✨️Coming soon... in a few months!!!✨️ A story about quiet loneliness, unexpected family, chaotic friendships, and a girl who learned how to live without asking for more. But sometimes, life brings back the people you stopped expecting. And sometimes, strangers share your blood. Alizay Raima Alamgir is seventeen, and her world has always been small, quiet, and carefully held together. She lives with her paternal grandparents in a house filled with warm meals, protective prayers, and gentle love. They spent years trying to fill the emptiness left behind by others, yet some spaces in her life remained untouched. She has seen her parents her whole life, but never truly known them. Her memories are made of glowing screens, paused smiles, and photographs that looked more like performances than family. Her mother chose a life far away, while her father stayed distant, unable to build a bond with the daughter who reminded him too much of a past he could never forget. And then there are her half brothers. Older, unfamiliar, living lives that never included her. To them, she is simply their father's daughter. Nothing more. So Alizay grew up in a smaller world by choice. Relatives stayed distant. Cousins became strangers. Her life settled quietly into a safe circle made of her grandparents, her best friends Zeeniya and Sana, and herself. That was enough. Until the house begins to fill again. One by one, relatives arrive with laughter, noise, and unfamiliar familiarity. And then the people she has only ever known from a distance finally step into her reality. Her father. Her brothers. Not through a screen, but standing right in front of her. And for the first time, Alizay finds herself caught between being a stranger and belonging to a family she never truly had.

Four years ago, Natalia Moretti disappeared. No goodbye. No explanation. Just silence. Once the youngest princess of the Italian mafia, Natalia was raised to obey-to smile, to submit, to accept a future chosen for her. Instead, she chose herself. Now she's back in New York. Her parents are gone. Her brothers rule the Moretti empire. And the boy she once loved-the one who thought she betrayed him-has become a man shaped by power, pride, and unfinished heartbreak. Natalia returns different. Stronger. Untouchable in ways no one expects. She's built a life of her own, far from the shadows she was born into-and she carries a secret that could change everything. As old feelings resurface and fate pulls her back into the orbit of the man she never forgot, Natalia must decide how much of her heart she's willing to risk again. Because love in their world is never simple. And some secrets aren't just dangerous- They're legacy-changing. Heir of Silence is a slow-burn mafia romance about first love, second chances, and the quiet strength it takes to protect what matters most-when the whole world is watching.

(BOOK 1 Of the QUEENS OF CHAOS SERIES) Isa Valen doesn't believe in restraint. Two weeks ago, she did champagne, a sinfully accented stranger, and a night so consuming she ran before sunrise. She doesn't remember his face. She doesn't remember his name. But her body remembers the way he made it burn. When her sister runs to New York, Isa follows without hesitation. New city. New job. New distractions. Then she meets her boss. Erik Orlov. Billionaire. Bratva Don. A devastatingly gorgeous tattooed man built from control and violence wrapped in tailored suits. The first time he looks at her, something tightens in her chest. The first time he steps close, her pulse betrays her. She doesn't recognize him. He recognizes the curve of her mouth. The sound she made when he touched her. The way she ran. The night she can't remember is the one he hasn't stopped replaying. Now she works beneath him - in his office, in his space, in his world. Every glance lasts too long. Every accidental touch feels deliberate. Every breath between them feels charged. And Erik Orlov does not chase. He claims. Enemies circle his empire. Loyalty fractures. Power shifts. But none of it unsettles him like the woman sitting across his desk, pretending she doesn't feel it too. Until two pink lines appear. Because the only thing more dangerous than their chemistry... Is the secret growing between them. And this time, he won't let her run.
