When Alec Nikolai arrived in her city, Queen Viktrina saw something volatile in him and snapped a collar around his neck. Five years later, he is the crime lord in a city full of sin. His freedom was taken from him all those years ago, and now he has the means to earn it back. When he is offered a job to recapture the only monster to ever break free from an impenetrable prison, the answer seems obvious, that is until he gathers the other four that will help him pull off this impossible heist. In a world where heroes are few and far between, a group of outcasts will sacrifice anything to win back their freedom.
A fortune teller once told Enora she'd find a man who would take her breath away. She refrained from telling her it would be literally while Enora ran for her life.
Having always done what is expected of her, Enora dresses the part, only dates college boys with exemplary backgrounds, and doesn't ask questions. Not about her papa's absences or his refusal to let her set foot in her birthplace-Russia.
Suffocated by the rules and unanswered questions, Enora does what she's always wanted to.
She boards a plane to Moscow.
She never expected to fall for a man on the way. One with unexplained wealth, tattoos on his hands, and secrets in his eyes. But it doesn't take long for his caress to become a rough grasp muffling her screams.
Revenge is a dish best served cold. Unfortunately, a Russian winter is the coldest of them all, and Enora soon learns the only way to escape intact is to do the impossible and thaw her captor's heart.
