The de Vincent brothers are back-and so is the intrigue that surrounds them-in New York Times
bestselling author Jennifer L. Armentrout's sizzling new novel . . . Nicolette Bresson never
thought she'd return to the de Vincents' bayou compound. It's where her parents work where
Nikki grew up . . . and where she got her heart broken by Gabriel de Vincent himself. Yet here
she is filling in for her sick mother. Avoiding Gabe should be easy especially when so much
of Nikki's time is spent trying not to be stabbed in the back by the malicious hangers-on who
frequent the mansion. But escaping memories of Gabe much less his smoking-hot presence is
harder than expected-especially since he seems determined to be in Nikki's space as much as
possible. Gabriel spent years beating himself up over his last encounter with Nikki. He'd
wanted her then but for reasons that were bad for both of them. Things have now changed. Gabe
sees more than a girl he's known forever he sees a smart talented and heartbreakingly
beautiful woman . . . one who's being stalked from the shadows. Now Gabe will do anything to
keep Nikki safe-and to stop the de Vincent curse from striking again.
