Pretty When It Hurts

A T. L. Swan fan's next obsession–dark, emotional and impossible to put down!​

I woke up in the dark—drugged, bound, and fighting for my life.

Now I'm safe. Protected. But the man my father hired to guard me seems more dangerous than any kidnapper.

Kane is scarred, silent, ruthless. A fighter with a violent past and shadows in his midnight eyes. He shouldn't hold me when I wake up screaming at night. Shouldn't sleep beside me. Shouldn't make me feel anything but fear.

He says I'm too good for him. He's wrong.

But I don't want safety anymore. I want Kane's strength to make it my own. I want revenge.

And I'll pay any price—even my heart—to make the monster who took me pay.

Readers who love morally gray heroes will be captivated by this emotionally charged romantic suspense about a kidnapped heiress who falls for the brooding criminal hired to protect her, only to uncover a world darker than she ever imagined.
