Raven Rose Kelly doesn't need saving. She's twenty-three, broke, drowning in debt, raising her little brother alone in a shitty trailer, and working herself to the bone just to keep food on the table. She's tired, angry, sharp-mouthed, and too damn stubborn to let anyone close. Ali Vitelli doesn't ask permission. Ex-gangster. Heir to dirty money. Dangerous, obsessive, and used to taking whatever the hell he wants. The moment he lays eyes on Raven-fiery, beautiful, with a mouth that could cut glass-he's hooked. She calls him a creep, spits venom at him, and yet he's already made up his mind. She's his. What starts as stalking in the shadows turns into something neither of them can control-an obsession laced with lust, rage, and secrets too heavy to carry. Raven is a storm Ali can't put out. Ali is a danger Raven can't escape. But when survival has always meant keeping her guard up, will Raven let herself fall? And when Ali swears to protect her-whether she wants it or not-will his love free her... or cage her?
