Nico She shouldn’t have stumbled into my dark world. But now that she has, I’ll never let her go. Naïve, innocent, and almost broken, Cindy needs a protector. But she got me, brutal and ruthless, a man hellbent on his own pleasure. I’ll take her for my own, and I’ll kill to keep her safe. Cindy I have nothing. My father’s death left my world ruined. All that remains is my ancestral home, but my stepmother will do all that she can to take it from me. Broken and alone, things can’t get any worse… Until he arrives. Nico Andretti. A dangerous mobster with a soul so dark the Devil himself would fear him. He claimed me as his Cinders, but he treats me with disdain. His men desecrate my family home and ruin my last shred of hope. I want him gone. But then I realize he hates my stepmother even more than I do. Could my enemy’s enemy be my friend? Once I have his attention, we begin a deadly game, creating a strange new bond as breakable as glass. It seems I’ve made a pact with the Devil, and he just might burn my world to ash.
