Raven's Mark
Raven Vaughn has spent her life hiding in the shadows-first to survive, then to hunt. By day, she runs Ink & Steel, a tattoo shop that keeps her hands busy. By night, those same hands are stained in blood, delivering justice to those who deserve it. She works alone. Always has. Always will. But when three dangerous men step into her world, that certainty begins to unravel. Hayes Knight is all sharp edges and quiet control, a man who sees too much and doesn't flinch at the darkness in her. Theodore Gray is as brilliant as he is perceptive, his kindness hiding a mind just as twisted as her own. Elias Hart?

But even as they work together, Raven can't escape the ghosts of her past, the secrets that keep her running, and the dangerous games they all play.
