She sent his father's men to prison. His cartel kidnapped her for revenge. Now Alejandro Vargas must choose between the empire he was born to rule and the forbidden love that could destroy it. Alejandro Vargas was raised to be feared. At thirty, he is the ruthless heir to one of Mexico’s most powerful cartels. A man who has never questioned his father’s orders. A man who has never allowed anyone to become his weakness. Until her. One witness. One testimony. Several powerful men behind bars. And a young American woman dragged across the border into Mexico to pay for it. She was never supposed to leave the Vargas estate. Alejandro was never supposed to care. He was supposed to hate her. And he did. At first. There will be hatred. Brutal confrontations. Dangerous silences. Eyes that linger too long. Words meant to wound. Feelings neither of them can afford. There will be violence. Betrayal. Jealousy. Longing. And a love that could cost Alejandro everything. Because his father wants her punished. His cartel wants her broken. And the man destined to inherit it all is beginning to want the one thing he was never meant to have. Her heart. But loving her means betraying his blood. And keeping her means becoming the very monster she has every reason to hate.
