A hookup with a masked man who sent my cheating ex running down the alley? Count me in.
I never expected to see him again, least of all at my new hire orientation a few weeks later.
Yet, here I am, cornered by him in the breakroom. Ive seen the power these hands hold—the way they can go from damaging to delicate in a matter of moments. Now, theyre just inches away from mine.
Bowie, my one-night stand turned boss with benefits.
The more time I spend around him the more I suspect he’s involved with something beyond this investment firm. Yet there’s something so dangerously beautiful about this man, the same way a shard of glass shimmers in the light. If I dare to trace his jagged edges, I wonder how long it’ll be before they make me bleed?

Loyalty means everything to the family, second only to legacy. My father reminds me of that every time he points out I still don’t have an heir. As the head of the Chicago outfit, at the age of thirty-seven, youd expect Id have a wife and a couple of brats by now, but none of the women Ive met have been worth my time.
Until the night I met her.
She changed everything.
She changed me.
The closer we get, the more willing I am to trade my life for hers. The question lingers— will she willingly trade her normalcy for a life cast with shadows of violence? And if she does, can I ever truly keep her safe?
