London's a beast of a town. 

Millions of people cross paths every day under Big Ben, the Gherkin and the London Eye. The city is big, it's booming, it's alive. A place full of opportunities. Behind the postcard picture hides a darker side filled with skulduggery, prostitution, gang warfare and organized crime. Underground London is a familiar place for Jack. Half-time private investigator and full-time hitman, he and his drug dealer lifelong friend Fence have been swimming in these troubled waters since they were free from the orphanage they grew up in. Gifted, they both made a name for themselves on the black market and drove their businesses with confidence. 

Until Jack accepted the one assassination contract that would change their lives forever.

From dirty South London's taverns and Soho sex clubs to white Victorian buildings and the City's glass towers, they will go from lies and deceptions to unravel conspiracies triggering uncanny events, discovering who they truly are and revealing ancient secrets.

A centuries-old dark plot started by supernatural beings that will ultimately result in the dawn of the Forlorn. 

London's a beast of a town, Hell yeah!

UPDATES EVERY WEEK! Vivienne Lee is pretty sure her next-door neighbor is a serial killer. What else could explain his creepily minimalistic apartment décor, inhumanly antisocial behavior, and that frighteningly emotionless demeanor? Oh, and don't forget the random bloody body parts that have a habit of showing up. It's too bad she's not scared of him. Or his unveiled threats on her life. But an emotionally scarred gangster on the run - riding the brink of insanity and followed by a whole host of trouble - is a lot more than she could've bargained for. Massimo Romano is beyond redemption. Capo of the increasingly powerful Romano crime family, the sociopathic Prince of Chicago, hell wrapped in a designer suit. He exemplifies perfect control and restraint... Until now. His job has always come easily to him for the very same reason that his name is feared widely: he's incapable of emotion. But something horrifying and sinister is beginning to happen to him. And it turns out that pesky slipping sanity of his is the least of his concerns. Because his new neighbor is a ray-of-sunshine wildcard dipped in beauty like he's never seen, and she won't leave him alone. Worse, he can't decide if he should kill or protect her. Massimo doesn't count on Vivienne being the first person to look at him like he's human. Or demons from his past coming back to haunt him. Much less a new threat looming on the horizon. Or love. Especially not that. ♛ Deviant Prince is a slow burn, enemies to lovers, dark mafia romance with mature content and dark themes. Read at your own discretion. [ Book 2 in the Romano Brotherhood Series ]
