Catalina D'Angelo and Mikhail Morozov come from worlds built on power, loyalty, and betrayal-and their paths were never meant to cross. When Catalina's brother is taken, she's forced into an uneasy partnership with Mikhail, a man as dangerous as he is enigmatic. Beneath their sharp tension and constant mistrust simmers a connection neither is ready to face.
As they navigate a deadly game of secrets, violence, and shifting loyalties, Catalina's fierce independence clashes with Mikhail's calculated control. Yet beneath the hardened exteriors, a fragile truth begins to surface-one that threatens to unravel everything they thought they knew about themselves and each other.
Caught between past wounds and uncertain futures, Catalina and Mikhail must decide: is their bond a fragile alliance forged by necessity-or the beginning of something real?
King of Ruin is a slow-burning, enemies-to-lovers romance full of danger, trust, and the kind of love that rises from the ruins of a broken world.
