Running from hell isnʼt easy. Especially when someoneʼs dragging you back down into it.

Belligerent, brash and always in shades of black, Ivana is hardly a lady. Hidden away by her father, sheʼs lived a normal life despite being born into the dark waters of New Yorkʼs underworld.

Heʼs cold, cruel and calculating, with a proclivity for destruction. Feared by even Made Men, Vasco is the boss of the stateʼs most leachorous crime syndicate. 

Ivana hates his crudity and possessiveness, but she canʼt deny the way her breath hitches at his rough touch, the deep timbre of his voice, and his dark, heated gaze.

Vasco hates her disobedience, her recklessness, and her chaos. To him, sheʼs only something to be tamed. And after he slips a ring on her hand, snatching away her future, she makes only one vow---to become his biggest torment.
