Izzy: Broken. Battered. Bruised. When my husband turns on me—dragging his friends into the assault—I run to the only man I’ve ever truly trusted. Enzo Russo. Feared mafia underboss. Ruthless enforcer.
My childhood best friend. The boy who once promised he’d always protect me. Twenty years ago, he vanished from my life without explanation.
Now I’m bleeding on his doorstep, and he’s the only one who can keep me breathing. But I’m not the innocent girl he left behind.
Enzo: I’ve only ever loved one woman. The one I swore I’d never touch—not with hands like mine. But when Izzy shows up on my doorstep, bloodied and betrayed, I promise her retribution. Slow. Brutal.
Unforgiving. I’ll destroy the men who hurt her, no matter what it takes. But Izzy isn’t just a victim. She’s an undercover operative. Her marriage was a mission. And the organization she works for?
It’s run by someone closer to us than either of us could ever realize.
