Description

Tierney Callaghan knows there’s a price on her head.

And the man sent to collect it is Achilles Ferrante—the ruthless heir to the Camorra mafia empire.

Once upon a time, Achilles was the only person who truly mattered to her. But everything changed when Tierney betrayed him not once, but twice. First, she broke his heart. Then she handed him over to the authorities, sealing his fate.

Now Achilles wants revenge.

Deadly, relentless, and feared by everyone around him, Achilles has spent years building his reputation as a man who never forgives and never forgets. When he finally finds Tierney again, he intends to make her pay for everything she took from him.

But Tierney refuses to go quietly.

Sharp, fearless, and determined to survive, she knows the only chance she has is to keep running—because once Achilles catches her, there will be no mercy.

Yet beneath the hatred and vengeance lies a connection neither of them can escape.

Because before they became enemies, they were something far more dangerous.

They were everything to each other.
