Captive Hearts (en Inglés) - sarah shah

Paris was supposed to be her sanctuary.
Instead, it became her cage.

Kim has spent her life wrapped in silk and secrets - the protected daughter of one of the most powerful men in the Parisian underworld. She knows her father is dangerous.

She just never thought she would be.

The night she's taken off a rain-soaked street near the Seine, she expects ransom demands. Violence. Fear.

She doesn't expect him.

Cold. Controlled. Watching her like she's a memory he refuses to bury.

Ron isn't after money.
He's after revenge.

She is the leverage. The weakness. The way in.

But then he calls her a name no one has spoken in years.

Kimmy.

A name from a childhood she barely remembers.
A boy she never stopped wondering about.
A promise made in the rain before he vanished without goodbye.

Now she's trapped in a chateau outside Paris with the man who stole her freedom - and the closer she gets, the more the past begins to bleed through the cracks.

He was supposed to use her.
He was supposed to break her.
He was never supposed to love her.

And when she sees him kissing another woman in the rain - watching her while he does it - something inside her shatters beyond repair.

Because revenge might have brought him back into her life.

But desire is what will destroy them both.

In a city built on romance and ruin, love isn't safe.
It isn't gentle.
And it isn't innocent.

It's a war.

And this time, neither of them is walking away.
