Deadliest Desire

From USA Today Bestselling author Nikki Ash comes a brother's best friend, age gap, small town romance … Matteo She’s my best friend’s little sister. Sweet, innocent, Little Russo… everything I swore I’d stay away from. But when Daniella unknowingly marries a man who’s out to destroy her family, she lands herself in a danger she can’t escape and I’m the only one who can protect her. I’m rough, ruthless, and nothing close to the man she deserves. I can’t give her the white picket fence she craves. But she doesn’t see the blood on my hands or the failure of a man who isn’t husband or father material. All she sees is the man who’ll burn the world down to save her. The more time I spend with her, the more the light threatens to break through my darkness, making me want the things I’ve spent my life rejecting. I should reject her, too. Protect her from me as much as from him. But that's the thing about our arrangement... Her husband is bad. But me? I'm worse.
