Punishing Devotion

I'm supposed to steal a painting from an elegant villa to pay off my brother's debts. No one's supposed to be home, but as soon as I have the artwork in my hand, I promptly stumble into the arms of the owner. The tall Russian with the menacing tattoos wants to know who sent me. I can't possibly tell him that; otherwise, I'm as good as dead, and so is my brother. However, Maxim Gavrilov doesn't seem as if he has the slightest inhibitions about making me tell him the truth... This short romance is over-the-top, a bit dark-ish, and will be served with a sugary sweet happy end.
