Overview

He was supposed to be a pawn. Not the person who’d unravel everything.

Forged by loss, molded by revenge, and sharpened by the brutal hands of the Black Cobra gang, Nico Gutierrez has been shaped into a deadly weapon. His only goal is to destroy the Altamirano family, whose patriarch wiped out his own.

The plan is simple.

Kidnap Sebastian Altamirano, use him as bait, and draw his father, Pablo, into the open.

But nothing about Sebastian is simple.

He’s spoiled, far too trusting and soft in all the ways Nico thought he’d forgotten how to feel. When he asks Nico to pretend to be his boyfriend to escape Pablo’s suffocating control, Nico agrees to it, seeing that as just another ploy in his scheme to get closer to the enemy.

What he doesn’t expect is to fall for Seb’s wild spirit and unwavering belief in something better. There’s a light in him that draws Nico’s darkness, making him say and do things he never thought he would. Around Sebastian, Nico isn’t just a weapon. He becomes a man dangerously close to wanting something more than blood and retribution.

As desire tangles with duty and secrets start to unravel, Nico finds himself at war with the only family he’s ever known, and with his own heart. When betrayal cuts deeper than any bullet, the question isn’t just who Nico is willing to fight.

It’s who he’s willing to lose.
