No Stars In Valmont
In the city of Valmont, beauty is a thin veil over corruption. Adrien Moreau, a determined journalist, has spent years peeling back that veil, searching for the truth that could bring down the city's most powerful criminals. But truth is a dangerous thing.
Lucien Duvall is one of those criminals. An enforcer for the Desrosiers Syndicate, he has spent his life following orders, never questioning, never hesitating. Until Adrien.
Their paths should never have crossed, but fate has a cruel sense of humor. What starts as a warning turns into something neither of them can walk away from-an undeniable, burning connection that both men know is doomed from the start.
As Adrien digs too deep into a case tied to Lucien's world, he unknowingly places a target on his own back. Lucien is given an order he cannot refuse: silence the journalist, permanently.
But when love and loyalty clash, when duty and desire rip them apart-what choice is left? In a city with no stars, can a love born in the dark ever survive?
