The Payment

The Sordid Debt Duet is a dark tale of a man's journey to find justice for the death of his loved ones.

Her grandfather's debt became her prison. Her heart was the price...

Tatiana Polov was more than just a pawn in a game between titans—she was the currency that sealed a devil's bargain. Jarek Farrel, the Dark One of Boston's underworld, had orchestrated every move with the precision of a master player, wrapping her in promises of love while binding her in chains of obligation. The signs of his true nature had always been there; she had just been too lovestruck to pay attention to them.

Now, trapped between her Bratva heritage and the man whose power made even her formidable grandfather bow; she learned that love's warmth could freeze into hatred's ice. Her husband might rule Boston's white crime with an iron fist, but he made one critical mistake—he underestimated the woman scorned…

Jarek demanded a wife and an heir as payment. He got the first, but Tatiana would sooner paint her soul black than give him the second. Let him think he'd broken her spirit. Let him believe her submission. After all, the most dangerous predators knew when to play dead.

The debt might not have been hers, but the payment would be Jarek's to make. And Tatiana intended to collect—with interest.

Some debts can never be forgiven…
