Death has never been so tempting. Five years ago, mercenary Silas Edgeworth rescued Izabella Silversmith from a human trafficking nightmare. Now his crew's tech expert, Iz has rebuilt herself-though scars remain. When their hunt for a dangerous Aurora leader takes them to Istanbul, the attraction between them erupts into an inferno. Silas has always been her sanctuary, her personal Death who brings salvation instead of darkness. But as they close in on the elusive Gadal, the Aurora's occult magic threatens everything. When Iz is captured by the very monster they hunt, Silas will tear the world apart to find her-even as she awakens to the deadly power sleeping within herself. In Istanbul's shadows, the most dangerous edge isn't a blade-it's the line between salvation and destruction. Silas and Iz must fight for their future the only way they know how: dirty and utterly merciless. The only thing sharper than his knife is her wit. Together, they're unstoppable-if they survive. Please note this is a dark romance series with an occult magic twist, so be prepared for morally gray characters, graphic violence, swearing, and spicy scenes.
