Molti anni fa, due bambini provenienti da due mondi agli antipodi si incontrarono per caso e forgiarono un legame immediato e indistruttibile, che avrebbe cambiato per sempre il corso delle loro vite... L’unico mondo che Salomè abbia mai conosciuto è quello compreso tra i confini recintati della comune che lei chiama casa. Costretta a vivere secondo le rigide regole del Profeta David, a capo del loro culto, e a seguire i suoi dettami religiosi, Salomè è intrappolata in un circolo di soprusi senza alcuna speranza per il futuro. La vita che la giovane è abituata a sopportare prende una svolta inaspettata quando un tragico evento sconvolgente le apre una via di fuga dal recinto della comune. River “Styx” Nash ha un’unica certezza: è nato per indossare la toppa degli Hades Hangmen sulla sua giacca di pelle. Cresciuto nel mondo turbolento dei biker fuorilegge, tra sesso, alcol e Harley, Styx si ritrova inaspettatamente a caricarsi il fardello della carica di presidente del club e a doversi guadagnare il rispetto dei suoi fratelli, così come dei suoi nemici. Sono i suoi pugni potenti, i silenzi sinistri e l’abilità con la lama che gli fanno ottenere la reputazione di uomo spietato, che è meglio non trovarsi a incrociare nel losco universo delle bande di motociclisti. In fin di vita, Salomè viene soccorsa per ritrovarsi catapultata in una realtà a lei del tutto sconosciuta, dominata da peccato e incertezza... ed è proprio tra le braccia di Styx e del suo club di bikers che finisce. Pur se il motociclista è restio ad avvicinarsi a chiunque, dopo quel salvataggio il ricordo di un incontro mai dimenticato torna prepotente nella sua mente. Tanti anni prima, tra lui e quella ragazza dagli occhi di lupo era nato un legame, una connessione che è ancora viva e nessuno riuscirà a spezzare, per quanto insidiosi i pericoli e i nemici potranno rivelarsi. Un’esperienza di lettura graffiante, ai margini della brutalità e del mistero. Una saga da mozzare il fiato.

I, Faith Parisi, love my life. I have the best job—resident sex-advice diva for Visage magazine—I have the best friends, and I live in the best city in the world. Things are pretty damn fabulous. That is, until Henry “Harry” Sinclair III comes crashing back into my world like a bad case of herpes. I hate the way Harry’s lip curls in contempt whenever he sees me. I hate his bright blue eyes and those inexplicably offensive dimples. I hate his stuffy English accent and the stick that’s permanently jammed up his aristocratic ass. More than anything, I hate that he’s now my boss. But my professional prospects start to look up when a chance at writing Visage’s big summer feature falls into my lap. Success won’t be easy. I’ll need to let go of all my inhibitions—not that I have that many of those—and jump, stiletto heels first, into a hedonistic new world. An exclusive, secretive world, filled with leather, latex, and Manhattan’s elite. Pulling this off will take every ounce of daring I have, and every ounce of focus. I can’t afford to get distracted by anything, least of all my new boss, his arrogant mouth, or the way the ice between us seems to be slowly melting away.
