Ruthless Creatures

Lena Caldwell, a brilliant forensic accountant, uncovers a vast money-laundering network tied to one of the most powerful criminal empires in the city. Overnight, her carefully ordered world is destroyed. Hunted by ruthless enemies and caught in a deadly power struggle, Lena finds herself forced to rely on the one man she should fear most.

Declan Varley is wealth, power, and danger wrapped in an impeccably tailored suit. Cold, calculating, and utterly merciless, he should eliminate Lena to protect his empire. Instead, he claims her as his own. As enemies close in and secrets unravel, the line between captor and protector begins to blur, pulling them into a dangerous game of obsession, trust, and forbidden desire.

Amid bloody mafia wars, deadly betrayals, and an undeniable attraction neither can resist, Lena and Declan must confront a terrifying truth: sometimes the most ruthless creatures are the ones capable of the deepest love.

Love is a weakness in a monster's world. And when a monster falls in love, everyone pays the price.
