From Amazon Bestselling author Michele Mannon comes a dark, steamy suspense about the CEO of an underworld organization and the girl who tests his limits of self-control.

Hayden’s everything I fear. A ruthless cartel boss. A killer. A stranger to this town. Yet, I went to him for help anyway.

They say wisdom comes with age. When you’re young, you do foolish things. Seeking him out—foolish. Allowing my headstrong brother to swear loyalty to him—foolish. Falling in love with him—reckless and foolish.

Yet I can’t help wanting him.

Now I’m under his protection, at the mercy of his whims, subjected to his control. Dragged into a violent, dangerous underworld I’ve spent years avoiding.

There’s a hefty price attached to loving a liar like him. Only I didn’t realize it until it was too late.

Author note: This is part one of Hayden and Luciana's story. It's really book one of the Deadliest novels. But it does end with a cliffhanger! However their story will continue in the next and final book, Bastard.
