Bethann never had a real family.
Not the kind that stays. Not the kind that cares.
Raised in a broken home on the wrong side of town, she learned early how to survive on her own-how to read people, how to disappear, how to become whoever she needed to be.
That's what made her a perfect undercover operative.
And what nearly destroyed her.
Now, stepping into NCIS as a Special Agent, Bethann is trying to build something she's never had before-a life that's real.
But the past doesn't stay buried.
When a new case begins to mirror a long-buried operation, Bethann is forced to confront the one person she never expected to see again-
Nicholas "Nick" Torres.
Once partners in deep cover, now strangers on opposite sides of trust, the tension between them threatens to unravel everything.
And just when Bethann thinks things can't get more complicated...
A simple DNA test changes everything.
Because the quiet tech specialist she's been working beside-
Timothy McGee...
Might be the family she never knew she had.
As secrets surface and loyalties are tested, Bethann must decide who she is now-
The girl who survived alone...
Or the woman who's finally ready to trust.
