Savage Crown Wren

He was supposed to be dead.

Three years ago, Roman Ashford was betrayed, stabbed, and left to bleed out on a warehouse floor in Montenegro by the patriarch of the Marchetti crime family. Now, he’s back in Sovereign Bay with a new face, a meticulously crafted plan for revenge, and a specific target: his enemy's daughter.

Valentina Marchetti is the brilliant, untouchable director of her family's fine art galleries—and the reluctant architect of their money-laundering empire. She has spent five years building an invisible cage to protect herself and her brothers.

But when a mysterious, striking collector walks into her gallery, the cage begins to crack.

Roman intended to use Valentina to dismantle her father’s empire. He didn't intend to crave her. In a world of forged art, dirty money, and fatal betrayals, the line between justice and destruction blurs. Can they survive the truth, or will the secrets of the savage crown drown them both?
