Lily lives as the Princess of the Irish-American Mob, surrounded by guards who watch her every move. Kieran Hayes has protected her since childhood, and she once loved him for it. Now his constant vigilance feels like a prison. She craves freedom from the men who smother her with their need to keep her safe. Then Dare walks into her world. He sees through her facade immediately, recognizing her hunger for liberation. With one touch, he ignites something she never knew existed. He demands her heart without speaking, and she finds herself willing to give it. But Dare is really Demitri Borello, the man responsible for killing members of her family. If he discovers her true identity, he will end her life without hesitation. Lily knows this truth, yet she cannot stop herself from loving him. Their passion burns bright and dangerous, consuming everything they have left to give. She will love him completely until the moment he destroys her.
