OverviewHe doesn't make mistakes-until her. Nicole Brooks is new to Ulysses, hoping for some fun at her cousin's wedding. A little champagne. A few bad decisions. But her wedding date has other, violent plans-and the night ends in terror, gunfire... and a mesmerizing stranger pulling her from the chaos with blood on his hands and ice in his eyes. Dimitri Morozov is a professional killer who strikes without mercy. Cold. Careful. Controlled. He doesn't get attached. He doesn't leave loose ends. So when Nicole becomes a witness to his work, he knows exactly what he should do. But one look at her and everything shifts. Killing her isn't an option. So he keeps her. What starts as damage control twists into something darker. Hungrier. She's soft where he's hard; she's light where he's dark; she's warm where he's cold. She's a healer-he's a weapon. And yet with every brush of a hand, every stolen moment, their defenses begin to unravel. She tells herself she doesn't have to trust him to want him. But Dimitri? He's not stopping until every part of her is his. But she doesn't belong in his world. And when the truth about why she was attacked finally comes to light, they will have to choose-fight for something that was never supposed to happen, or let it all go before it destroys them both. Because in the dark, the only thing more dangerous than the truth... is the man who'd kill to keep you. Kept in the Dark is the second book in the Hitmen of Ulysses series of dark romantic comedies.
