Star Kyrell. Innocent. Pretty. Daughter of a kingpin. The kryptonite to Eddie Kane, an undercover operative for the FBI and Star’s personal bodyguard.

Not only is Star plagued with the reputation of being the drug lord's princess, but she is also the ward to some pretty menacing and not so kind employees of her father.

However, things change when she loses her mother to cancer, or so she thought, and her world is turned upside down. Feeling her own innocence fading away to the dangerous and lethal mind-set that seems to run in the family, Star will trade her carefree summer days for a black ski mask and a loaded pistol in the late hours of the humid night. Unfortunately for her, she’s not the only one keeping secrets.

Eddie Kane is a man with strong morals and an even stronger mind-set to bring down Valor Kyrell, who just so happens to be Star’s father. It’s a juggling act to keep his composure around the woman who constantly bats her lashes and gives an angelic smile every time she looks at him while gathering intel on the man that killed his partner and filled the country with some of the highest grade of cocaine that the century has ever seen.

But what’s worse for Eddie Kane is he will ultimately have to choose between taking down the most powerful kingpin in the underworld or taking Star away from the nightmare-filled city known as Belton.

Find out what happens to the two secret keepers in The City of Star’s Nightmares.
