The Pharaoh's Concubine

Beauty is skin deep. Only love reveals what lies beneath. As mob boss Yvgeny Mosko's open secret, Dylan Anderson is happy enough with a passionate, if loveless, arrangement that affords him a life of luxury. But at thirty-six, he wonders how committed Mosko will be to an aging lover. He finds out when a rival gang kidnaps him in a turf war everyone's sure to lose. Mosko unleashes deadly force, leaving no one alive except for a young man whose dark eyes tug at Dylan's heart-and the conscience he thought he'd excised long ago. Though he tried to stop the kidnapping, William "Memo" Escobar knows Mosko will use what's left of him to send a powerful message to his rivals.
When Mosko's pampered pretty boy risks everything to help him escape, he can't believe his luck. William figures he's better suited to life off the grid, but as the days go by he begins to realize Dylan's beauty is more than skin deep. And as Dylan coaxes more and more beguiling smiles from William, he yearns for things-like family ties-he'd thought were best forgotten. Yet behind their newfound happiness lurks the certain knowledge that no matter how careful they are, Mosko will come for what's his.
