Strings that bind. Strings that cut. She should have put him in handcuffs.
Angela is an FBI profiler, trained to read monsters before they strike. Then a famous conductor is murdered, and her investigation pulls her straight into Stefano Ravelli's world - all dark suits, dangerous secrets, and a violin that gets under her skin faster than his lies ever could.
He's the son of a crime boss. Beautiful, brutal, and far too good at making her forget which side of the law she's on. She knows he's dangerous. She knows wanting him is a mistake.
But when blackmail and blood binds Angela and Stefano together, staying away stops being an option.
Now she's hunting a killer with the one man she should be exposing, while every touch, every lie, every note of music pulls her deeper into something she may not survive with her soul intact.
And the worst part?
She's not sure she wants out.
