The Viper's Kiss - Book Two
30 parts Complete Zariah Blackwood spent years escaping the family empire, building a prestigious legal career in Washington, D.C., far from her father's criminal world. But when Malcolm Blackwood summons her home, she has no choice but to return to Atlanta-a city she swore she'd never be trapped in again.
She isn't the same girl who left. She's sharper, smarter, and refuses to be a pawn. But her father has other plans. The Blackwood empire is under threat, and Zariah is the only one who can protect their interests.
There's just one problem-Cassian Wolfe.
A ruthless cartel lawyer with a reputation as lethal as his name, Cassian is assigned to work with Zariah to secure an alliance that could tip the balance of power in Atlanta. He's cold, calculating, and impossible to read. He's also the only man who's ever truly challenged her.
The longer they work together, the more dangerous the game becomes. Zariah knows Cassian is hiding something. He knows exactly who she is-but how much does he know about her past? And when an old flame reappears, backed by her father's influence, Zariah finds herself trapped between duty, deception, and a man who threatens to unravel everything she's built.
Her father expects her to fall in line. The cartel expects her to bend.
But Zariah Blackwood bows to no one.
