Beautiful Secrets

Cole Hendry: Five years I’ve been locked up. In that time, the Hendry’s massive drug empire was destroyed. My brother’s gone legit, and expects me to do the same. But that’s not our life, and seems he needs reminding. Nothing like a war to jog the memory. All I need is the perfect trigger, and she falls right into my lap. Mika Vasiliev, daughter of my enemy. Cute little thing, if a wee bit feisty. Dimitri will give me anything I want to return her. But five years is a long time, and I’ve missed having someone to play with....

Cole Hendry: Five years I’ve been locked up. In that time, the Hendry’s massive drug empire was destroyed. My brother’s gone legit, and expects me to do the same. But that’s not our life, and seems he needs reminding. Nothing like a war to jog the memory. All I need is the perfect trigger, and she falls right into my lap. Mika Vasiliev, daughter of my enemy. Cute little thing, if a wee bit feisty. Dimitri will give me anything I want to return her. But five years is a long time, and I’ve missed having someone to play with. Now I’m not all that keen to give her back. Now I’m starting to think war was a bad idea. Because, now, all I want is Mika.

Mika Vasiliev: I thought I’d do whatever it takes to get away from my family. But that never included him. I’d call him a devil but he’s twice as cruel. He says I’m his weapon, but he treats me like a toy. And though I hate myself for it, I play the part beautifully. I have no choice but to indulge his every whim… because there’s something he doesn’t know about me. That no one knows. And I’ll do whatever it takes to make sure my secret never gets out. Even if that means falling in love.
