Stolen Innocence by Aria Ray

Marked for death, her little secret turned him from reaper to keeper.
As a ruthless enforcer, my orders are clear: go in, eliminate, disappear into the shadows.
But when I saw the innocence in that little girl’s fearful eyes, stirring echoes of my own past, I couldn’t follow through. She was purity amidst the monsters—I took her and vanished.
Soon, I realized why those eyes struck me—her mother is Alissa, a woman burned into my memory from a passionate night five years ago.
Ravishing. Vulnerable. Naive. Alissa was never meant for my cutthroat world, so I walked away.
Now, fate brings us back together, each with our secrets.
Can I save her daughter and punish the guilty without exposing my ties to the underworld? And is there more between us than memories of that intense night?
