Damian Carrigan is a playboy. A big talker with a quick temper and a quicker trigger finger. But as proud as his father is of him, Damian's not going to be able to handle leadership of any kind. Especially with that attitude. The Carrigan family has a reputation to uphold that reaches far beyond the rougher side of Corsica's streets, and the heir to the proverbial throne has to be able to handle himself on both sides of the proverbial tracks. "Get a little culture." My father has a funny idea of how to force me into the other side of the family business. I didn't ask to be put on the Corsica Ballet's Board of Directors, but that was all part of his plan. Now I have to smile and pretend that I don't want to murder every last one of these arrogant bastards. But this new position has brought something else into my life... Lily. The perfect way to release some tension... She also happens to be the perfect specimen to help me get a "taste" of culture. It was only supposed to be one night... I became a ballerina to fulfil my mother's dreams. Not mine. But when I came to Corsica, I didn't know what I was looking for. An escape? A chance to spread my wings? Whatever it was, all of that is gone. I belong to him, and there's no chance he'll let me get away. Not in one piece. Adagio is a dark crime romance. It contains dubious situations, mature content, and graphic violence some readers might find offensive and/or triggering.
