A handsome stranger saved my life twice. My required consequence? My silence and my full surrender. The Big Apple. A city of wealth, extravagance, and danger. I found that out firsthand when I stumbled on a violent crime, an unknown stranger becoming my savior from certain death. But with all good deeds there is a price, the assailant requiring me to remove a bullet from his shoulder. I was a veterinarian, not a doctor, but I was given no choice. Soon, I learned my protector was the nefarious Underboss of a brutal Greek Crime Syndicate out of Philly. Stavros Diamondis was as alluring as he was dangerous, a chiseled man who reeked of passion. But when another monster almost ended my life, my savior also became my captor. Caught up in a turf war, I quickly learned I'd become a pawn. But even though I loathed the Greek God, with every sharp snap of his cane, every breathless moan issued because of his passionate embrace, I lost sight of the treachery. But as the danger exploded all around us, he became determined to protect me. And keep me forever. Publisher's Lord of Ruin is the fourth in the Lords of Corruption Series but can be read as a standalone. It includes spankings and rough, intense sexual scenes. If such material offends you, please don't buy this book.
