Xena N Smith

A monster grips the city in his iron fist. The media calls him El Santo. I prefer El Diablo - the devil. My obsession with the gorgeous Dominic Alvarez will be his demise. I crave the look in his captivating dark eyes while I crush his even darker soul. I refuse to become like the others; the women whose hearts stop at the sight of him. Those women lost themselves in the allure and temptation of El Santo before they could feel the danger of El Diablo. The time for redemption is now.

I never dreamt of another life or another man...not until today. I love everything about my husband, Vassili Resnov, except for the person he is becoming. Though the fighter was never an easy man to love, that just made me love him harder. Like me, he's torn, too. Torn between the life he built for us and our baby, and his rights to the Bratva. The Resnovs split into two factions. Vassili is forced to join his father and become the devil, or his sister, the devil incarnate. His actions have left me with two choices: Keep holding on to Vassili, with all of me and live.
