Julian Caine's life as an artist is about to be violently erased.

When his deadbeat father skips town, leaving behind a mountain of debt, Julian discovers he was foolishly offered as collateral to the city's most ruthless man.

Dante Moretti. The Don. Sculpted, terrifying, and utterly devoid of warmth.

Dante doesn't want Julian's money. He wants Julian's talent. Forced to become Dante’s exclusive 'scribe,' Julian must pay off the debt by using his artistic hands for a purpose far darker than he could ever imagine: tattooing the Don's flesh.

Trapped in Dante's gilded cage, Julian’s defiance is met with an overwhelming, possessive control that blurs the line between captor and willing captive. But when a rival faction tries to eliminate Dante, Julian is plunged into an inferno he can’t run from.
