Worth the Darkness

Marilyn Lee

She was supposed to save his life. Not steal his heart. Dr. Maya Richardson lives by one rule-do no harm. But that rule shatters the moment a bloodied stranger crashes into her clinic in the middle of the night, demanding her hands, her silence, her trust. She doesn't know his name, only that he radiates danger, power... and something darkly magnetic she can't resist. Marcus Calabrese shouldn't have gone to her. He's the man men fear, the one who settles debts in blood and never owes anyone anything. But the moment her soft hands touch his ruined body, he's marked. Claimed. The angel in scrubs is his now-and he'll destroy anything that threatens her. She's his weakness in a world where weakness gets you killed. He's her downfall in a life built on saving others. Together, they're a reckless flame burning too hot to last... but neither of them is willing to let go. Her world is clean. His is not. But now he's in her bed. And she doesn't want to let him go. WORTH THE DARKNESS is a sinful, slow-burn Mafia romance where loyalty is lethal, desire is dangerous, and the only thing more forbidden than their love... is how much they crave it.
