Piper Acevedo, the teenage crush I tried to bury deep in the shadows of my past. That is until I took over her family’s underworld empire, and she became impossible to ignore.

She’s a temptress, with her lips painted a wicked shade of red, luring in prey with a gaze as dangerous as it is seductive. She’s as feisty as a cornered alley cat, always poised for a fight. Yet, it’s her sheer determination to destroy me that has me so fascinated with her.

I can’t trust her, but my obsession with her runs deep.

I see through her attempts to manipulate me with her beauty. Two can play this game of deceit and seduction. She hungers for me as much as I crave her. So, I resort to stalking her every move and giving in to her temptations.

I tell myself it’s about keeping her close, holding her within my reach so she can’t screw us over. But really, I know I couldn’t stay away if I wanted to. She might be my enemy, but she is also mine to protect.

When the game starts to feel real, and getting close to her means unlocking secrets from her disturbed past, both our practiced facades start to slip. Making me want to protect her and her daughter even more.

I’m in trouble. So much trouble, but I’m in too deep to save myself now.

In a world where loyalty and love are never what they seem, can we find a way to be together, or are we doomed to burn in the flames of our families’ feud?
