Onyx (The Elite Shadows #2)
Ursula Chang
Emma thought she had escaped him.
After surviving a violent relationship, she’s rebuilt her life—cold, guarded, and untouchable. But when her dangerous ex resurfaces, she has no choice but to seek help from the one man she swore she’d never need again—Onyx.
Onyx doesn’t do second chances.
The military operative knows better than to get involved with someone like Emma—stubborn, maddeningly beautiful, and impossible to ignore. He’s already pulled her out of danger once, when a science expedition in Romania went south. But now, protecting her means staying dangerously close, and the walls between them aren’t just crumbling—they’re about to collapse.
Emma’s past is coming for her. Onyx swore he wouldn’t get involved. But when the fight turns personal, will he risk everything to keep her safe?
