I don't fall for marks. I become whatever they need me to be, and I walk away untouched. My newest assignment should be no different: infiltrate the Marchetti empire and take down the twin brothers who run it, one legitimate, one lethal, both dangerously easy to want. Adriano Marchetti is ice given shape, a man who looks at me like a threat he hasn't decided how to eliminate. Rafael is warmth wrapped around a blade, charming enough to make me forget why I came. I was trained to survive both. Nobody trained me for what happens when the mission stops feeling like one. Now everything I built to protect is closer to collapsing than I ever meant to let it. I have to decide what I'm willing to burn to stay standing, and whether the woman capable of destroying two brothers can survive becoming exactly what they need her to be.

One wrong door. One pool of blood. And the most dangerous man in Lisbon set his eyes on her. When Alexandria Russo stumbles into a brutal execution, she witnesses Matteo Bellini — cold, ruthless heir to Portugal’s most powerful crime family — pulling the trigger. Instead of silencing her forever, he claims her as payment for her father’s massive debt. Dragged into his opulent penthouse prison, Alexandria becomes trapped between Matteo’s savage obsession and the haunted gaze of his elegant wife, Giulia. Matteo is a beautiful monster: possessive, merciless, and brutally addictive. He takes her with raw, unrelenting hunger — choking, claiming, and breaking her resistance night after night. As rival families hunt for vengeance and her old life fades away, Alexandria is forced to confront a terrifying truth: she’s no longer just collateral. She’s becoming his deepest, most dangerous obsession. In Matteo’s world, pleasure and pain are inseparable… and escape might cost her everything.
