They're the biggest gang in England. She's a shadow of a girl who finds solace in the infamous family. They save her and she saves them.

Zara Caddel moves every year due her father's busy schedule as CEO of Caddel Enterprises. She begins her first day at Providence Academy, reuniting with old childhood friends and quickly becoming the center of attention. Zara starts to understand the social system there and learns about the Golden Boys. The four boys that run the school: Kenji Hirayama, Enzo D'Angelo, Damien Williams, and Andrei Lykaios. Zara has known these boys her entire life, but how well does she know them? Old secrets are revealed, lovers quarrel, and lots of witty fights. Zara doesn't know what she's about to get herself into. Not even the Golden Boys understand what's about to happen. ♛ "Was it really necessary to beat him up?" Andrei scoffed. "Do you even know his name?" She didn't, but Zara ignored his question. "You're avoiding my question." "Get dressed, Caddel," he repeated. "Answer my question, Lykaois," she said. To her surprise, though she forced herself not to show it, Andrei leaned over on both hands and was now resting on the bed with his faces centimeters apart from hers. He too had been drinking, more than usual, she could smell it in his breath. Zara couldn't help but hold her own breath as she made her eyes meet his. She wouldn't shrink away. "What do you want me to say, Caddel?" he murmured. It was a low whisper, almost a growl. "Would you like me to say that it's because I care about you?" Now the boy allowed his eyes to travel elsewhere. Zara felt as if her body was being read like a book as Andrei studied her. "Like what you see, Lykaois?" Zara dared to ask. "The sheet's blocking my view." Zara hummed. "Too bad." Andrei met her eyes once again and leaned over, so close that his lips were near her ear as he spoke, "It's too bad that we made an agreement not to fuck. I would make you scream, Caddel." She felt the heat rush to her face and her body react to his words. Fuck. "Get the fuck out, Lykaois, and I'll get dressed." Andrei was grinning as he turned away.

The Kingston's were always more than a family. They were a dynasty-ruling New York from the shadows, with power flowing through their veins for generations. Nothing happened in their city without their knowledge or control. It was a legacy of power, loyalty, and secrets, passed down without question. Now, Reese Kingston, the only child of the infamous Vaughn Kingston, is drowning under the crushing weight of the city's expectations. She was born to inherit it all-but can she live up to the impossible standards that shaped the Kingston empire? When long-lost relatives resurface, bringing promises of unity, Reese sees her chance to prove she's not just an heir, but the rightful successor to the Kingston throne. But beneath the surface of this reunion lies a web of buried secrets and bitter betrayals. The Kingston legacy is not what it seems-and Reese is about to discover that power, once fractured, is far more dangerous than she ever imagined. Now, she must decide: will she restore the family's iron grip on New York, or will its hidden past destroy everything she's ever known?

When the dark reality of her family's past starts to shatter through the intricate web of lies she's been living in, Aspen is forced to accept a devastating truth. In the name of love, monsters can arise from the hearts of men. • • • This is the sequel to Missing Pieces. It cannot be read as a stand-alone. Contains sensitive material (no cliches).
