Dante:
I WATCHED AND WAITED.
Biding my time.
Making sure she was safe again.
Never letting her know how I truly felt.
Ever since the day I first saw her, she captivated me.
She has the power to bring me to my knees.
She makes me want more than I ever dared to imagine.
But nothing with Mia Michaelson is ever simple.
When our enemies come from all directions, when it comes to protecting her...
I won't fail this time.
I won't let anybody hurt her.
In return? I want everything.
More than she has to give.
More than I deserve.
Capturing her heart...it's reckless and impossible.
But most of all, it's destined only for the brave.
Mia:
I LET HIM SEE ME.
The real me.
And he didn't run away.
But every time we're close, I clam up.
Unable to let the words escape me.
I'm surrounded by people who think they know what's best for me.
But Dante plays by his own rules.
Never faltering when things get hard.
Never failing when I need him most.
He's loyal.
Fierce.
Possessive.
But when danger calls and the Medici empire is threatened...
Will I ever be able to tell him that he's the one I want, before it's too late?
