Into the Fire
In the shadows of New York City's elite, Camille De Luca is determined to keep her life intact. A high-powered financial advisor with a past she'd rather leave behind. But everything shatters the night she meets Damon, a dangerously captivating British stranger whose secrets are inked into his skin and menace is etched into his gaze. What begins as a one-night mistake quickly spirals into something far darker when Camille discovers Damon's ties to the mafia and his dangerous interest in her. Drawn into his violent, unforgiving world, Camille is forced to confront her vulnerability while resisting the magnetic pull of a man who thrives on control and chaos. Damon's intentions are far from innocent. He's targeted Camille to use her in his twisted game-a pawn to exact revenge on the man who wronged him. But Camille is no pawn-she's defiant, fiery, and everything Damon shouldn't crave. Yet even as she battles the forces threatening to consume her, Damon finds himself unable to walk away, even as the fire that binds them grows out of control. As their connection deepens, Camille must decide: Can she survive in Damon's world of danger and deceit, or will she lose herself to the man who now owns her every breath, even after everything they've burned away?Compleet
