Power. Control. Fear. These are the pillars of Christopher's world. As the ruthless leader of Australia's most feared mafia, he has spent years ensuring no one gets close enough to be his weakness. Until her.

Soojin, is a disruption he never anticipated-soft where his world is harsh, innocent where he is tainted. She doesn't belong in the dark, yet she's the only light he can't turn away from. He tells himself to keep his distance, to protect her from the bloodstained life he leads. But the more she pushes past his walls, the more he craves her touch, her defiance, her warmth.

Loving her is dangerous. Letting her go is impossible. And when his enemies realize that Soojin is his only weakness, Christopher is faced with a choice: protect her from the shadows or pull her into his darkness forever.
