Twelve Days of Vengeance
Ariana Cooper
They dumped me half-naked on a frozen road—
a gold bullet around my neck,
engraved with the night I failed to save a man’s life.
And the man who killed him… just took me home.
Dane Barrett.
Ex-mafia assassin. Scarred. Silent. Lethal.
He says I’m bait. I say he’s a monster.
But every time he touches me, I forget which one of us is more dangerous.
He keeps me locked away in a cabin of secrets,
watching the woods like they whisper my name.
But when the first gift arrives—
a bloodstained echo of his past sins—
I realize we’re both being hunted.
He swears he’ll protect me.
I swear I’ll never break.
But in his arms, vengeance turns to fire,
and the line between hate and hunger burns away.
Twelve days to survive.
Twelve nights to fall for the man I should hate.
Author’s A dark, snow-drenched Christmas mafia romance about vengeance, redemption, and the kind of love that bleeds before it heals.
No Cliffhanger! HEA Guaranteed!
