Mikhail Reznikov doesn’t fall in love—he takes, and he keeps.
I learned that the first night he put a gun on the table and asked if I trusted him.
Every rule I had, he broke. Every fear, he fed until it turned into want.
He’s not the man you marry; he’s the one you survive.
But I didn’t come here to survive. I came to find out what happens when you stop pretending you’re good.

Alina was supposed to be leverage. A name, a debt, a transaction.
Then she looked at me like she already knew what I’d done and loved me anyway.

The world thinks I own her—they’re wrong.
She owns me, and she doesn’t even realize it yet.
This is the first book in The Dark Vows Series. Reading Order: Bound in Sin, Ruled by Sin.
