I'm the villain in most people's stories. Ruthless, wealthy-the O'Reagan name demands respect. No one would ever call me reckless. But when I discover my maid, Luna, bearing bruises left by her so-called boyfriend, I snap. There's a fragile beauty to her innocence, and her vulnerability does something to me I can't ignore. So I take matters-and the law-into my own hands. In broad daylight, I walk right up to her boyfriend and pull the trigger, ending his life and starting a war I hadn't anticipated. He was the son of a powerful gangster, a man who wants Luna back and vengeance for his son's death. But he's getting neither. Luna is mine now. And I'll scorch the earth to keep her.
