Eva is hired to care for Luca's mother, a woman who suffers from dementia. It is Luca, however, that Eva will eventually risk everything to save... as the legacy that plagues him continues.
As the darkness swirls ever more tightly around her, Eva realizes that no matter how hard she tries, she might not be able to save Luca without losing herself.
Eva and Luca are thrust into a world where their love is tested and darkness reigns. Amid chaos and treachery, love and hate, Luca and Eva learn one important thing.
Love is dangerous.
But it also might be the one thing that can save them all.

*Excerpt*
Luca doesn’t speak, he simply pulls me to my feet and lowers his lips to mine. His are soft, yet firm, crushing mine, taking my breath, causing my heart to race.
My hands flutter up to grip him, to pull him to me.
Everything about him causes my head to spin…his scent, his strength, his piercing dark eyes, his touch.
He picks me up and carries me to the bed, laying me down gently and covering my body with his own.
“Do you love me?” he asks huskily against my neck. He pulls away and looks into my eyes. His own are such deep and bottomless wells of darkness. I feel I might tumble into them and drown.
“Yes,” I tell him simply. “With everything that I am. You know that.”
“Then all of this is worth it,” he decides simply, pulling my back into an arch and kissing the curve of my neck, worshipping my skin with his mouth. “All of it.”
He makes love to me several times, one after the other, time after time, as though he can’t get enough. As though he can’t breathe enough of me in, or taste enough of my mouth.
“You’re everything, Eva,” he murmurs to me before he finally sleeps, his body tangled with mine. “You’re worth anything.”
I sleep with a calm sense of well-being, filled with the love I have for this tortured and beautiful man.
I have to believe that everything really will work out for us. It’s the only acceptable scenario. Luca doesn’t deserve anything less, and neither do I.
