Jude has a tender heart. Yet he was born into a criminal empire and groomed from childhood to step into his father's violent footsteps. To survive, he created a second personality. Ras is everything Jude isn't-cruel, remorseless, and utterly without fear, as incapable of love as Jude is of malice. But when Ras meets a ruthless socialite, he begins to feel a strange stirring of emotion, a brush of Jude's passion against his own dark heart. Meanwhile, Jude finds himself with a knife in his hand, the evil in Ras's soul bleeding into his own. As the walls between them crumble, they could lose everything-their lovers, their family, and their hold on the dark city itself. Coming together could break them…or make them whole.
