The Degas Girl

Beautiful, loving Serenity Bishop is stuck in a living nightmare. Having bankrolled her scheming, false-hearted boyfriend, she expected their romantic holiday to end in a marriage proposal. Instead, he gifted her to Angelo Schiavelli, a twisted Mafiosi with a bent for torture. But Serenity's fierce intelligence and iron will are more than her captor bargained for. Despite Angelo having the whip hand, she humiliates him publicly. And her tormentor is about to lose control. Cold, calculating Zachary Schiavelli is an art thief, forger and remorseless killing machine who removes anyone who gets in his way. When his cousin Angelo insults him, Zachary is bent on revenge. As Angelo is protected by the family, Zachary devises a Machiavellian scheme that starts with claiming Serenity. Brought together in an unlikely alliance, Serenity and Zachary play a deadly game of cat and mouse - and everyone around them is caught up in the crossfire. This is a standalone. No cliffhangers. HEA guaranteed. An action-packed hard-boiled romance, populated with three dimensional, flawed and utterly compelling characters. The Degas Girl shocks and delights in equal measure. You won't be able to put this down!
