Ellie's determined to outsmart him using every trick she's learned from her life surrounded by books. But the two are forced to team up to uncover the truth when the bookstore goes up in flames under suspicious circumstances. As secrets unravel and the line between enemy and ally blurs, Ellie realizes Dorian might be more than just a pretty face with a shady past. But can she trust a man who's built his life on living other lives?
