In this city, it is more than secrets, it hides monsters.
Genevieve Sullivan has always known her father had skeletons in his closet. She just didn't expect one of them to knock on their door with a gun and a demand: pay your debts, or else.
Targeted by the Feral Blood, New York's most violent and secretive mafia. Genevieve is saved by Lysander, a man with darker secrets and sharper teeth. He offers her protection. But it comes with a cost.
Her freedom. Her future.
Thrust into a world of supernatural power and primal laws, Genevieve must navigate a life she never asked for, chained to a man who isn't entirely human but may be the only one strong enough to keep her alive.
Love was never part of the bargain. But neither was wanting to stay.

Melancholy
Elena Romano, a fierce and unyielding lawyer, becomes the only person who can keep Tristan Valenti, a notorious and untouchable mafia kingpin, out of prison. But as she's drawn deeper into his dangerous world, she discovers that the battle isn't just about saving him from the law-it's about saving him from himself. Yet in breaking every rule she's sworn to uphold, Elena risks losing more than her morals-she risks losing her heart to the man who might be beyond redemption. Melancholy - a bittersweet ache that lingers in the soul, like the taste of wine that's both bitter and intoxicating. It's the quiet storm of longing and loss, woven with moments of beauty so fleeting they hurt. Just like what Elena and Tristan want-something so consuming, it borders on destruction. Their love is jagged yet tender, a sanctuary wrapped in shadows where passion wars with despair. It's the sharp edges of love, the bruises of trust, and the haunting allure of wanting what might ruin you, yet never being able to let it go.Complete
More Than a Deal
Sienna Carter had her life planned out-a quiet job as a librarian, a cozy apartment, and a loving boyfriend, Ethan, who talked about marriage and a future filled with stability. She was content, safe, and far removed from the world of crime and violence. But everything shatters when her father-a struggling businessman-falls into massive debt with the Romano crime family. With no way to pay, the debt collectors don't take money; they take loyalty. The solution? A contract marriage between Sienna and the powerful, ruthless mafia boss, Dante Romano. Dante has built his empire on control and strategy. This marriage isn't about love-it's about power, influence, and making sure his enemies know that loyalty to him comes before all else. He expects obedience, not defiance. But Sienna is unlike anyone he's ever met. She refuses to bow to his world, to the dark underbelly of crime she's been forced into. And, most of all, she refuses to forget Ethan-the man she was supposed to spend forever with. At first, Sienna resents Dante, clinging to memories of the life she lost. But as time passes, the lines blur. She starts to see beyond the ruthless exterior-the man who reads poetry in secret, who carries the weight of an empire on his shoulders, and who, despite his power, seems just as trapped as she is. Ethan fights to get her back, but the more she learns about Dante, the harder it becomes to ignore the unexpected pull between them. Is her heart betraying her? Or was love never as simple as she once believed? In a world where love is a liability and loyalty is life or death, Sienna must choose: Hold on to the man who once promised her forever or risk everything for the one she never expected to love.
