"Love doesn't break you. People do."
She trusted him. He vanished.
Now she belongs to a man who doesn't believe in second chances-only possession.
π Sierra Alvaro Cortez was the quiet girl with quiet dreams. Until love betrayed her and fate handed her to a stranger with power, secrets... and a dangerous obsession- "I was his before I even knew it."
π€ Enzo Castellano D'Vieri isn't the kind of man who loves. He controls, he commands, he owns. But when Sierra walks into his world, she becomes the one thing he can't tame- "Love me, or burn with me."
π Rizzo Vitale-the first love. The liar. The ghost. Back from the dead and begging for forgiveness she no longer has to give- "You think I'll give her up to a monster like you?"
A heart once broken.
Two men, both unforgiven.
And a love story carved from ruin.

He is the man she should fear the most and the one her body betrays her for. As family expectations tighten around Enzo, and Kairo's secrets threaten to unravel, their lives twist together in a brutal dance of control, defiance, and forbidden desire. He wants dominance.

A former cage fighter and racer. Now, she is just a mental girl. She knew the danger, but she loved the thrill. The adrenaline that made her feel high, like soaring.

Alvaro Sanchez, a rising criminal backed by a powerful Irish heir, lives as he desires. He destroys. He kills. He cleans his bloody mess. His next victim, Delaney. He took what he desired, ruined her life, and buried her in a mental facility. Now, Delaney is racing against time. She fights not to lose her sanity. They drug her. They electrocute her. They mentally torment her, trying to make her admit to a crime she didn't commit. But she manages to escape, just to find a girl in the same predicament on her path to vengeance, and save her from an unscrupulous fate.
