When a ruthless crime boss decides a failing distillery owner owes him a massive debt, he sets his sights on collecting what he believes is rightfully his—and what he wants most is her. Lachlan Mount is used to getting everything he demands, but Keira Kilgore isn't about to become anyone's property without a fight, even if she can't deny the dark, dangerous pull between them. As their high-stakes game of power and seduction unfolds in the shadows of New Orleans, lines blur between ownership and desire, control and surrender. This is a deliciously dark alpha romance that'll have you swooning over an unapologetic antihero while biting your nails over what comes next.
