My husband killed me on the day of our fifth anniversary. I died at twenty-five. Now, I'm back in my twenty-year-old body, on the very day he's meant to propose. He's waiting for me, all smiles and lies, but I know the truth—he's a cheater, a monster, and my future killer. To escape my fate, I make a desperate move. I run straight into the arms of the one man Nicholas fears: Matteo Romano. He's a 37-year-old billionaire and my husband's greatest rival. He thinks I'm just a scared girl, but I have a secret he can't ignore. I offer him a deal he can't refuse, sealed with a whiskey-fueled, rage-filled kiss. "You save me from him," I propose, "and I'll save you from the gold digger who's about to ruin you." He's a predator, but to survive, I'll gladly trade one monster for another…

A strong arm locked around her mouth from behind while something cold and metallic pressed hard against her temple. A gun. Pure terror exploded through her body. “Dare to scream,” a deep voice said quietly beside her ear, “and I’ll paint this bookshelf with your brains.” ------ 25-year-old Sienna Vale lives a quiet life among dusty shelves and forgotten medical stories, working late nights as a librarian in Skyfod University’s oldest libraries. But one rainy evening, just minutes before closing, she catches the faint metallic scent of blood drifting through the aisles. Hidden in the corner between the shelves is a dead body. Before Sienna can scream, a strong hand clamps over her mouth, and the cold barrel of a gun presses against her temple. The man behind her is dangerous, ruthless, and terrifyingly calm. Viktor Kessler, a notorious hitman with blood on his hands, has just carried out an assassination, and Sienna is the only witness left alive. Desperate to survive, Sienna swears she’ll never speak a word of what she saw. But Viktor trusts no one. Instead of killing her, he drags her into his dark world and forces her into a marriage designed to keep her silent forever. Trapped beside a man feared by the entire underworld, Sienna soon discovers Viktor is far more than a hired killer. He is the powerful and merciless head of the mafia empire ruling the city from the shadows. But Viktor isn’t the only one hiding secrets. Because the quiet librarian he thought he could control is not as innocent, or as ordinary, as she appears. As enemies close in, betrayals unfold, and a dangerous attraction ignites between captor and captive, Sienna and Viktor are pulled into a deadly game where love, obsession, and power collide. And in a world built on lies, the greatest threat may be the secrets they keep from each other.
