Condition: new. Pages: 318 Language: English. Wildcat thrives in the shadows of the Undercrowd, an elite criminal society where trust is a weakness and betrayal is currency. But when a bounty is placed on her head, she's no longer the one in control. Now, every assassin, thief and mercenary wants a piece of her - including Fox, her equally ruthless and dangerously seductive rival. He should hand her over. He should claim the reward. But Fox doesn't play by the rules either. Instead, he steals what matters most to her, luring her into a game of power, obsession, and undeniable attraction. Broken Rules of the Hunt is a pulse-pounding dark romantic suspense where loyalty is a risk, love is a weapon, and the ultimate heist might just be her heart. Are you ready to break the rules? 9789916427958.

Condition: new. Pages: 344 Language: English. The one fight she can't win is the one that ends in his arms. Every rule she ever broke was to protect her sister. Every fight she ever won was to survive. But nothing prepared her for him. Four years after faking her death, former MMA prodigy Stingray Jamie lives as Rook-cold, lethal, and buried deep in the criminal underworld. Her mission is simple: find her sister, kidnapped by the Russian mafia. No distractions. No attachments. And definitely no men. Enter Serpent, king of an underground fighting empire. All danger, no commitments. He's the last man she should trust-and the only one who can get her back into the cage when unexpectedly, their goals align. It's a partnership that makes sense, but what neither of them plans on? The explosive pull between them. She's chaos in his kingdom. He's control in her storm. Their deal was simple. Their chemistry is not. In a world where betrayal means survival and love is a weakness, their connection isn't just dangerous-it's a fight neither of them can afford to lose. Broken Rules of the Fight is a dark romantic suspense, part of the Undercrowd Elite series. It can be read as a standalone, with a hard-won ending and no cliffhanger. Content guidance: Intended for mature audiences (18+). Contains dark themes, violence, criminal activity, and explicit sexual content. 9789916432693.
