He makes plans. Long, patient, devastatingly precise plans.
For years, he has prepared for one thing: revenge against the Caine family.
Now he is walking straight into their world with a peace offering in
one hand and their destruction already mapped out in the other.
Get close.
Earn their trust.
Tear apart everything they built.
Then he meets Celia Caine.
Celia has spent her life surrounded by secrets no one will explain
and a family that expects loyalty without ever giving her the truth.
Adriano should be another man she knows better than to trust.
Controlled. Watchful. Dangerous.
Instead, he becomes the one person who seems to see her clearly.
She doesn't know that every step he takes toward her family is part of a plan.
He doesn't know that every step he takes toward her is pulling him away from it.
He came to destroy the Caines.
Falling for Celia was never supposed to be part of the revenge.
And by the time she begins uncovering the truth, Adriano is already facing the one choice he never planned for:
Finish the vengeance that has shaped his entire life...
or protect the woman standing in the middle of everything he came to burn.
Some things are built to last.
Some things are built to destroy.
Adriano built his life to burn the Caine family to the ground.
He never expected Celia to be the one thing he couldn't watch burn.

My 5 Star Review TITLED: Everyone watches !
Adriano Vale seeks vengeance on Gerald Caine and he's waited for years after finding his eighteen year old brother, Enzo left dead on a dark highway. Enzo was full of life, joy and laughter! He cared about people and it was real; people felt it. The Vale family was meant to find Enzo's body and it almost destroyed his family. But Reid is not only Adriano's right hand man, but also loved Enzo like a brother. Reid and Adriano were step in step when it came to bringing the Caine family down !
Adriano knows just about everything about the Caine family. Thinking he knows everything that he needs to know to bring them down. Gerald has a loud, proud, 31 year old son, named Theo. He is proud, eager and wants to be seen. He still doesn't know how to read a room. Nora is 28 years olds and Adriano knows she's going to be a problem. She does know how to read a room and he knows quickly that she is already reading him !She's sharp and calculating. What he hadn't counted on was the youngest daughter Celia being a problem. She knows how to read a room and people and although being quieter, she's not stupid! Gerald is a cold,domineering bully ! Charming on the surface but cold underneath.
Nora loved Celia in her own kind of hard way, barely showing it at times but they have both been trying to survive that house ! They love each other and know each other's tells. Their dead mother is the only one that truly understood and loved Celia unconditionally. They were a lot a like.
Such an emotional, intense story with plenty of surprises and a few "happy times" between Adriano and Celia before it looks like it's all going to fall apart.
Perfect ending and even better Epilogue ! P.S. I loved the eBook cover !
I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.
