-----------------------------------------------------------

Growing up, he was her only protection from the violent crime syndicate their families bore them into, and she his only source of joy. He was her first love, the only person to love her at all. She was his reason to exist, the one person he’d risk everything for.

That was ten years ago.

He never knew she'd protected him the only way she could by refusing to escape with him then. And she never knew he'd survived the fire set to kill him despite her sacrifice.

It isn’t until her name appears on a kill order ten years later that Mikhael finally learns of the decade of torture Alina has suffered at the hands of a man more evil than even he realized.

But rescuing her is just the beginning.

Now, with secrets too painful to reveal, and the horrors from her imprisonment still shackling her psyche, the only question left unanswered between them is whether the scars she bears are too deep for even his love to heal.
