The Carver : A Novel

There’s no going back . . . but does she really want to? Dive into the thrilling world of Paris''s underbelly, where power and passion collide, in the second book of the steamy Fifth Republic series.

I''m fully in this with Bastien now. The kingpin of all kingpins, a man who oversees all the gangs of Paris, President Martin''s right-hand man. If I were smart, I would leave, but I''m pretty sure I''m already in love with this man . . .

Adrien continues to challenge our divorce until Bastien gets involved. And like always, that man fixes all my problems.

But little do I know, the Aristocrats are out for Adrien. My ex continues to ignore Bastien''s warnings, which he only gave out of a courtesy to me. It''s not my problem, and if Adrien wants to get himself killed, that''s his prerogative.

It quickly becomes my problem when the Aristocrats target me instead of Adrien—because technically, we are still married. And I''m still the woman Adrien loves. I find myself in a world of trouble, and the only person who can save me is The Butcher. A French Emperor. Leader of the Fifth Republic.

The man that will kill anyone and everyone for me.
