Knight in Shining Tuxedo

Filthy Rich Club Series #5

Dr. Lucent Lotus Amourteirre thought her life was simple.
She ran a luxurious veterinary clinic in the heart of Makati, cared for everything from spoiled shih tzus to abandoned strays, and lived peacefully in the penthouse above her family's legacy building, Le Sanctuaire.

Until one rainy night, when a wounded black panther collapsed at her glass doors.

Driven by instinct and compassion, Lucent saved the animal-unaware it belonged to Raphael Le Michaelis Guillermes, a stoic, notorious mafia boss whose moral code was as sharp as his suits: never harm the innocent.

Their worlds collided in gunfire and wit, in chaos and sarcasm.
She was a doctor of beasts; he was a master of shadows.
He dealt in power and silence; she disarmed him with sass and laughter.

But saving his panther pulled her into his world-a world of loyalty, danger, and unspoken rules, where love became both a weapon and a refuge. From Manila to Spain, from bullet wounds to whispered vows under the moonlight, Lucent and Raphael's unlikely bond grew into something neither of them saw coming.

Because sometimes, the knight doesn't come in shining armor. Sometimes, he arrives in a tuxedo-carrying a gun, a secret, and a heart that only one woman could tame.
