Heartless Salvation (A Mafia Romance) (Wicked Souls Series)

Juliette Six years ago, I found out the man I loved didn’t love me back. Not only that, he thought I was a mistake – a regret. There was no way I could tell him I was carrying his child, so I ran. I left behind everything – my family, my home – just to escape him. To be free. Now, I’m raising our son on my own, far from the past I left behind. I’ve built us a life here. I’ve moved on. Or so I thought. But fate has a twisted sense of humor. The Universe’s latest joke? It puts me face to face with the man I’ve tried so hard to forget. The rage in his eyes tells me I made the right choice by leaving. But nothing could’ve prepared me for the look in his eyes when he sees our son.

Dean For six years, I’ve been drowning in guilt. Guilt that’s torn apart my life and led me to destroy everything I’ve touched. I’ve all but ruined my life. But I never stopped searching for her. My bluebird. The night she ran from me shattered something deep inside. I’d do anything to make things right, to undo my mistakes. It’s all I’ve thought about for six long years. But how do I fix things when I don’t even know where to begin? I’ve searched the world and found nothing. It’s as if the woman I love never existed. That is, until I’m forced back to the one place I’ve been avoiding for years. Home. And that’s when I see her. But Juliette isn’t alone. She has a secret – a secret that might obliterate everything I’ve ever known.
