He raised her. Now he's forced to marry her. And he swears he'll never love her-until he does.
When Ciara Monroe's mother dies suddenly, she's sent to live with her mother's ex-boyfriend, Warren Peace-a powerful, ruthless man nearly twice her age. He's not her father, but the way he watches her, protects her, controls her-it feels like something much darker.
At nineteen, Ciara is defiant, beautiful, and aching for someone to truly see her. Warren, thirty-six and dark-skinned with a past steeped in secrets, sees her as the one thing he should never want-and the one thing he can't let go of. For years, he kept his distance. But a clause in her mother's will changes everything: he must marry Ciara or lose everything he's built.
Ciara thinks she can bend him. Warren thinks he can break her.
But obsession doesn't bend. And love born in shadows always demands blood.
As truths unravel-about who Ciara really is and what Warren has done to protect her-their twisted bond deepens. But desire this forbidden always comes with consequences.
