Book 1, First Generation
Gianna Kingsley only came back to the rundown southside neighborhood for a funeral. The man who'd raised her had passed, and she didn't hesitate to leave the office after hearing that news.

When she arrived, however, she was forced to conspire with old ghosts to keep Kingsley Cove and her relatives safe from a ruthless drug lord; King.

When she meets him face to face, everything changes.

Does Gianna have the courage to take down King and save her elderly relatives? Can she resist the feelings she develops for him?

"You don't want no parts of this," he growled, staring down at me while still standing on the porch.

"Kamari is my friend-"

He was quick on the draw again, aiming his gun straight at my head. My relatives gasped, and even I thought he was going to end me then and there.

Okay, maybe I had mouthed off a little too much.

Alright, I definitely had.

Kinda meant to be cliche and corny "I never said that this life was going to be all sunshine and rainbows, baby." "I never expected that, baby" I mock his words. "Plus I never asked to be dragged into this shit." "Well, glad that you decided to stay." He smirks knowing I didn't have a choice. "Oh fuck off." I roll my eyes crouching beside him. His face hovers over mine and I forget where we are for a moment. I look down at his lips as his breath fans my face. More gunshots rang out and by now I was used to it. He looks from my eyes to my lips grabbing my hand and pulling me with him. "Let's go." He says and I hold onto him for dear life. Literally.

So, I gave them five months. The third months can't be paid. They don't even one third of the annual payment. I believe you will a talk about my offer to them very soon." He said as he was walking towards me. "W-Wh-Why?" I asked as he approached me as I looked up at him. He was tall but, I was not very short either. He must be 6 feet but I was 5 feet and 7 inches.

Dakari Adisa is a well respected and connected man who built his empire with his own two hands, drugs being its strong foundation.

Unable to set herself free, Dakari gives her a hand per her mother's request, but this hand comes with the proposal of marriage, something Kaya didn't think she would involve herself in, though with her life on the line she has no choice but to accept.

What happens when he finds himself consumed by one thing, or rather one person, Alesha Moore. His plans are to get her, keep her and never let her find out about his title as a kingpin in the Italian mafia. *** "Alesha, where do you think you're going?" he asked in a deep and unsettling tone. "I just saw you commit mass murder Christian. I can't be a part of this world, your world. I'm not built for this life, if this is who you are then.." I let out a humorless chuckle. "I couldn't stomach today let alone the rest of my life. I need to leave, and you need to let me." My voice was so low, even breaking toward the end. Each word provoked tears to spill from my eyes and even more came rushing when I could see how what I said must've felt like daggers to his chest. "You can either stay and talk to me or calm down outside and we'll talk when you're ready, but you are NOT leaving me." His once sexy, endearing voice turned cold and sent frightening shivers throughout my body and I don't know who was staring back at me, but I could no longer see my Christian, not the man I love. *** This book contains mature language AND images, if you find that unsettling, I promise this is not the book for you 😬
