Olivia Andrews is the sheltered 22-year-old daughter of Marcus Andrews, one of the world's wealthiest and most powerful businessmen. Despite her life of luxury, Olivia feels empty and isolated, trapped in a gilded cage of opulence that her father's empire has built around her. She has never known true freedom or love, always surrounded by bodyguards and a staff that treats her as little more than a possession.
Adrian Vasiliev, 34, is a cold, enigmatic man assigned to protect Olivia. On the surface, he is just another highly trained bodyguard, but in reality, he is the head of one of the most feared mafia families in Europe. Adrian is ruthless, calculating, and darkly charismatic. Beneath his stoic exterior, he carries a dangerous secret - one that Olivia is soon to uncover.
As the attraction between them grows, so does the danger surrounding Olivia. When a powerful mafia war threatens her life, she is drawn into Adrian's dangerous world of power, blood, and betrayal. As their bond deepens, Olivia must choose between the man she desires and the chaotic underworld he belongs to. But with secrets, lies, and enemies at every turn, will their love survive the brutal forces working against them, or will it consume them both?
DISCRETION SERIES - Stand Alone - BOOK #7
Cyrus Mongomery. A retired world-renowned assassin with a resume as sharp and crisp as his aim. Taking down world leaders, gang members, and politicians was effortless, and although his career seemed promising, the elites breathed easier when he retired.
That is until the leader of the Bravta called him out of hibernation with a request for leaked information and the head of a traitor on the foot of his doorstep. Cyrus accepts the job and finds himself knee-deep in the world of the mafia. Learning the secrets of the traitor and executing him seemed like an easy job to get him back into the swing of things... or so he thought.
Estella Romanov. The partially deaf-mute daughter of Roman Ivanov, Cyrus's target. A writer by day and a reader by night, she lives in the shadow of her father and brother. She's quiet, timid, skittish... and a distraction.
Tasked with guarding the daughter of the Bravta traitor, Cyrus finds himself easily able to close in on his target. But the distraction becomes a bit more than just that as Cyrus finds himself captivated by the sheltered mafia princess. What was simply a distraction quickly turned into an infatuation, fixation, and then, an obsession. As his obsession grows and the dark secrets and truths of her home are explored, discretion is no longer a choice but a necessity... because now he's bound to her, and together, they are bound to discretion.
