It is better to run when you have the chance.

Farida has never been allowed to trust anyone. Her father’s cruelty taught her that all men are dangerous. All her life, she knows more about fear than love. In Kuala Lumpur she might be far from home, but not far enough from her father’s grip. That is where she catches the attention of a man who does not ask permission.

Alessandro does not chase. He takes.

As underboss of the Kardeşlik crime syndicate and third in command of the city’s Cosa Nostra family, he answers to no one. When he sees Farida, he does not see a shy, sheltered girl. He sees a ghost from his past — a woman he once loved and lost. Life has given him a second chance.

He will not waste it.

She tries to resist. His accent, his touch, the way he looks at her like she already belongs to him. But Alessandro never takes no for an answer.

From Dusk Till Dawn is the first book in the Redmption trilogy. Each book can be read as a standalone. If you crave slow-burn tension, morally gray men, and heroines who learn that fear and desire can feel the same, step into Kuala Lumpur’s underworld.

Contains scenes of violence, psychological abuse, and domestic trauma. Reader discretion advised.
