Tortured Hearts

Never fan a flame

All monsters dwell in the dark, but the most dangerous ones walk in the sun.
That’s why I protected Becca from the real me.
Because when you go looking for revenge…
Sometimes, it finds you, instead.

Providence is my peace, and Becca is my anchor.
When both vanish, my “working man” alias implodes…
Leaving a cold-blooded killer with nothing to lose.

This time, there will be no lies.
No masks. No pretending.
I’m the Devil in a designer suit…
And she’s my butterfly in a jar.

New city. Old threats. High stakes.
Forty-eight hours to stop history from repeating itself.
Becca thinks she’s nothing more than a Marchesi pawn…
A tortured heart trapped in a house of kings.

If she only knew…
She’s the wildcard destined to bring them all down.

*Tortured Hearts is the second book of the Marchesi Empire Trilogy. It is not a standalone story. Readers should begin with book one, Torched Spades.
