From the New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Rina Kent comes a scorching standalone dark MM romance set in the world of Legacy of Gods.

I’m hunting a monster.

The first time I met Yulian Dimitriev, it was hate at first sight.

He is brash, chaotic, a violence-junkie.

In short, everything I disregard.

As heirs to two notorious mafia organizations, we’re forced to spend time with one another.

The more I learn about Yulian, the deeper my loathing seeps.

Until I truly see the person within, and something forbidden sparks between us.

When tragedy strikes, our co-existence is cut short.

Forcing Yulian and I back to our parallel worlds that should never cross.

But they do.

And, once again, I’m dragged into the orbit of a man I shouldn’t want.

Two men can’t be together in our world.

But Yulian blurs every limit I thought existed. Soon, everything is in jeopardy.

Our hearts included.
