About The Book

“Blood Ties: The Rebirth of Vengeance”
She was murdered in paradise. Reborn in fire. And
now, she’s back to burn it all down.
In 1988, model Paula Gonzalez was lured to a
mansion in Mexico by a billionaire cartel lord. She was
beautiful, strong—and she fought back. For that, she
was killed.
But fate had other plans.
Reincarnated as Paula Cruz—the daughter of two U.S.
Marines—she grows up haunted by dreams of ocean
waves, strangled screams, and a red dress soaked in
blood. Trained in weapons, off-grid survival, and
hand-to-hand combat, Paula becomes a CIA
operative… and is sent undercover to Mexico City.
Her target? Felix Vertiz—heir to the cartel that
murdered her in a past life.
What begins as a covert assignment quickly becomes
something deeper… something personal. As
memories resurface and karma ignites, Paula
launches a one-woman war against a dynasty of blood
money, betrayal, and abuse.
She wasn’t sent for justice.
She was born for revenge.
From seductive deception to brutal execution, Blood
Ties: The Rebirth of Vengeance is an action-packed
thriller of reincarnation, cartel power, and the
unstoppable rise of a woman forged in fire.
