Passion is a perilous game
𝐇𝐨𝐧𝐨𝐫
My ruthless husband hunts me across the country and in my dreams. If he catches me, I'll lose not only my freedom,
but my sanity. I have to stay one step ahead, but he's closing in. So I keep running, straight into the arms of a man
who whispers seductive promises of protection and safety. One way or another, this race will end.
I'll risk everything for it to be at the hands of the powerful man who revels in my darkness.
But should the devil get me first, then death shall be my solace. May the best man win.

I've dedicated my entire life to protecting others, until I was betrayed. Seeking refuge in my childhood home,
I find it’s been invaded by a woman with dark secrets. She believes she’s too broken, too fractured to be desired,
which couldn’t be further from the truth. Let the demon who terrorizes her nightmares come.
In this tangled game of cat and mouse, I'm the ultimate predator, a force both should fear.

To catch a cold-blooded killer, you must become a cold-hearted predator.
Growing up in a cult had its perks—no devices, no drama, no decisions. But education, opinions, and pleasure were punishable offenses, and women bore the crushing weight of responsibilities forced upon them by the men who demanded unconditional devotion. Then there was the cult leader, Jonathan Walker. Master. Manipulator. Monster...and my betrothed.
On the eve of our forced union, my mother led a desperate escape, sacrificing her life for my freedom.
Her dying breath fueled my thirst for revenge, and for a decade, I’ve walked this perilous path alone.
Now I’m back and ready to take on Jonathan and his second-in-command
—the brother I left behind. But I'm in over my head and need help.
Enter Hunter King, an enigmatic hurricane. Vice president of a powerful Texan motorcycle club,
ex-military, focused, and precise. His sharp tongue delivers dirty words, igniting a fire within me as he
attempts to slip beneath my defenses. The harder I try to ice him out, the hotter his determination burns.
Hunter wants to pull me into the light, but where I'm headed, he can't follow. To destroy a monster,
you have to become one—and all monsters are destined for Hell.
He kidnapped me before the other monster could.
James Austin is the kind of man mothers warn their daughters about. A killer. A monster.
The last man I should ever trust. He turned out to be the only one I could. After years imprisoned by the horrors
of my past, I'm finally free. For the first time in my life, I have a home. Friends. A future. Then someone decides
I belong to him. He finds his way into the charity where I work. He watches. He waits.
He smiles like he's already won. While every instinct I fought so hard to trust tells me the nightmare isn't over.
Before he can make his move, James crashes into my life. He steals me from my home in the middle of the night and
delivers me into FBI protection. I think I'm finally safe. Then the safe house burns. With nowhere left to run and no
one left to trust, I'm hidden away in James's isolated mountain lodge while the monster hunting me draws ever closer.
I should fear the man protecting me. He's ruthless. Merciless. A man haunted by the blood on his hands. But the longer
we're trapped together, the harder it becomes to ignore the truth. The monster hunting me wants to own me.
The monster protecting me would burn the world to keep me alive. James is convinced he belongs in the darkness.
The deeper he sinks the harder I'll fight to pull him back into the light.
