Description
I STOLE HER TO BREAK HER FATHER, BUT SHE MIGHT BREAK ME FIRST
My name is Anton Karolyi. In the underworld, I am the silence after the scream, the fixer who cleans up the messes of the elite. I don't deal in emotions; I deal in leverage. And the ultimate leverage is Zelda Montgomery.
Snatching her from that gala was executed with clinical precision. I didn't take her for money; I took her to dismantle her father's empire piece by piece. Locking her in my soundproof basement was supposed to be strictly business. She is an asset, a pawn in a game she doesn't understand.
But she was supposed to be fragile, not a storm wrapped in silk. Instead of cowering, she fights. Her defiance triggers a darkness I usually keep chained, and suddenly, breaking her spirit becomes more important than the mission.
I am becoming addicted to the very thing I should destroy.
Every touch is a battle, every look a challenge. The danger isn't the police or her father's mercenaries anymore—it's what I might do to keep her.
★★★★★ "I was hooked from the first page. Anton is terrifyingly cold, but seeing him lose control over Zelda was exactly what I needed. The basement scenes are intense and psychological. Dark romance perfection." – Amazon Customer
