Dimitri Petrov had one mission: protect and serve. He’s lived by the creed and would die by it. Working undercover wasn’t sunshine and roses, he was thrown to the wolves and then forgotten about. Abandoned by the organization he worked for. Without a way to escape he remained in place. Kept up appearances and became the most trusted man in the McCray clan. When he’s given the chance to betray the men he was sent to infiltrate, he seizes the opportunity and prays it’s his way out. Seeking solace in the Adair Empire, an organization he himself should have been seeking to destroy, Dimitri meets Daniel Corelli. A young man looking to rise in the ranks of a corrupt kingdom. What he finds is a brotherhood living by a code he’d come to understand over the years. They weren’t good men, but they did right by their own. When tragedy strikes, and Daniel is left for dead, Dimitri is left wondering what to do next. Danika Vashchenko wanted a normal life, one where she could be free of her family’s Russian ties. After meeting Dimitri and watching his suffering over Daniel, she quickly becomes stricken by the two men. Unable to deal with the possibility of losing one of them, Danika leaves, rejection burning in her soul. Once found, will she be convinced that they’re stronger together?
