But when he discovers the wealthy Rivers family have been hiding him his whole life, he decides to lie his way into their world through Dakota Rivers, the youngest son. The plan was supposed to be simple: get close, get money, and never get attached. But Hayden discovers more than he bargained for. What was supposed to be a con starts feeling dangerously real, and the deeper Hayden gets, the harder it is to keep his lies from cracking. Because losing control was never part of the plan. Neither was wanting to stay with them. This book is about family and belonging.

They left the mob behind. Normal life didn't get the memo. Luka wants a quiet senior year, Rico wants rules, and Dante wants chaos with plausible deniability. The only thing they all agree on? Staying low profile is harder when your instincts were built for war and your little brother keeps lighting the fuse. This is a reader-directed story, you get to help shape it, so jump in with me on the fun. This is a sequel to The Price For Blood. MxF relationships and family focused

For years, Luka believed his brothers were the reason his life always felt one wrong move away from blowing up. They were the danger. The threat. The shadow hanging over him. Then the secrets start spilling out, and the story flips. His brothers aren't the disaster he's been bracing for. They're the ones trying to keep it from swallowing him whole. The same men he's spent years fearing are suddenly the ones stepping in front of the worst of it, making choices that could cost them their lives just to keep him standing. It messes with Luka's head, because monsters aren't supposed to protect you. Trust doesn't come easy, but neither does survival. Somewhere between the lies, the secrets, and the close calls, Luka stops just trusting them. He starts counting on them. And in the process, he learns something that scares him almost as much as the truth about his family: He's more capable than he ever let himself believe.
