Five years ago, Nick Markovic found himself consumed by his quest for vengeance. The one time he managed to find peace was in the arms of Hayley Dalton. Being with her was like bathing in sunlight, and he ached to feel that again, but he couldnât. He gave his oath to Hayleyâs cousin Desiree, his partner at McKay-Taggart and Knight, that heâd never let his darkness infect Hayleyâs innocent world.
A spark she canât put out
It was years before that Hayley offered everything she had to Nick. After that one amazing night, all she wanted was to be his forever. Unfortunately, Nickâs reaction was to walk away from her and never look back. The warm and caring man sheâd discovered was gone, and after Desâs death, heâd only grown colder. But when Hayley finds herself in mortal danger, sheâs forced to seek protection from the man who broke her heart.
A flame that threatens to consume them both
Haunted by the women he failed, Nick canât allow himself to grow close to Hayley again. Running to stay ahead of the powerful forces that endanger their lives, they travel from the lush Garden in London to the glittering lights of Rio. As the threat against her becomes clearer, he realizes that to keep her safe he must confront the demons from his past, even if it costs him a future with the woman he loves.
