"Keep your distance, princess. Or I'll be your ruin." I should listen. I’m Bratva royalty, and he’s my brother’s closest ally. Older. Scarred. Lethal. But as his dark gaze locks with mine, full of the desire he’s tried to bury, I know I’m ready to break every d*mn rule written in my book. When masked men crash my birthday with the intent to make it my last, It’s Grigori who saves me. ​​​​​​​In the shadows of a safehouse, he becomes my obsession. And I, his. His words tell me I deserve better. But his eyes reveal a hunger he’s buried for years, A desire he’s fought every step of the way. They say a savage enforcer with bloodstained hands will only destroy me. And I’m ready to burn for him. Because walking away from the only man who’s ever made me feel alive isn’t an option. Not when I’m carrying the one secret that could destroy us both.
