Running from hell isnʼt easy. Especially when someoneʼs dragging you back down into it. Belligerent, brash and always in shades of black, Freya is hardly a lady. Hidden away by her father, sheʼs lived a normal life despite being born into the dark waters of New Yorkʼs underworld. Heʼs cold, cruel and calculating, with a proclivity for destruction. Feared by even Made Men, Torren is the boss of the stateʼs most leachorous crime syndicate. Freya hates his crudity and possessiveness, but she canʼt deny the way her breath hitches at his rough touch, the deep timbre of his voice, and his dark, heated gaze. Torren hates her disobedience, her recklessness, and her chaos. To him, sheʼs only something to be tamed. And after he slips a ring on her hand, snatching away her future, she makes only one vow---to become his biggest torment.

We've all heard the tales of good and bad, the tales of innocent deceit and her hero, the tales that despite their nature, show us the beauty in contrast.

"Confidence is just foreplay for disaster," my therapist once said-right before I demonstrated the theory IRL." Nothing screams "I have my life together" quite like a broken heel, face-planting into a man so ridiculously handsome he might literally warp gravity, and my ego left somewhere back on the sidewalk-probably crying into a half-eaten croissant. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Skylar Evans-fresh grad, coding wizard, and caffeine-fueled chaos agent-didn't plan to crash (literally) into Carlos Dartagnan's meticulously dangerous world. But one awkward collision sets off a chain reaction of office sparks, corporate secrets, and eyebrow-raising chemistry that no amount of coffee can debug. Between cryptic codes, shady boardroom maneuvers, and a man who looks at her like she's both the ultimate mistake and the ultimate jackpot, Skylar is about to discover that life's biggest upgrades? They come with zero instructions, a lot of sass, and way too much falling over.

"Damn it, Mason, you can't fix me. I'm not some used car that needs an oil change." I'm standing at the edge of my driveway. If I take one step towards that house, then I go back to my life. The life I've had since Mason left. Since he abandoned me. If I turn around. If I take one second to look into his eyes. I don't think I'll be able to resist throwing myself in his arms. "I'm shattered, Mason. Like a dusty vase that's been ignored for too long." "You know the best thing about broken vases, Mel? You just need three things to make them whole." I decide to go along with his speech. "Faith, trust, and pixie dust?" I muse. "Tape, glue, and someone willing to fix it. And I'm right here, Mel."
