She was meant to destroy him. But he’s been her shadow for thirteen years.
Detective Susie Harper thought she’d finally escaped her traumatic past — until the devil himself drags her back into his web of darkness.
Viktor Tenev is Philadelphia’s most dangerous Russian-American mafia boss: polished, untouchable, and hiding a savage obsession that has burned for Susie since she was just a broken eighteen-year-old girl. To the world he’s a successful businessman. To her, he’s the man who calls her Ekaterina. His Malenka. His everything.
When Susie is sent undercover as a stripper in his exclusive club Moscow Magic, she walks straight into the trap he’s been patiently building for over a decade. Stalking. Manipulation. Blackmail. The lines between hunter and hunted blur as his all-consuming possession tightens around her.
Trapped between her duty as a cop, the man who claims her soul, and the dark temptation that could destroy them both, Susie faces an impossible choice: Fight the devil who owns her shadows… or surrender to the obsession that might consume her forever?
A gripping dark mafia romance laced with extreme obsession, brutal revenge, forbidden love, and a tender sapphic subplot that blooms in the shadows.
