He wants the land. He wants revenge. Then he realizes the woman who stole it is the one woman he never got over.
She didn’t just run from the mafia prince.
She stole the land his empire was built to claim.
Michael Waters was raised to take what he wanted. Territory. Power. Revenge. As Bayview’s most dangerous heir, he wears black Armani like armor and rules the city with a smile sharp enough to draw blood.
But one woman got away.
Kate Peters kissed him once, vanished before sunrise, and left him with a hunger he never forgot.
Now she’s back.
And she’s standing between Michael and the land his family will kill to own.
Kate knows exactly what Michael is: violent, beautiful, ruthless, and powerful enough to ruin her with a single command. The smart thing would be to run.
But running from Michael Waters only makes him hunt harder.
What starts as revenge turns into obsession.
What begins as a war over land becomes a war over her.
And in Bayview, love is weakness.
Desire is a weapon.
And belonging to Michael Waters might be the most dangerous mistake Kate ever makes.
