Publisher's Synopsis
"This world I live in isn't one that builds strong relationships. It rips them apart."
Perhaps that was true, but nonetheless, I had fallen in love with him anyway. The man who had lied to me, the man I couldn't trust, the man who would never love me back, yet even knowing all that, I loved him still. His smile could make me forget all the reasons why I shouldn't. I was so easily blinded by the charm that was King Salazar. He used it like a weapon, and I was one of the many who fell under his spell. Accepting that I had nowhere else to go and running from the southern mafia was impossible, I gave in to my feelings for him. All the while knowing he would eventually break me in a way that my abusive husband he had killed had not. While he kept me locked away, safe from the gang bent on finding me, I had to sit back and watch him live out a fake relationship with the next Governor of Georgia's only daughter. We all know how that story goes. I'd read enough of those tropes in books to prepare myself for the end. When he would fall for her and, I would, once again, be left alone. Shattered beyond repair. *Please be advised that this is book two in a duet and is a standalone in the Georgia Smoke Series.
