Nora Brooks has spent her life saving others - as a doctor, as a survivor, as someone who knows how fragile peace can be. But the night she crosses paths with Sebastian Rivera, everything she knows about safety, control, and trust shatters. He's dangerous. Cold. A man who built his empire out of silence and fear. And yet, the first time he looks at her, she feels something she shouldn't: seen. When fate throws them together in the aftermath of violence, Nora becomes the one thing Sebastian never thought he'd need - a reason to stop fighting and start feeling. But falling for a man with blood on his hands comes at a price, and soon she's trapped between the world she's always known... and the man she can't seem to walk away from. He wants to protect her. She wants to heal him. But love, in Sebastian Rivera's world, comes with consequences - and saving each other might cost them everything. Because sometimes, redemption isn't born in forgiveness... it's born in fire.
