Cruel Betrayal by Kira Cole

I should’ve stayed away from the underground ring.
I should’ve listened when everyone told me Ezra Hale is a monster carved from violence and vengeance.
But the first time I watched him fight—
the crack of bone, the blood on his knuckles, the look in his eyes when he found me in the crowd—
I knew I was already too far gone.
Ezra is dangerous.
Unhinged.
Capable of snapping a man’s neck without hesitation… and he’s told me exactly what he could do to me if he ever lost control.
And yet I keep running toward him.
Even when my family demands I cut him out.
Even when his enemies circle closer every day.
Even when I learn the truth—
Ezra is being pushed into fights designed to kill him, and if he refuses… they’ll use me to force his hand.
Soon I’ll have to choose:
my blood family…
or the violent, broken boy who somehow stole my heart.
Either way, I lose something.
But losing Ezra?
That might destroy me completely.
