"My brother is off-limits." That was the first rule my best friend Sienna gave me when I moved into her house. I should have listened. Because the moment I met Zayne Bellandi, I knew I was in trouble. Dark eyes. Dangerous calm. The kind of man who looks at you like he already knows every secret you're trying to hide. And the worst part? He looks at me like he wants me anyway. The first time he traps me against the wall, his voice drops to a low whisper. "I could ruin you," he murmured. "And you'd let me. You'd beg without even realizing it." My pulse stutters. My breath catches. And I nod. Because walking away from Zayne Bellandi might already be impossible. Which is a problem… considering my life is already a disaster. Eight years with the man I loved ended in the cruelest way imaginable— by photographing his wedding to another woman. Humiliated and broken, I run straight into the one place I thought was safe. Sienna's home. Her brother. Her rule. But the more time I spend with Zayne, the more I realize the truth. He isn't just Sienna's overprotective older brother. He's a man carrying dangerous secrets. Secrets tied to power, violence and a family connected to the Italian mafia. And the deeper I fall into Zayne's world, the harder it becomes to tell the difference between protection and possession. Because Zayne Bellandi doesn't just want me. He wants to claim me. The only question left is will loving him save me or destroy us both?
