{Book 2 in Falling Trilogy}
Carina never meant to get pulled into a war between a family of cold-blooded killers. She never even meant to start falling for her captor, but nothing ever goes as planned right?
Her pure soul begins to soften his heart of ice, only complicating things between the families. Will they make it out alive or will their hearts be ultimately separated?
Note- It can be read as a stand-alone but I highly recommend reading book 1 first!
