"Possessive. Protective. Territorial. Philip Murphy is exactly what I want in an alpha-male!" - Lynda Chance, New York Times bestselling author Dark. Powerful. Dangerous. Philip Murphy has all of Chicago under his thumb. Except her. Ella met him in a perfect storm of violence and lust. He saved her and then disappeared from her life. Now she pretends she never knew that kind of darkness. Midterms and campus parties, that’s her focus, and she applies herself with the hope they can wipe the slate clean. Then Philip turns up outside her dorm room—wounded and barely conscious. He's the head of a criminal empire, a powerful man, but he needs her now. There are traitors in his midst. She can help him, but she can't fall for him. Not again. DEEP is a 75,000 word novel of seductive and dangerous romance. It can be read as a STANDALONE and ends with a happily ever after.
