Forbidden passion, blackmail and murderous intent in the cold, glittering heart of Manhattan.
Pagan Freemantle has spent half her life keeping her wayward brother out of trouble. After learning of his latest crazy scheme, she’s prepared to go to extreme lengths if it means no one gets killed.
Frank Mancini is the hitman hired to do the job but he makes the fatal mistake of falling in love with Pagan. Their brief, hot affair has repercussions which will change both their lives forever.
Richard Mason, the elusive millionaire businessman, watches them all from a distance and waits for his chance to wreak havoc, but he is gripped by an obsession so powerful it could destroy everything he has worked for.
This novel has an HEA, but if you have fallen in love with Richard and want more of him, he can be found in my Switchblade Romance series. (Three standalone novels in total)

wow, I have already asked when part two is available!
I purchased this to use as a leisurely read now and then when time allowed between working full time and caring for a small monster, said monster may have been slightly neglected for two days as i have struggled to put the book down.
i found Pagan’s character very relatable, her need to escape the tumultuous relationship with her brother, and how she managed to fall for someone she knew was trouble. i am hoping that she acquires the happiness she is longing for soon”
