A fortune teller once told Mila she'd find a man who would take her breath away. She refrained from telling her it would be literally — while Mila ran for her life.
Having always done what is expected of her, Mila dresses the part, only dates college boys with exemplary backgrounds, and doesn’t ask questions. Not about her papa’s absences, or his refusal to let her set foot in her birthplace — Russia.
Suffocated by the rules and unanswered questions, Mila does what she’s always wanted to do: she boards a plane to Moscow.
She never expected to fall for a man on the way — one with unexplained wealth, tattoos on his hands, and secrets in his eyes.
But it doesn’t take long for his caress to become a rough grasp muffling her screams.
Revenge is a dish best served cold.
Unfortunately, a Russian winter is the coldest of them all, and Mila soon learns the only way to escape intact is to do the impossible — and thaw her captor’s heart.
