Can the Brotherhood protect their own? Or is a stalker the least of their concerns? A woman on the run. A man capable of slaying all her demons. Can he teach her to protect herself before her nightmare catches her? Or are they already too late? Luca Stone isn't looking for love. He already had the love of a lifetime and lost her a decade ago. Now, his darkness keeps women at a distance. He likes it that way. Running a self-defense and cage-fighting training gym keeps him busy. Well, that and his side job as a contract killer. Soft and sweet has no place in his world. That's good because Honor Williams is anything but soft and sweet. She's a verifiable badass who put a violent sexual predator behind bars. But he's out now, seeking revenge, and she's on the run. Maybe she's not the badass she keeps telling herself she is. She doesn't date criminals, and she sure as hell doesn't date sexy ex-military contract killers. Honor just needs to learn self-defense so she doesn't end up dead. Luca just wants to help her stay alive. There's no harm in hooking up. It's not like they're going to fall in love ... right? CW/TW Luca is a suspenseful dark romance with dark themes.
