Is almost losing everything enough to change a man?
My husband is about to lose everything he’s worked so hard to keep.
His empire.
His daughter.
Me.
I can’t love a man who does the things that Viktor does. I can’t belong to him, not in the way I want to. It doesn’t matter what he’s awakened in me, or how much I crave him. How much my heart wants him.
Or at least, that’s what I tell myself.
But the danger Viktor poses to my heart isn’t all we’re facing. Alexei is coming. For me, for Sofia, for Ana, to wipe out the men of the three families and take it all for himself. If he takes me, I know that Viktor won’t rest until he saves me. But what I want more than anything is for Viktor to save himself.
I want him to become the man that I know he can be—so that I can become everything I long to be for him.
His lover.
His wife.
His beloved bride.
