West Side Story meets The Godfather in this intense thriller from New York Times bestselling author Christina Dodd. A deadly blast sends a woman into hiding to escape a long-standing family feud…
Four-year-old Maarja Daire saw her mother ignite a deadly explosion that killed a man—and her mother—to save Maarja’s life. Maarja's been on the run ever since…
Now she rejects the ancient vendetta that ripped her childhood apart. She hides in plain sight as a fine art mover, transporting priceless belongings. Work for a new client brings her to the mansion where the fateful blast occurred. There she meets Dante Arundel, scarred and brooding, the Arundels’ ruthless boss. He watches her with dark intent…but does he remember her? Will he use her to take his revenge? Then she leaps into the flames to rescue his mother, and he recognizes her courage…and the opportunity fate has created.
When Dante vows to end the feud, his hidden enemies see the opportunity to destroy his power. Maarja refuses to be used, but what happens between them in the darkness sets their worlds on fire.
Bound together by destruction, Dante and Maarja must navigate uncharted depths of betrayal and loss to create a new beginning…before the flames of the vendetta consume them.
