His touch ignites something in me, his gaze breaks down my walls, and ...

I swore I’d make them pay for my brother’s death. I never expected to fall for her. It was supposed to be simple—kidnap Chelsea, the daughter of one of the Dark Dogs, and use her to bring them to their knees. Keep her locked up. Make them suffer. Get my revenge.
