She trusted no one before him. A mistake that could cost her life.

Nicknamed The Angel of Death for her lethal beauty, an ex-assassin cannot seem to escape her past.

DEADLY. COLD. STOICAL.

MARIA PÉREZ has survived the criminal underworld by following one simple rule: trust no one. Raising herself on the streets of New York City has taught her everything she knows, from believing the worst in people, to destroying anything and anybody standing in her way.

However, after escaping a world where the only way to leave safely is in a casket, she is constantly looking over her shoulder.

She is a heartless killer incapable of emotions. The last thing on her mind is love.

That is until she meets her match, The Devil, who sets her whole world on fire. He is the first to make her cold eyes burn. And she hates him for it.

RUTHLESS. FATAL. TEMPTING.

ZACHARY DI’ABLO, a notorious yet faceless gangster, sees straight through the cracks of Maria’s icy heart.

After an unfortunate incident leaves him fixated for years on a pair of emerald eyes, he vows to avenge his honor by taking away their life. Though, once he realizes his grudge has been one-sided, his priorities shift.

Once they meet, their lives unwillingly intertwine.

Or so she thinks.

Maybe she was right about not trusting people, after all.
