My life implodes when arsonist, Johnny Malone, shows up at my office, flipping a playing card between his fingers like I’m wasting his time. 

Me—his court-appointed psychiatrist.

The one tasked with controlling his deadly “urges.”

The one whose questions he evades every visit…

All while undressing me with sinful eyes that drown me in forbidden lust.

I fight to keep things professional, but ethical lines blur, and his charm overshadows his inner demons.

Ones with no family, no friends, and no past…

Just a standing Tuesday appointment.

He’s hiding from something…

And I intend to find out what.

I’ve always had strict rules about men:

No liars. No patients. No criminals.

In one afternoon, I broke all three.

They say you should never flirt with fire…

Cora Kenborn is a USA Today Bestselling and Top 50 Amazon Bestselling author of over thirty multi-genre novels, including the Carrera Cartel Trilogy.

While best known for her dark mafia romances, Cora’s work ranges from angsty contemporary romance to edgy suspense to laugh-out-loud rom-coms. She loves exploring themes of love, redemption, and the complexity of human relationships while infusing sharp banter and a shocking blindside into every story she writes. Give her a brooding antihero who falls hard for a feisty heroine who isn’t afraid to stand beside him, and you’ve won her heart.

Although she’s a native North Carolinian, Cora claims the domestic Southern Belle gene skipped a generation, so she spends all her free time convincing her family that microwaved mac and cheese counts as fine dining.
