Publisher's Synopsis
When wounds are healed by love, the scars are beautiful."
Ace
My flower, Iris, is the only light in the darkness that consumes me. When I found her beaten and broken, stolen from my arms, a rage like no other consumed me. I swore to track down every soul responsible and make them drown in their own blood. No one will ever hurt my delicate bloom again. With each life I take, each enemy I destroy, I am one step closer to bringing her the justice she deserves, the vengeance she craves.
For Iris, I will burn this world to ash, reclaiming what was stolen from us - our chance at a future together, free from the shadows of this cursed Mafia life. She is my weakness, my addiction, the only one who can soothe the beast within me.
Iris
Ace Kholodov is a dangerous man, a dark rose whose thorns have drawn the blood of countless. When I was taken from him, subjected to unimaginable horrors, I thought I'd lost him forever. But the fierce protectiveness that burns in his gaze tells me otherwise. This powerful Don will stop at nothing to track down those responsible, to make them suffer as I have.
I should fear him, fear the wrath he wields, but all I can see is the man who will move heaven and earth to get me back. His touch is my salvation, his kiss my only solace in the darkness. I am his flower, his delicate bloom, and I know he will shield me, with thorns and all to keep me safe, to keep me next to him.
This is the first book of the Thorns That Bind Duet
