The Russian's Obsession (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798233504082)

There are two kinds of men in this world. The ones people trust... and the ones people fear. Alex Volkov was never meant to be anything but feared. He built his name in shadows, in silence, in blood. Men whispered it like a warning. Enemies didn't live long enough to say it twice. Power followed him. Violence obeyed him. And love? Love was never part of the plan. Lily grew up in a world far different-but just as broken. A house filled with shouting. With silence that hurt more than words. With a father she loved...and feared in equal measure. She learned early how to survive. How to stay quiet. How to disappear. But she never learned how to be afraid of him. Because when Lily looked at Alex... She didn't see the monster the world bowed to. She saw something else. Something human. Something dangerous in a way no one else understood. He should have stayed away from her. He knew that. She was too young. Too good. Too untouched by the darkness that followed him everywhere. And worst of all- She was his best friend's daughter. Off limits. Untouchable. Forbidden. But Lily had never followed rules. And Alex had never wanted something he couldn't have. The problem was never whether he would fall for her. The problem... was what would happen when he did. Because in Alex's world, love didn't save you. It destroyed you
