When Maya stumbled across a sweaty cowboy thirst trap on TikTok during lockdown, she had no idea it would spiral into a years-long relationship built on lies, manipulation, and financial abuse. From dry begging to full-blown gaslighting, Maya shares how a charming "rancher" turned out to be a serial scammer juggling multiple partners, draining their finances, and faking entire life stories. But this isn't just a cautionary tale—it’s a story of survival, sisterhood, and fighting back.

Maya not only survived cancer during this emotional warzone, but found unexpected healing and lifelong friendships in the other women he conned. Together, they formed their own investigative coven to expose the truth and protect future victims.
