Deadliest Desire

MatteoDaniella is my best friend's younger sister-sweet, innocent Little Russo-and the one woman I should stay away from.But when she unknowingly marries a man who's out to destroy her family, she lands herself in danger she can't escape, and I'm the only one who can protect her. My first mistake? Insisting she move in with me.Because the more time I spend with Daniella, the more the light threatens to break through my darkness, making me want things I've rejected for most of my life.I should reject her too. Keep her away from me as much as from him. That's the problem with our arrangement though ... Her husband is bad.Me? I'm worse.I'm rough, ruthless, and nothing close to what she deserves. I can't give her the white picket fence she desires. But she doesn't see the blood on my hands, or that I'm not husband or father material. All she sees is the man who'll burn down the world to save her.
