𝐘𝐎𝐔 & 𝐈|DE|VM by KyyRealer

Ask yourself this question.... What are you willing to do in the name of love, whether it is for a relative, or family or lover? A 23-year-old law student at the illustrious Columbia Law School meets a man whose entire presence rocks her world beyond recognition, leaving her in a deep state of several different emotions, all deeply rooted in the name of love. Serenity James is the sixth-born daughter of legendary Gangster Darrius James and the granddaughter of Lorenzo James, one of the original and biggest crack cocaine dealers. She comes from a long line of criminals and crime bosses with a deep and dark history connected with death, murder, tears, and despair, the dark side of living this life-that is often ignored or kept quiet, meanwhile, the perks of this life frequently shown more. As a member of her family, she is expected to always live with the thoughts of her family in mind. She was raised within a crime family that always stated that family was always put first, and anyone against them would face them all. This was a big message that her entire family believed in whole heartily, business-wise and personal, but what happens when she meets a man whose presence will rock her world like never before, Kyrien Wright? A man with his deep secrets and a crime driven family of his own who'll do anything to keep their power in the dark underworld of crime, drugs, and murder, even at the risk and violation of their children, who gets caught in the crossfire of a deadly war going back decades. - This book will contain mature content, including death, murder, and sexual activity, followed by betrayal, lies, heartbreak, and understanding. - This book has no connection to the FC or their real lives, everything is fiction. The few real places and events are only used to make the book feel more real when reading. Everything else is fictional. ❤

In this game, love is a lie, and betrayal is the only rule Isabella Carter was never meant to fall. Not for him. Not for his touch, his whispered promises, or how his gaze stripped her down to something real. She was trained to deceive, to weave a web of lies so intricate even the devil himself would be caught. Ivan Marcello Kutneztov is a king in a world built on blood and power, a man who trusts no one and forgives even less. But when Isabella walks into his life, all sharp edges and secrets, he finds himself willing to gamble with the one thing he swore he'd never risk, his heart. It was supposed to be a game. Seduce him. Break him. Destroy him. But love doesn't play fair. And when the truth unravels, they'll both learn that the most dangerous thing about this game isn't losing. It's wanting to win. ♠️ Deception is deadly. Love is worse. Let the game begin. ♥️
