From New York Times bestselling author Kristen Proby, writing as NATALIE KANE, comes a second-chance, dark Mafia novel in her Kings of Vegas series, Vicious King.

Carson

Seven years ago, my world ended.

My wife was stolen from me and brutally murdered. I spent five years in prison and emerged a vengeful, hateful assassin. I'm the most dangerous man alive: I kill without a second thought, searching for my nemesis and the retribution I'm owed.

Until the day I find out Rina might not be dead after all.

Everything I thought was true is ripped out from under me, and the hunt of a lifetime begins. Nothing surprises me anymore. But I'm not ready for what I find.

Rina

I've been on the run for seven long years.

Ever since the horrifying day I lost everyone I cared for at the hands of a madman. I escaped and ran until I found a stable place to land and blend in. With a job I love and one true friend, I finally feel like I can breathe—as long as I don't let my guard down. I never know when I might have to flee again to keep us safe.

I even get up the nerve to go on a date for the first time since I lost Carson, but I quickly realize it's not the right fit. I'm just not ready. I lost the only man I ever wanted, and I don't think I'll ever recover enough to fall for someone else.

But when my date takes me home, I get the shock of my life.

My husband is alive.

And when he discovers what I've been hiding, he'll be shaken to his core. Nothing prepared me for being in his arms again, but our challenges are just beginning—and someone doesn't want us to get our happy ever after.
