"Innocence Meets a Blood-Stained Suit"
One lived in daylight. The other ruled the night. But fate has a twisted habit of blurring the line between the two.*
Amy Caldwell never intended to step into anyone's crosshairs-let alone those of the most feared name in the city's criminal underworld. Quiet, gentle, and achingly innocent, she lived a life tucked between pages of books, dreams of safety, and routines as soft as her heart. But all it took was one glance, one accidental encounter, and suddenly, she was being watched... by him.
Kai Valen is danger wrapped in a tailored suit-lethal, cold, and untouchable. Raised in blood, betrayal, and power, emotions were a luxury he buried long ago. Until her. Until the girl with wide eyes and a trembling voice did the one thing no one else ever dared-looked at him like he wasn't a monster.
Their worlds were never meant to meet. Yet from the moment they do, Amy is pulled into a reality where trust is a gamble, innocence is currency, and love is both a weapon and a weakness. With enemies circling, secrets unraveling, and Kai's own demons threatening to consume them both-Amy must decide if she's strong enough to stand beside a man who was born to break... or if she'll be the last soft thing he ever destroys.
Because loving him could cost her everything.
And walking away might cost her even more.
