Hateful

I was warned these three boys would be the death of me. I never meant to fall for the worst of them…

Fresh starts don’t come around often for a girl from the streets of this city.

But a fortunate chain of events has delivered me to the center of wealth and power.
And in the midst of three very different, very formidable cousins with the world at their feet.

Gage, Micah and Conner were determined to be my enemies.
So I braced for a war.

But they underestimated me.

I earned respect from one of them.
Friendship from another.
And I found love with the third.

Or so I thought.

Everyone who insisted Gage Silvestro was heartless had to be wrong.
He was just misunderstood, my unexpected soul mate.

I was fooled.
And I suffered for it.
A night of terror and tragedy became a crash course in how easily love can turn to hate.

Eight years have passed since Gage told me to go cry in a gutter and then disappeared.
Now he’s back in the form of a ruthless mob boss who stalks my every move.
I’d have to be crazy to give him a second look.

Then Gage nearly lost his life while saving mine.
And I learned the truth.
Our real enemy has been pulling the strings all along…
