Deliver Me From Evil - The Augustine Brothers, #2

I wasn't supposed to fall in love with my wife. That wasn't part of the plan. From the moment I first laid eyes on Madelena De Léon, I felt a primal urge to protect her. Keep her safe. Her father had failed her. I would not. She is innocent, and I have no business taking her to my bed. But Madelena and I are bonded. Our destinies inexplicably linked. As is our survival. My past is dark. I've made many enemies and betrayal runs rampant in my world.
But sometimes those closest to you are the most dangerous of all. If I was a better man, I would let her go. I know it's the only way to keep her safe. But any goodness I had in me vanished long ago. I am a man condemned. I want what I want. And what I want is her.
