King of Envy (Kings of Sin, #5)

by Ana Huang

I could practically hear her smile over the phone.

I’d survived decades without her, but now that I had her in my life, I couldn’t imagine living in her absence.

We’re going to get through this. Not I. We.

“My definition is perfectly valid, and if you’re going to question my fashion choices, have the balls to do so out loud,”

The businessman and the criminal. The protector and the murderer. The man who could kiss me so tenderly one day and kill so viciously the next.

“I’m not usually a compromise person, srce, but for you, I’d agree to a thousand compromises if you asked.”

Srce moje. My heart.

“Plus, you saved my life. Again.”

“You saved mine.”
