She was fire. He was darkness. Together, they were destruction waiting to happen.
When their worlds collided, neither could escape the inferno they created.
Leah Blake spent her life chasing justice, haunted by the past and the scars it left behind. Raised to despise the name Jacob, she carries a darkness within her-one that fuels her desire for revenge. But when her path crosses with Victor Jacob, the very man she swore to bring down, she finds herself caught in a battle between hatred and something far more dangerous-desire.
Victor Jacob has lived in the dark for years, a ghost in the city's underworld. Feared, untouchable, dangerous. He's used to being hunted. But Leah is different. She doesn't fear him. She challenges him. And when her fire meets his shadows, neither of them is prepared for the spark that ignites.
As secrets shatter and truth comes to light, Leah and Victor must face the ultimate choice: destroy each other or surrender to a love that was never meant to be.
Some flames burn bright. Some shadows never fade.
And some destinies... are meant to be.

This is an erotic romance. Recommended 18+! Completed. Excerpt: His mouth was back on mine in an instant, the door behind us rattling loudly as he thrust against me. "Does the geriatric kiss you like this?" He mumbled against me as his teeth nipped at my already swollen lips. I pulled back once more, my heighted state of emotions, my anger taking over. "What if I said I don't want you?" A devilish grin took over as one of his hands slid along my thigh, under my skirt, his fingers tracing over the soft, damp material of my underwear. His mouth moved down to my neck, nipping at the juncture between my shoulder and neck. "I would call you a fucking liar." I tried to bite back the moan as his teeth skimmed my neck, before sinking in hard, his fingers pushing under the edge of my panties. He hesitated for a moment, waiting for me to stop him. I didn't want him to stop. One finger slid over my folds before pushing into my entrance, sinking in deep. He groaned in pleasure, his erection twitching against my core as his finger began to move.
