Amara Milano. The powerful and lethal. Tristan Harper. The heartless and deadly. Together, the two would be a force to reckon with. Unstoppable. Untouchable. Unbeatable. But hate had other plans. ... Amara: They say that revenge is an act of passion and vengeance of justice. With enough money, time and vengeance, anybody could be powerful and in this corrupted empire of New York, I was lethal. I spent my entire life seeking justice for everything that was taken from me and my morality quickly faded to gray. Despite that, nothing could have prepared me for a man as heartless as Tristan Steel Harper. But I never lost inside or outside a courtroom and I'd win this too, even if I had to fight for my life. What I never expected was the fire ignited between us and the twisted lies spun in this game. Because this fire could burn everything. Tristan: The need for ruthless control is insatiable and only someone heartless could control this corrupted empire. I was a man who relied on violence, revenge, and brutality to win every battle inside and outside the courtroom. I spent years trying to avenge what I lost and my morals quickly bled into the darkest shades of gray where weapons became my specialty. But I was unprepared for the lethal weapon that was Amara Ruby Milano and I gravely underestimated her. Nothing could stop me from taking my revenge on those who wronged me, even if the person standing in my way was her. Nobody warned me about her dirty little games and I never expected to fall into her trap. The one thing I knew was that her life always belonged to me and if killing Amara Milano was what it would take, then I would shatter her.
