They rule the world, the Five Families. With enough blood-money to buy God and enough power to bury any truth, they are the untouchable kings of this gilded cage. The Wilsons, Lancasters, Sterlings, and Fairchilds. And then... there were the Vanes. I was one of them once. The golden girl. The Heir. Until they turned me into their sacrificial lamb. One year ago, they stood by and watched me bleed-my own father, my traitorous cousin, and the friends I thought would die for me. They sent me to rot in exile for a crime I didn't commit, stripping me of my name and my soul. Now, the exile is over. But the girl who left is dead. I've returned with a heart of ice, and a list of names. They think they can just plug me back into their world. They think I'll take my place at the Business Club, wear their pastels, and play the part of the quiet victim. They couldn't be more wrong. My name is Emery Vane, and I'm a different kind of storm. Leo Wilson is the worst of them. The heir to the richest throne. The boy who looks at me with a hatred so hot it feels like an obsession. He blames me for his sister's tragedy. He wants to own me, to cage me, to force me into a marriage that feels more like a prison sentence. He wants to see me crawl. He thinks he's the predator. He thinks I'm the same girl he once knew. But I'm not here to be a bride. I'm here to be a wrecking ball. He wants a marriage? I'll give him a war. He wants my hand? I'll take his empire.

Revenge. I'm familiar with it. You have to be when you're the firstborn son of a notorious mafia leader. Death and vengeance have been the very foundations of my life.

We bid our time behind bars, planned and prepared for the day we got out. Now we're free and hungry for redemption. I know what must be done. I know whose blood will be spilled. But before I go after him, I'll go after his daughter. I never said I play fair. *Book one in the Marino Brothers Duet. Rated 18+ due to explicit language, sex, and violence.*
