Six months ago, the most dangerous man in New York told me to disappear.

So I did.

New name. New state. New life in a town so small it doesn't even have a Target. I traded penthouse views for scrubs at a dentist's office and a car old enough to vote. I put Ransome Rozanov behind me, along with everything he showed me about himself—and about what I'd let him do to me.

I was doing fine, until I made one stupid, reckless mistake. A late-night login for one teensy little peek at a system I should have forgotten—because I still can't get that man out of my blood.

Unfortunately, that ping told him exactly where I am.

Now, Ransome's men are circling my grocery store in blacked-out SUVs, and the Bratva pakhan himself just stepped out of a rental car in the middle of Montana.

He's looking at me like I stole something that belongs to him. Which, technically, I did.

Because the secret I've been carrying for six months? It's his.

And according to Ransome, a Rozanov heir doesn't grow up in a small town with bear locks on the trash cans. He grows up in the family.

Which means I'm going back to New York. Back to the world I barely survived, and the man who still owns every part of me.

There's just one small problem: He got married while I was gone.

Vicious Innocence is book two of the Rozanov Bratva duet. The story begins in book one, Vicious Obsession.
