There’s no other way to think of the cold as ice Vasili Alexandrov, the Russian mobster who bought me from the syndicate who kidnapped me and my best friend Mac. It galls me to be attracted to the man when I’m nothing more than a possession, a body that was traded for money.
And yet I see so much more in Vasili than my street smarts and naturally suspicious nature want me to. I see a man who has been kind and patient with me, a man who seems to be hungry for me and yet hasn’t so much as touched me without my consent.
Can this man really be a mobster, a killer? I sure hope not because I’m on the verge of saying screw it and just throwing myself at him.
Why do I always fall for the bad boys?

I wanted her from the minute I saw her but duty comes first.
Rory is my soul mate, my one, the woman who has the power to bring me to my knees. As Shane Heart I know I have a good chance at getting my woman and making her mine, but as Vasili Alexandrov, the cover I’ve had to hold for months on an op we’re running for my boss, I am nothing more than a slick Russian mobster who bought her as a sex slave.
I can still win her though, I know I can, I just have to convince Rory that I’m the good guy who’s just bad enough to heat the desire I see in her eyes.
I hope I can do this because I have a vow to fulfil to Dane, my boss, my brother, but I can’t ever let her go. Not when she’s captivated me so completely.
