fantasy fantasy-romance mafia originalstory princess romance steampunk winter

Ikafell sits on the edge of the world: a glittering halo of gold, glass and ice, glowing amidst the frozen wastelands of the South Pole. At the centre of the grandeur and snow is the Kallapekk; the home of the Royal Family, the court and Queen Leizel's most trusted wards, the Duchesses.

Vienna Ducaisia is one of them, a Duchess since she was found as an abandoned orphan. As beautiful and pure as snow that ever falls on her beloved city.

Her life is spent in the towering city skyscrapers and golden spires, amongst the glitz of stars and champagne. Her world of royal balls and airship cruises is leagues above the smoky alleyways and rust stained snow banks of the mafia that truly run Ikafell. The Smit family strangles the glimmering city from the shadows with their ever growing gangs of orphaned kids.

Ashe D'Arcy is one of them, a wretch of the streets since Lucrexia Smit found him as a howling baby left in a gutter. As downtrodden and cold as the slush that plagues his dark alleys.

When the impossible happens and the two meet Ashe vows to open Vienna's eyes to the city's harsh reality as she is determined to show him the beauty she still sees. But together they will shake the foundations of the city, for better or for worse....All Rights Reserved

Wicked Honey (18+) by hauntingthem

When Ivy Lancaster, a young and successful publisher, saves a family farm in an old rundown town, her life is flipped on its axis. Her charity puts her on the radar of the man who runs all of Sin Sity. His gang has had the city on lockdown for years, and he's at the heart of it all. And now, she's been pulled into this life too. One she never expected. The one she'd only read about in books. Alongside him and his bestfriend, she'll have to learn how to survive this new life she's been pulled into. Or go back to the mundane, calm life at her desk. And she's not sure which is worse. **** I know I shouldn't. I know I should be disgusted by the thought of his hands on me. He is a killer. He's psychotic. He's forcing me to be here. And yet, I can't make myself pull away. I can't tell him to stop. Sin's fingers dip lower, playing with the lace barely covering my skin. I throw my head back against his chest, his gun still digging into my back. My eyes catching Arrows again. He hasn't moved. But his fists clench at his sides. And I wonder what it would feel like to have him pressed against my front with Sin at my back. God, what the fuck, Ivy? Why am I letting this happen? "I know you're wet for me, baby girl." Sin murmurs into my ear. "Wet for us." 'Fuck, I'm screwed' I think as Sin's fingers slip under my panties.
