While spitballing with my colleagues, I offer to write an article on Scotland’s role in international gunrunning. My boss pounces on it, promising if I can pull it off I’ll get a sizeable raise and promotion. I need that money to give my maw some freedom. Now I just need to get the inside scoop on the Syndicate, Scotland’s version of the mob.
Cue the tall, dark, and scary man who’s been following me everywhere and giving me the creeps. Not only is he my ex-husband’s father, but he’s an underboss in the Syndicate. The more he stalks me, the more I fear for my sanity and my life. When this continues, I begin to think he’s playing mind games with me. But I have no clue why.
Will my plans to use him result in me losing my freedom—or even my life?
Malcolm
When my son married her, I set in motion a complex series of moves that would lead to this moment. To inherit control of the Syndicate I need an heir. Who better than this woman with breeding hips who’s the daughter of a man I seek revenge on? And in claiming her for my own, I’ll hurt my vile, scheming son. Three birds, one stone.
But since I enjoy playing with my prey before devouring it, I take my time breaking my little lamb. She’s a pawn on my chessboard, a puppet I manipulate. And once I’ve reduced her to nothing, when she has no help and nobody left, she’ll be forced to seek my protection. I’ll give it, but at a price.
When I’m done with her, will I cast her aside—or keep her?
This dark romance, the second in the Tainted Love series, can be enjoyed as a standalone.
