“Axel Devereux has always walked the fine line between chaos and control. At 25, he's a secret agent with a dark, turbulent past. Born to Helena, a woman forced into a life of despair, and Victor Devereux, a grieving billionaire oblivious to his illegitimate son, Axel was abandoned at St. Gabriel's Orphanage when Helena fled Victor's cruelty. Life on the streets hardened Axel, transforming him into a protector for hire. With his striking features-6 feet of commanding presence, stormy grey eyes, and a jawline carved from stone-Axel's charisma conceals the scars of his upbringing. But when his estranged grandfather, Elias Remington, finds him, Axel is thrust into a world of rigorous training and responsibility. His ultimate mission? To safeguard his half-sister, Celeste, and the one woman he can't live without-Amara Valentini, the fiercely independent daughter of business tycoon Lucian Valentini. Together with the enigmatic Renard brothers, Cyrus and Caleb, Axel must navigate a deadly web of deceit, danger, and betrayal.”
