Patrick McLaren: CEO of McLaren Hotels. Helicopter pilot. Part-time adrenaline junkie who treats frostbite like a mild inconvenience. The kind of man who can silence a boardroom with one raised brow. Which is deeply unfortunate, because I, Georgie Fitzgerald, have been sent to his remote Scottish hotel to overhaul their IT systems. That means weeks of working in close proximity to him and his lethal combination of jawline, arrogance, and disdain. And I know exactly what he thinks of me, because the man doesn't bother hiding it.

Un matrimonio per fermare una guerra. Ma tra loro, è solo l'inizio di un incendio. La mafia russa e quella italiana sono in guerra. Una guerra feroce, fatta di sangue, potere e vendetta. Entrambe le fazioni sono spietate, inflessibili, incapaci di perdonare. Ma quando viene deciso di unire i nostri mondi con un matrimonio, mi ritrovo di fronte la donna più bella del clan nemico… e il destino spinge tra le mie braccia quello che ho sempre desiderato.

I was born a monster. Cruelty ran in my veins like poison. Raised to break others. When Aria was given to me in marriage, everyone waited with baited breath to see how fast I’d break her like my father broke his women. Breaking her would have taken little effort. It came naturally to me. I was gladly the monster everyone feared. Until her.

I’m on the run. Beaten and bruised physically and emotionally. I don’t know if my Master is dead or alive and people are trying to track me down. But I don’t want to be found. Especially not by the guy who violated me. Scared and hurting, I’m picked up on the highway by a bulky guy driving a shiny red semi. With a full russet beard, a kind smile and warm eyes, he says I can trust him. But, can I? With no other options, I climb aboard. And as the miles begin to stretch out leaving California in the rear-view mirror, I didn't know it then, but my healing begins.
