I’m not the lost girl he thinks I am. He’s not the monster they warned me about.
Drug enforcement isn’t just a job, it’s my passion.
Until another bust goes sideways, crashing everything around me.
Next, I’m sucked into a new world that leaves me with one choice to not only survive
but to become a princess:
Murder Connor Quinlan.
He’s not just the Irish Mob’s most dangerous unhinged psycho,
Connor is the one-night stand I can’t stop thinking about.
And I’m the one he’s been looking for.
Connor is rich, powerful, and a lethal heartbreaker,
who is on a killing spree to eliminate his enemies.
One night in his bed was all it took to unlock the blackness in my soul
and breathe new light into my own unhinged ways.
We were perfect and terrible for each other at the same time.
But he murdered my father, and he has to die.
Only, when he catches me, he gives me a choice:
Leave and his team will hunt me down. Or stay and spend the night in his bed.
The catch?
I get to try again.
But every failed attempt turns into another surrender.
To his rules. His hands. His hunger.
I don’t know if I hate him or if I can’t live without him.
When the truth comes to light, he refuses to let me go,
even if falling for the woman who was sent to slaughter him
will ruin his life in more ways than one.
