Damir Unyielding. The storm that breaks men before they see it coming. A father. A killer. A Bratva lieutenant drowning in blood and regrets. I built my world on power and vengeance, carving out an existence where love had no place. Until her. Seraphina De Luca A woman with secrets in her eyes and a past that won't let her go. She fell into my hands by chance— Or maybe it was fate, twisting the knife in my already ruined soul. She needs protection, but I am not her savior. I am the monster she should fear. Yet, when danger comes for her, I make a choice that will change everything. I take...

This weekend I was asked to be a bridesmaid at my best friend's wedding. After arriving at the resort, I caught the elevator to the second floor with the man of the hour who was not the groom but his rich older brother, Stone.

Once he was my protector. The boy who carried me when I fell and swore to shield me from monsters. Until he became one.

I never meant to fall for my best friend’s father—the grumpy, gorgeous billionaire I should’ve run from. One broken-down car. One reckless night. And suddenly, I’m in Calder Thorne’s arms, breaking every rule without even knowing it. I thought he was just a brooding mechanic with rough hands and a wicked mouth—one drink, one kiss, one night we swore to forget. The real heartbreak comes later—when I realize he’s the father of the one person I can’t afford to lose. He’s older. Hardened by loss. Off-limits in every way. And when he touches me, it’s like he’s starving ...
