VELVET CHAINS (His violence, Her name #1)

Some people carry scars. Others carry secrets. Lucien Moreau carried both.

Evelina Laurent never intended to become entangled with the man everyone feared. He was cold, unreadable, and surrounded by whispers no one dared to repeat aloud.

What begins as an unexpected encounter soon pulls her into a world where every smile conceals a lie, every promise has a price, and every secret demands blood.

As the line between fascination and fear begins to blur, Evelina discovers that some people are not dangerous because they choose to be—

They’re dangerous because they have no other choice.

And by the time she learns the truth, walking away may no longer be an option.
