The crowns of Forsyth Royalty aren't built with jewels. They're forged in blood and sacrifice. He's my captor. The man that holds the keys to my cage. And he's obsessed with me. Nick Bruin is two hundred pounds of inked, imposing muscle. He's just another lost Royal of Forsyth-a fighter. A killer. A schemer. He won't rest until he makes me his own, and he can't do that without going back home, securing his title, and reuniting with his brothers. Remington Maddox, a tattoo artist with a razor-sharp smile and frantic eyes. He battles his demons in a hurricane of hard touches and whispered words. By the time Remy's done marking me, I'm not sure there'll be anything left to call my own. Sy Perilini, with his malevolent stare and bitter tongue, hates me just for being female. It's easier, knowing that he could never want me. If being the object of Sy's resentment is bad, then being the object of his desire just might be my undoing. Dukes of Ruin is book 4 in the contemporary, dark, reverse harem, trauma-romance, Royals of Forsyth U series by best-selling authors, Angel Lawson and Samantha Rue.
