Book 1 in the Saudade series. In Texas, land ain't just something you buy with a check. Sometimes it costs you blood. Azad Martinez spent twenty years building a fortune on one thing, and one thing only: burning down the uncle who stole his family's ranch and snatched his brother when he was just a kid. His plan is cold, it's ruthless, and it don't leave room for nothing soft-especially not a wife. But when his cousin comes for an innocent woman, Azad does something he ain't never done before. He acts on impulse. He marries her. Yasmin Garcia is a veterinarian who traded her freedom to keep her family's land out of the wrong hands. She figured she was signing up for a gilded cage and a husband who'd look right through her. What she didn't count on was a man whose silence tells a whole story of wounds that never healed. A man whose touch leaves marks, and whose enemies don't play nice. When a cartel-backed war kicks off around them, Yasmin starts to see the truth: the man she married ain't just some businessman with a nice spread. He's a king taking back his throne. And he'll do it by any means necessary. Y así es como empieza el desmadre. As Malik Martinez and his cartel compadres hit back, the fight for the Martinez name turns into a fight to stay breathing. Yasmin's got a choice to make: is she just a piece on Azad's chessboard, or is she the one person who can reach the wounded man behind all that cold steel? And Azad? He's gotta face down a truth that scares him worse than any enemy: to win his war, he might have to let down the walls he's been building his whole damn life. He might have to let her in. And that just might make the woman he married the biggest target of all. A darkly romantic tale of revenge, resilience, and the ruthless fight for a place to call home.
