30 parts Ongoing MatureLila Burns knows pain too well. Fighting a rare blood disease has taught her strength, but it couldn't prepare her for the day her fiancé walked away-unable to love her through the weight of her illness. Left with nothing but her fragile body and a heart stitched together by survival, Lila stops believing in promises.
Until fate collides her path with his.
One moment outside the hospital changes everything. A man cloaked in shadows and quiet command brushes past her, his presence stealing her breath. When his bouquet slips from his hand, Lila bends to gather it, only to be halted by the deep, velvety tone of his voice. He picks them up himself, plucks a single flower, and presses it into her palm-a gesture so intimate, so startling, it leaves her trembling.
He walks away without another word, flanked by two men dressed in black, luxury and danger woven into every detail of their presence. But Lila cannot forget the look in his eyes, the unspoken promise in the way he touched her hand.
Soon, she learns who he is-the ruthless owner of a criminal empire, a man both worshiped and feared in the underworld. Dark. Possessive. Untouchable. A man who has no business noticing her... yet does.
Drawn to him against her better judgment, Lila is pulled into a world of whispered threats, dangerous power, and desire that feels as lethal as it does undeniable. In his arms, she is cherished in ways she never believed possible-but in his world, love can be the most dangerous weapon of all.

Would you like me to turn this into a **back cover blurb style** (short, punchy, and marketable) or keep it more **novel-synopsis style** (lush, longer, and cinematic)?
