‘You have the kind of face that should come with a warning label.’
Too bad Olivia painted it for everyone to see.


She’s a sunshine artist with too much curiosity for a city that eats the unwary alive. Her mistake? Putting the most dangerous man in Vespera on canvas. A man she’s never met. A man who doesn’t forgive accidents.

Ruvan rules the underworld with shadows at his command. No one outside his circle has ever seen his face—until Olivia. One look at her painting and he knows two things: someone betrayed him, and killing her would be the safest option.

Instead, he keeps her close.
Instead, she keeps talking.
Instead, sparks ignite where there should only be fear.


But when Olivia’s rare magic surfaces, light collides with shadow—and their attraction could be the very thing that burns the city to the ground.

Perfect for fans of dark, slow-burn romance: a grumpy crime lord, a reckless sunshine artist, and a city where love is as lethal as power.


Genre: Paranormal Romance
