A mafia king in exile. A hacker with a bounty. A wilderness that could become their prison or their salvation.

She’s a ghost in the digital world, brilliant, untouchable, until the day her enemies finally catch up. Bleeding and desperate, she stumbles into a remote cabin in the wild, expecting nothing but rejection. Instead, she finds him, rugged, ruthless, hiding from a past steeped in blood. To her, he looks like a survivalist. In truth, he’s the exiled heir of a mafia empire, a man with enemies as dangerous as her own.

He wanted solitude, not complications. Yet the moment he sees her fire, her fear, and her stubborn will to survive, he knows he can’t push her away. But fragile trust can’t last forever. Secrets fester. Betrayals burn. And when the world comes hunting, her pursuers, his traitors—they’re forced into a war neither of them wanted to fight.

Now, hunted by the same men who once betrayed him, their lives collide in a storm of bullets, blood, and desire. She may be the key to reclaiming his empire. He may be the shield that saves her life. But together, they’re a target no enemy can resist.

Love can endure the war they’re about to start?

Seeing her open up made him smile. "Why don't you go freshen up a bit? I'll take care of lunch for you," he said. After a short pause, he added with a laugh, "Actually, let's be real, it's way past breakfast time, so it'll definitely be lunch."
