The city's golden girl falls heart first into a dark underworld.
I want two things in life: to be the leading ballerina in my academy—
And Max Butcher…
A massive, tattooed boxer, and renowned thug.
And my very first crush...
I may be a silly little girl to him, but he's intent on protecting, possessing, and claiming me in every way—his little piece of purity.
But there is more to Max Butcher than the cold, cruel facade he wears like armour. I know; I saw the broken boy inside him one day when we were only children.
So, even as I stand in the shadows with him, as people get hurt... as people die… I refuse to let him believe he's nothing more than a piece in his Family's corrupt empire.
There is good inside Max Butcher, and I refuse to let him live in the dark forever.
