In the haunting hush between waves and wealth, Sweet Like Violence tells the story of Ivy Morrin-a brilliant, soft-souled French scientist with calloused dreams-and Nicolai De Luca, the eldest heir to an empire born of stone, sea, and secrets.
She comes from a life of quiet endurance, where love is earned through sacrifice. He was carved from silence and steel, raised among marble halls where loyalty is currency and softness is a sin.
Their worlds collide on a forgotten shore in Italy-one drunken night, one mistake away from never meeting. What follows is not a love story, but a fate that insists.
Tied by invisible threads, they orbit each other through cities and choices, through broken mothers and haunting legacy. He watches her write herself into a new life. She watches him resist the one written for him. And in the in-between, they find something neither knew they were searching for.
But love, here, is not soft.
It is sharp and aching. It demands everything.
It is about love that burns, and a girl who never thought she was beautiful until the wrong man told her she was the only thing he'd never ruin.
But even ruin has rules. And this love? It doesn't follow any.
What if the one who saves you is also the one who could break you completely?

They took my wife, my heart, my everything-and I'll stop at nothing to make them pay. *** The police told me my wife was dead-burned beyond recognition, a severed fingertip the only trace left behind.

Women come and go, but they're meaningless. I'm a hollow shell of the man I was, running on cold fury and control. Without Chloe, there's nothing left. Then I got the call.
