Lissa Piner shapes molten glass into delicate chandeliers, but her artistic gift masks a destructive power that burns as fiercely as it creates. When luxury hotels commission her work in Italy, she accepts the job as cover for her true mission. Her entire life has been built on lies, and now she has one chance to settle a devastating score. Casmir Prakenskii becomes her bodyguard, a deadly assassin who lives outside society's boundaries. He recognizes something familiar in Lissa's spirit, something dark and alluring that matches his own nature. Their attraction ignites quickly, but deeper forces pull them together. Both carry wounds from their pasts that demand vengeance. As their secrets multiply and enemies close in, Lissa and Casmir must navigate the dangerous territory between desire and destruction. Two people with so many hidden truths and burning needs risk everything when passion and revenge collide.
