Darkest Temptation

Revenge has been Valerius Medici's only religion.
Every deal, every drop of blood has led to one goal, destroying the man who murdered his grandparents. Taking Anastasia Smirov as a so-called peace offering should have been the flawless snare to drag her elusive uncle into his grasp.

But the trap backfires the moment he sees her.
One glance, and the cold machinery of vengeance begins to fracture. Desire slides under his skin, sharp and addictive. With every breath she draws, the line between hunter and captive blurs.

Now obsession wars with duty. His empire trembles on the edge of war. And the love that burns between them could be the most lethal weapon of all, one that might either destroy the Medici legacy or remake it in fire and blood.
