Never fan a flame
All monsters dwell in the dark, but the most dangerous ones walk in the sun.
That’s why I protected Becca from the real me.
Because when you go looking for revenge…
Sometimes, it finds you, instead.
Providence is my peace, and Becca is my anchor.
When both vanish, my “working man” alias implodes…
Leaving a cold-blooded killer with nothing to lose.
This time, there will be no lies.
No masks. No pretending.
I’m the Devil in a designer suit…
And she’s my butterfly in a jar.
New city. Old threats. High stakes.
Forty-eight hours to stop history from repeating itself.
Becca thinks she’s nothing more than a Marchesi pawn…
A tortured heart trapped in a house of kings.
If she only knew…
She’s the wildcard destined to bring them all down.
*Tortured Hearts is the second book of the Marchesi Empire Trilogy. It is not a standalone story. Readers should begin with book one, Torched Spades.

Tortured Hearts is the second book in the Marchesi Empire Series. Johnny Malone and Becca Brennan’s story continues. Book one must be read before this book.
There is a huge twist to their story. To me a wow twist. I knew I was going to be left hanging. It is the second book afterall. I NEED book #3, the conclusion now!
I zoomed through this book. I didn’t want to put it down. Only a couple of months and the wait will be over, and I will get my HEA!
Oh, BTW do check the TWs there are many. But then that’s my jam and I really enjoyed reading Tortured Hearts. Tormented Diamonds is next.

Cora Kenborn is a USA Today Bestselling and Top 50 Amazon Bestselling author of over thirty multi-genre novels, including the Carrera Cartel Trilogy.
While best known for her dark mafia romances, Cora’s work ranges from angsty contemporary romance to edgy suspense to laugh-out-loud rom-coms. She loves exploring themes of love, redemption, and the complexity of human relationships while infusing sharp banter and a shocking blindside into every story she writes. Give her a brooding antihero who falls hard for a feisty heroine who isn’t afraid to stand beside him, and you’ve won her heart.
Although she’s a native North Carolinian, Cora claims the domestic Southern Belle gene skipped a generation, so she spends all her free time convincing her family that microwaved mac and cheese counts as fine dining.
