Violent Night

I live for the night.

From the moment I laid eyes on Layla, I was done. She brought warmth into my cold, dangerous life with that brillant smile and beautiful green eyes, and the last thing I wanted was for her to see the ugly parts of my world. When she did, I saw no other option. I had to protect her goodness, so I let her go.

A decade later, she reappears and the fire between is as hot as ever, but those flames aren't all passion and excitement. And when I find out why the girl who's haunted my every thought and dream is running from a dangerous man, I'm determined to make people pay, and to right my biggest mistake... letting her go in the first place.

But can I convince her that we're meant to be together? Especially, when I'm not asking permission.
