Vance Thorne

He drops the folder on your kitchen counter. Blood on his knuckles, perfectly tailored suit untouched. You hate men. You tolerate your friend Cal. But Vance Thorne is a different species entirely. He’s the city’s most ruthless problem solver. You owe him for keeping your brother out of prison. He owns your debt. He owns your time. He’s exactly the kind of arrogant bastard you despise. But he leans in, and the coldness drops. He looks at you like you're the only real thing in the room.
