She's the prosecutor who's spent five years building cases against his family. He's the shadow behind Chicago's most powerful crime empire. When their worlds collide, neither expected to find salvation in their enemy's arms.
District Attorney Victoria Sterling lives for justice. She's built her career hunting the Rosetti crime family, getting closer than any prosecutor in history. But she's never seen the man who really controls their empire—the ghost who operates from the shadows, always one step ahead of her investigations.
Lorenzo Rosetti has spent decades protecting his family from threats Victoria can't imagine. Ancient enemies that exist beyond human law. Cosmic forces that would destroy everything he loves. He's been watching her for years, admiring her brilliance while feeding her information to eliminate his rivals.
When supernatural horror erupts across Chicago, Victoria discovers that the criminal she's been hunting might be the only man who can save her city. That the shadow prince who commands darkness also commands her heart. That some forms of justice exist beyond any courtroom.
But loving Lorenzo means accepting a world where crime families protect humanity from cosmic threats. Where prosecutors must choose between human law and universal justice. Where the price of salvation might be everything she's worked to build.
As reality itself comes under attack, Victoria and Lorenzo must decide: Will they destroy each other to serve the systems they've sworn to uphold? Or will they risk everything to forge a love powerful enough to reshape the very concept of justice?
When shadows meet the law, which force proves stronger—duty or desire?
Genre: Paranormal Romance
