“Hey, Layla.” I turned to offer her a soft smile. The dark lines of exhaustion beneath her eyes startled me, and I held back a wince. “You’ve been working more lately, haven’t you?”

Since this pseudo-war with the Rossettis had started a week ago, I admittedly hadn’t had the time or attention for muc

    LaylaIn the week since Vanessa’s attack, I’d been to visit her every day after work.I’d nestled her into a one-bedroom condo in Aldo’s safehouse, just a few blocks from the hospital. It was fully equipped and furnished, but the first night, I’d still brought back takeout.The way she’d dug in, I k

    “Did you ever find a place you belonged?” I asked, resisting the urge to reach for her hand. Instead, I reached for my wine, and she mimicked the gesture.“I thought I had …” She drained the glass, and I lifted the bottle to refill it. “But I was wrong. Turned out, it was just another man who wanted

    LaylaAs the weeks passed, the clinic began to take shape. We had rooms and cots. Bandages and antiseptic. Food, water, shelter. So much to offer, but the one thing we lacked were patients.“How is anybody supposed to find out about this?” Vanessa asked from the kitchen island, where she sat behind

    AldoBack in the sprawling den of the Marcello estate later that night, I checked my phone for the thousandth time. Naturally, Ethan hadn’t texted. It wasn’t like I expected him to unearth anything groundbreaking in a few hours …“All right, spill,” sighed Carlo.“What?” I looked up from my phone to

    Ethan wouldn’t see it the Batman way, of course. Wouldn’t be any more on Rossetti’s side than mine—he was a man of the law—but when it came down to it, Layla was right.Ethan wouldn’t label Rossetti a hero, but I’d never be more than the vilest villain in his eyes.“We don’t know what Rossetti’s gam

Probably the dim lighting didn’t help; the

    LaylaThe knock on my bedroom door startled me from the book I’d been daydreaming over. Why was romance always so much easier in novels? Any fights they had were always petty and over in a few chapters.I sighed, closed the book. “Come in!”Vanessa’s dark hair appeared around the side of the door. H

    The estate bustled with movement: Marcello men arming themselves, strategizing, talking shit, waving proverbial fists at the enemy, posturing, preparing for war … All the things men did. But still, they awaited my command.I stood at the head of the table in the grand dining room, where a makeshift

    Fear.Shit.“Where is he?” I demanded.Carlo jerked his head toward a nearby room. “The doctors are with him now. It was bad, Layla. The explosion took out half the building. We were lucky to get him out alive.”I nudged past him and into the room.Aldo lay on the hospital bed, his face pale, a deep

    LaylaAldo had missed another dinner.Or, rather, he was in the process of missing it. I sat at the head of the long dining table, where he’d normally sit; for some reason it felt wrong to leave it vacant. Beside me, Eli pushed food around his plate with his fork, and on his other side, Vanessa lean

    EthanI, once again, found myself at the precinct long after the rest of my desk-mates and cohorts had vacated for the night. I mean, the police precinct was never truly empty—it was New York City, so the place was always hopping—but the difference between day shift and night shift was, well. Night

    “But I’m funny and charming,” Ethan said, with a smile that was indeed quite charming. “It’s okay. I don’t blame you for not being able to resist.”I groaned, trying very hard not to smile myself. “This is the worst flirting I’ve ever seen.”“It’s not flirting!” Ethan protested, lifting his hands in

    So, I wondered, which of those secrets had made him Rossetti’s target?And how has Rossetti learned them?I turned in my seat to regard Ethan. He met my gaze like he knew I was about to ask something of dire importance and seriousness. “How did he know?”Ethan’s dark eyes blinked against the pain.“
