14 parts Ongoing MatureIris is the daughter of the infamous Pierre De Valois, the head of the French mafia, Le Milieu. After a painful betrayal by what she thought were her friends in the Russian mafia's Bratva, she returns to her roots, now hardened and determined to never trust again. At 19, she arrives at a private university near London, unprepared for the storm brewing as the same boys who once broke her heart are now her unwanted roommates.
Haunted by the trauma of a summer long past, Iris hides behind her walls. With a sharp tongue, a skill for self-defense, and a lethal aim, she tries to stay invisible. But the boys of the Bratva-Lev, Ilya, and Nikolai-are still lurking in the shadows, their guilt over their past actions never far from the surface. Her trust in them is shattered, but the dark desires she tries to bury for each of them refuse to stay hidden.
As she tries to carve out a new life, the dangerous pull of her past begins to resurface, and she finds herself torn between the anger of betrayal and the haunting attraction she can't deny. When her life is thrust into chaos once again, Iris learns that trust is a luxury she can't afford-but in the end, she may have no choice but to rely on the very men who once betrayed her.
Will she heal from her scars, or will her tangled loyalties and dark desires drag her down into the deadly world she thought she left behind?
