The stakes have never been higher, and we’re both playing for keeps. Sienna: As a low-level street informant, I thought I’d finally gotten out and could resume my life, but I was mistaken. My handler had one last job for me. He wanted me to worm my way into the world of Nikolai Volkov, Slovakian arms dealer and all-round a very bad person. The first day of working at his mysterious Club V, I knew I was in over my head. Powerful, beautiful, and full of charismatic energy, he enticed me … and terrified me. So here I am. A girl out of her depth, being dragged under by the kind of man she most certainly shouldn’t be messing with. He says he will protect me, so long as I wear his mark and become his. At first, I try to tell myself I can play his twisted games, but as time goes on, he takes over my body, my heart, and now he wants my very soul. Nikolai Volkov is either going to be my downfall, or my savior, and I don’t know which. NB: This can be read entirely as a standalone novel. It is a dark romance.
