No one except the frankly gorgeous man who lives on the neighboring estate is willing to explain his grandfather’s ruin, but even then, Ryan knows there’s something more that he’s hiding from him.
Camille Moreau is a reclusive venomologist with a beautiful mouth, a patient stare, and a grief he wears like armor. And he knows exactly what Ryan’s grandfather helped conceal.
