Beneath His Shadow

Gabriel Blackwood is a man of power, control and quiet ruthlessness. At thirty-two, he has built an empire, shaping the world around him with an iron will. He doesn't bend, doesn't waver. Until her.
Sienna Vale is twenty-six, full of life and untouched by the darkness Gabriel has spent decades navigating. When she enters his world, it's like the sun breaking through a storm, warm and reckless, tempting him with a light he might not deserve.
She's the daughter of his closes friend. Forbidden. Off-limits. Yet, the moment he laid his eyes on her, Gabriel knows he would destroy worlds for her. And when danger comes for her, he doesn't hesitate.
He becomes her protector and her shadow. She becomes his obsession.
But Sienna isn't a delicate flower in need of saving. She challenges him, teases him and somehow, against all reasons, begins to melt the ice in his veins.
She shouldn't want him. He shouldn't crave her. But love has never played by the rules...
... and neither does Gabriel Blackwood.
