Après ma renaissance, j'ai évité délibérément tout lien possible avec Zachary Lawson. Quand il s’est inscrit à l’université de Prestwick, j’ai choisi plutôt de partir étudier à Norell. Quand il a fait tout ce chemin jusqu’à Norell pour me chercher, je suis allée encore plus loin : j’ai bougé de pays en pays en tant que correspondante de guerre. Des années plus tard, je suis rentrée chez moi, main dans la main avec l’homme que j’aime, pour célébrer notre mariage. Zachary a été arrêté à l’entrée, les yeux bordés de rouge. « Pourquoi tu ne m’aimes plus ? »

Sebastian Manchini est un monstre déguisé en dieu grec. La ville craint son nom. Les femmes implorent son contact. Et moi ? J'ai eu la malchance d'être propulsée directement dans son monde. Je m'appelle Lily Garlo, j'ai 22 ans, je suis étudiante et je ne rêvais que d'une vie simple. Mais dès mon premier jour de travail, je suis entrée dans son bureau sans savoir qui il était. Il m'a coincée, m'a déshabillée et m'a dévisagée comme une proie. Tout a basculé ensuite dans le cauchemar. La dette de mon demi-frère envers la Cosa Nostra est devenue ma prison. Un soir, j'ai été entraînée de force dans une soirée fastueuse qui s'est avérée être mon propre mariage… avec Sebastian Manchini. Je n'ai pas remonté l'allée de mon plein gré. On m'y a traînée. Il me possédait. Il me dominait. D'un simple regard, il pouvait me faire tomber à genoux. Puis il est mort. Du moins, c'est ce que je croyais. Des mois plus tard, anéantie par le chagrin et une fausse couche – j'ignorais porter un enfant –, son jeune frère Dante est arrivé et est devenu mon seul refuge. J'ai recommencé à respirer. J'ai recommencé à ressentir des émotions. Et puis… Boum. Sebastian est revenu d'entre les morts. Plus dangereux. Plus impitoyable. Et il est venu me réclamer comme sienne. Cette fois, il n'y a pas d'échappatoire. Je suis enfermée dans sa cage dorée, prisonnière de son amour empoisonné… et une partie de moi brûle encore pour le monstre qui a ruiné ma vie. Il était le roi de la mafia – le doux poison que je n'ai jamais demandé, et l'addiction dont je ne peux me défaire…

BrancaN’importe quoi, je ferais n’importe quoi pour ma sœur, même me marier à Bratva pour la garder en sécurité. Je m’attendais à un sauvage vicieux et froid, mais j’ai une surprise.
