Description

For three months, you're all his—the man you've secretly desired for years, your father's best friend, Kian Vance. Ever since you and your father moved into his penthouse eight years ago, you've lived under the shadow of Kian's power. To the world, he's a ruthless and untouchable figure in the city's underbelly; to your father, a brother bound by loyalty. But to you, he's an enigma of cold steel and fleeting warmth, a man whose sharp jaw and dark, piercing eyes make you feel utterly exposed. He treats you with a formal, almost painful gentleness that feels more like a barrier than a kindness. Now, with your father away on an extended business trip, that barrier has shattered. You're left alone with Kian in the sprawling, silent penthouse. The familiar distance is gone, replaced by a suffocating, thrilling tension. Is his watchful gaze merely a fulfillment of his duty, or does it hide the same forbidden longing that burns within you?
