A new twisted mafia series from bestselling author Lola King. She's only supposed to be a job, an organ to sell… not a heart to keep for himself.Lena knows the only way she's going to leave this young. Raised in a town ripped apart by gangs and poverty, she's spent her life fighting to keep her younger siblings alive. Despite working three jobs, she still can't afford the one thing that could save her baby sister's life. So, when criminal Aleksander Dolgov offers her a deal—her heart for the money to pay for her sister's surgery—it feels like destiny. It's a simple task for Aleksander. After all, he's known in the Bratva for being a violent man who kills more often than he talks. He's eliminated enemies with his bare hands. Driving a willing woman to her death? Easiest job he's had in a long time. But Lena isn't what he expected. She's never left her broken town. She's too curious. Too brave. Too alive. Lena Norris is nothing more than a job, but as long as she is under his care, her heart belongs to Aleksander. If only it could stop beating so loudly. Because when she's near him? He can hear it resonating in his own chest. And the closer they get to their destination, the more he wants to keep that heart for himself.
