"He chased her once in silence. Now, he’ll tear the world apart to win her back." She was his secret. Now she’s the one thing he can’t afford to lose. For three years, Aria Hartfield has lived in the shadows, hidden beside Alpha Xander Stone, loved in silence, and slowly breaking. Then she returns to her rumoured mate, and Aria walks away. Pregnant. Determined to start over. Until Xander finds her with another man, one shattered table, one broken face, one secret no longer hidden. And for the first time. The Alpha begs.

Aria Ferretti has three rules: study hard, stay out of trouble, and never, ever attract the wrong kind of attention. Too bad trouble has a name — and it's spoken in hushed, terrified Russian. Aleksei Volkov is the Pakhan of the Volkov Bratva. He controls half the city's underworld with an iron fist, a beautiful face carved from cold marble, and sins dark enough to swallow the sun whole. He doesn't smile. He doesn't spare. He doesn't want. Until he sees her. Aria Ferretti crashes into his world by accident — wrong place, catastrophically wrong time — and instead of silence, she gives him sarcasm. Instead of trembling, she tilts her chin up and meets his eyes like she doesn't know they've ended lives. She is warmth and wit and danger wrapped in a university sweatshirt, and Aleksei Volkov, who has burned cities for less, finds himself doing the unthinkable. Keeping her. But the Bratva doesn't do love stories. And the closer Aria Ferretti gets to the man beneath the monster, the more she realizes — surviving him may destroy her. And losing her may finally destroy him. Some men are saved by the light. Some men consume it. Which one is the Pakhan?
