She thinks she's tracking a shipping empire.
She doesn’t know she’s the one thing in it I refuse to lose.
She walked into my city convinced she was hunting a ghost.
She found me instead.
Jaylen Reyes doesn't scare easy.
God knows I've tried.
Instead, she told me my empire was a ledger built on other men's blood.
She wasn't wrong.
But she doesn't know what I’m protecting.
Or that my cousin is circling, waiting for one crack in my armor.
She's the crack he’ll use against me.
I should have buried her story before it buried me.
Instead I gave her the run of my house. My river. My nights.
I was keeping her close. Keeping her quiet. Keeping her watched.
And lying to myself before I ever lied to her.
He thinks she's my weakness.
He has no idea what I become when someone tries to take what's mine.
Read on for: a slow-burn enemies-to-allies romance between a mafia boss who's never lost control and the one reporter who makes him want to, forced proximity in a fortress built on secrets, and a possessive hero who stops calling her a threat and starts calling her his — right before everything they've built together is put to the fire. HEA guaranteed!
