THE MONSTER IN HER BED

She needed an weapon. She bought a monster. Now, her empire is burning-and he's the only one holding the match.

Morgana Cross is the undisputed Ice Queen of the city's criminal underworld. Cold, calculating, and untouchable, she built a ruthless empire on silk, steel, and absolute control. She doesn't do feelings, and she certainly doesn't do second chances. But when a bloody internal coup threatens to destroy everything her father built, she's forced to buy the deadliest piece on the board: an ex-black ops pit fighter with a four-million-dollar debt and a terrifying reputation.

Theo Mercer is pure, unadulterated chaos in a dark suit. A disgraced military ghost who vents his trauma through cage fights and terrible jokes, Theo has nothing left to lose. When Morgana buys his contract, he expects another blood-soaked job. He doesn't expect the icy, lethal empress who commands him to turn his heart into a warzone.
