Maxine Kalliope Vega isn't your typical college student. Beneath her quiet, unassuming exterior lies a deadly secret-she's a notorious gangster, deeply embedded in a criminal world that no one dares to cross. When she's forced to attend an elite university to completely lay low from her second life, Maxine expects it to be nothing more than a temporary distraction. But then she meets Professor Liana Winter Santillan-an intelligent, stunning, and fiercely independent woman who seems to see right through her.
How will this deadly and sinful encounter play out?
Face of Deception Series
Book #1: The Devil In Disguise (Vega-Santillan Story)
Note:
The Devil in Disguise is formerly known as "The Gangster Assassin." This story will undergo a major reconstruction and will probably not have the same plot as the previous one I wrote because I started writing "The Gangster Assassin" way back in 2015, and I was so young then. I stopped writing too, because school happened, work happened, and life happened, and I wasn't able to get back to this story until recently when I opened my account and felt the need to write again.
If you are an old reader of mine, well, I want to thank you for the support and for reading my previous story called "The Gangster Assassin," I felt bad for not being able to continue it. It wasn't my best work but it was my first ever story and I didn't expect people to actually read it. Though I doubt that everyone who used to read my previous is still around, but hey, if you're still here and have this in your library. Thank you!
The changes in the entire plot will definitely shock you because of how different it will be, so if you still want to hang around, and read my work, then I highly recommend that you start reading from the beginning of this story.
If you are a first-time reader of mine, then welcome! :)
I hope you enjoy it!
