Ivara Ashbourn never imagined her quiet, ordinary life would turn into a whirlwind of danger and passion. It all started on a stormy night — the night she found a mysterious man, wounded and barely conscious. Despite his cold demeanor and the danger radiating from him, Ivara couldn’t leave him behind. She took him in and nursed him back to health, unaware that she had just invited the most dangerous man in London into her life. That man was Draziel Everdeen — the powerful and feared leader of an underground mafia empire. Ruthless and calculated, Draziel had long abandoned the idea of love and trust. But there was something about Ivara’s kindness and unwavering sincerity that slowly cracked his icy walls. Yet love doesn’t come without a price. As their worlds collide, Draziel’s enemies close in. Erven Zevalier, his lifelong rival, sees Ivara as the perfect leverage to bring Draziel to his knees. And Aurielle Valliere, a woman obsessed with having Draziel for herself, will stop at nothing to get rid of Ivara. With danger lurking in every shadow and betrayal around every corner, Ivara must decide if her love for Draziel is worth the risk — even if it costs her life. Meanwhile, Draziel faces his own battle: can he protect the woman he loves without destroying her in the process? Or will his love become his greatest weakness? In a world of power, desire, and bloodshed… will their love survive? Or is it doomed from the start?
