A fast-paced, enemies-to-lovers mafia romance.
Lena is a tabloid journalist with nothing to prove and everything to lose.
When she goes undercover as an exotic dancer at The Velvet Ace, she expects danger—not Dante Russo.
Dante owns the club. He’s controlled, observant, and used to people wanting something from him. Lena doesn’t want his money or his protection—she wants the truth.
As secrets unravel and desire builds, Lena is forced to choose between the story that could make her career and the man who sees her exactly as she is.
