standalone ~ mafia siblings series "You can't make me stay here! I will get an emancipation." I yell. Flashbacks of the gun in my hand, the almost-dead boy. I shudder. A sick feeling settles in my heart. "I forbid you from going anywhere else. It's safe here, with us," Alexander answers. He is practically fuming. "Clearly, it's not!" I stand from the leather chair, backing away to the mahogany door. Pure, hot rage bubbles inside of me. Never. I will never become one of them. He begins to rush to me, but I turn on my heel and sprint out, down the hallway, through the house, and to the brick fence surrounding the mansion. I go up to the black metal gate, slip through the rails, and run out onto the forest-surrounded street. *** Evelyn Rhodes was kidnapped at the age of seven by her uncle after seeing her brothers kill a woman.

I was seventeen when I learned the family I grew up with wasn't mine. I was standing in a school computer lab, fixing a line of code, when my mother's voice broke over the phone and rewrote my entire life. A hospital mistake. A mass-casualty night. Two babies switched at birth. The wealthy Blake family-the tech empire everyone knows-has a daughter who isn't biologically theirs. And I'm the one who is. When I'm brought to the Blake estate, I expect answers. Maybe distance. Maybe awkwardness. What I don't expect is the girl they raised refusing to let go-and the family choosing her anyway. Vivienne Blake is everything I'm not: polished, fragile, adored. And she's terrified of losing the life she was given. So she does what anyone desperate would do. She turns them against me. As secrets surface, loyalties fracture, and blood proves less powerful than comfort, I'm forced to ask myself one question: What do you do when the family that belongs to you... doesn't want you?

"I can protect her!" I snarl. "And if you can't? Are you willing to risk this little girl's life because you refuse to make an honest living?" After unfortunate events force thirteen-year-old Sterling Jensen on Roland's path, a gang leader who doesn't have the patience or time for children, they must learn to live together and the undeniable truth about themselves.
