Synopsis:
He has an ice heart… but for her, he could burn the world. Alex Volkov is a demon blessed with the face of an angel and accursed with a past from which he cannot escape. Driven by a tragedy that has haunted him for most of his life, his relentless pursuit of success and revenge leaves little room for heartfelt questions. But when he is forced to take care of his best friend’s sister, he begins to feel something in his chest: a fissure. A melt. A fire that would end his world the way he knew it. Ava Chen is a free spirit trapped in childhood nightmares that she cannot recall. But despite her broken past, she’s never stopped seeing the beauty of the world… including the heart beneath the icy exterior of a man she shouldn’t want. His brother’s greatest friend. Her neighbor. Her savior and her downfall. Their love is a love that wasn’t supposed to happen, but when it does, it unlocks secrets that could destroy them both… and everything they care about.

This book has a dual point of view, so we get to know both perspectives. There’s plenty of banter. Ava Chen is a photography student living with her brother Josh. He is a medical student, and he has to spend a year abroad for his studies. He doesn’t want to leave her home alone. So he asks his best friend Alex Volkov to temporarily live with her. The chemistry between them is amazing. The tension between them is thick. This book has a lot of steam and angst too. Both of their pasts were a mystery. One remembers everything and one doesn’t remember it. Alex is on a path for revenge, and Ava wants to remember her memories.

Twisted love quotes
- If you wanted, I would burn down the world for you.
- “You are the light to my dark, Sunshine, he said in a raw voice. His lips brushed against mine as he spoke. “Without you, I’m lost.”
- “She felt like heaven to my hell, the closest I’d ever get to salvation, and yet I still wanted to drag her into the depths of Hades with me.”
- “Alex gripped my chin and brought my gaze to his. “What did I tell you? You’re mine, Sunshine. You’re never touching another man unless you want him six feet in the ground. So yes, we’re f**king exclusive.”
- I’d do anything for you. No matter how twisted or impossible.
