Synopsis

He betrayed her when they were in college. Now, he has to fight to keep her safe and win her heart again. Logan Maddox is a loner after a so-called friend destroyed the longest, most precious relationship he ever had. He started his business in an effort to hunt down the one woman who got away because she still owned his soul and he was tired of living without it… without her. Aoife Quinn once put her whole heart in Logan’s hands. The moment he shattered her trust and broke that heart, she had no choice but to run and hide. She was meant to marry a man of her father’s choosing, and that would never be Logan. She had given him her heart and he broke his promise to be there to protect her from the fate her family had in store. When she finally resurfaced again years later, she realized that the trouble she had been running from all those years was closer than ever. It was wrapped around her in the guise of a new fiancé with an agenda. The only person who could save her was the same one who let her down years ago. ❤️ Forbidden/Unrequited love 🖤 Morally Gray Hacker ❤️ Dark secret identity 🖤 Mafia ties ❤️ Friends to Enemies to Lovers 🖤 Betrayal & Grovel ❤️ A little bit of (Christmas) holiday spirit sprinkled in. 🖤 Novella Silent Promises is the third book in the Dark & Silent Night series—dark, emotional romances about the Maddox brothers that explore the razor-thin line between hero and villain.
