From Asia's beloved romance author Faye Yu
comes a dangerous, steamy Asian mafia romance that will leave you breathless...
In the heart of Manhattan's Chinatown, where ancient traditions clash with modern power, investigative reporter Bonnie Lo has one mission: expose the city's most dangerous crime syndicate. She never expected to fall for Roy Kinn-the ruthless heir to a criminal empire whose mere presence commands attention.
With devastating good looks and a dark past shrouded in mystery, Roy rules Chinatown's underworld with an iron fist and impeccable style. His custom suits hide more than just perfectly sculpted muscles-they conceal the scars of a man who never learned to trust. Until her.
But when a young immigrant woman is found dead, all evidence points to Roy's organization. Now Bonnie must choose:
Protect the dangerous man who looks at her with equal parts hunger and suspicion, Or expose the dark empire he's built in the shadows of Chinatown.
