This city is a mess.

First of all, the police are hilariously unsuccessful in arresting a highly criminal nightclub owner. The media are ensuring everyone knows, resulting in city-wide romanization of crime. Second of all, the city's star detective is currently struggling to understand why that nightclub owner- a certifiable genius with a record-breaking intelligence score- chose the criminal lifestyle over, say, being a NASA engineer. And that brilliant criminal's boyfriend is equally confused over why she consistently takes unnecessary risks. This spiderweb of crime has been spun so far that even that detective's ex-fiancé, a bumbling idiot who also has custody over his daughter, is getting involved. So is that bartender who works for that criminal, and so is that detective's boss. And while all that happens, another criminal- most definitely not a certifiable genius- is ready to rip the spiderweb apart. 

In truth, it doesn't matter what they say about you while you're still here. It matters what they say about you long after you're gone.

Victoria always hated how her father would treat the girls in the house, she never truly understood why he did the things he did but she was always to scared to question it, scared that if she would say anything her father would have an outburst of rage from the sudden question.

In the gritty underbelly of a sprawling, neon-lit metropolis, a complex web of power, crime, and intrigue weaves its way through the city's heart. This is a mafia story, a tale of organized crime that unfolds in the shadows, where loyalty is as deadly as betrayal, and power is the ultimate currency. At the center of this seedy underworld is a charismatic and enigmatic mob boss, a figure whose influence extends far beyond the boundaries of legality. This mafia don is a master of manipulation, shrouded in an aura of charm that belies a ruthless and cunning mind. His empire stretches from illicit gambling dens to the drug trade, from extortion rackets to underground fight clubs. The city itself becomes a character in the story, its alleys and backstreets concealing secrets, and its towering skyscrapers casting long shadows over the criminal enterprises that flourish within. The juxtaposition of opulence and decay is striking, as glamorous penthouses overlook squalid tenements, and the echoes of power are heard amid the sirens and gunshots. The story's protagonists are a motley crew of characters, each with their own moral compass and motivations. A disillusioned detective, haunted by the memory of a loved one lost to the mafia's clutches, is determined to bring down the boss and dismantle the syndicate. Alongside him, a conflicted lawyer finds herself torn between her duty to uphold the law and her loyalty to a childhood friend entangled in the mafia's web. As the plot unfolds, alliances are forged and broken, betrayals and vendettas fuel the narrative, and the line between right and wrong blurs into shades of gray. Family ties, whether by blood or loyalty, play a pivotal role, as characters grapple with the choices they've made and the consequences that come with it.

UPDATE!! BOOK II: BOUND TO HIM IS NOW AVAILABLE!! NEW CHAPTER POSTED EVERY THURSDAY!!! *** It was supposed to be a simple trade off with her father but only it wasn't so simple. Not when they both were attracted to each other on levels they didn't understand. *** "What were you thinking was going to happen tonight?" I question, trying hard to conceal the surge of surprise she's brought on to me. She leans in closer to my face, her voice a seductive whisper "A one night stand". What the fuck? Is she trying to play some kind of a game with me? Because it's working, she keeps surprising me and I couldn't hate her more right now. My hand reaches out to grab her face, my cool skin feels uncomfortable over her warm cheeks. She leans into my touch, green eyes fixed on mine. "As much as I'd like to do that, I have an agenda for tonight" I pull my hand back unwillingly. "What agenda?" She looks at me as if I have grown another head. "I'm going to be honest here, I'm not taking you to have sex with you. This is a kidnapping" *** WARNING! CONTAINS STRONG LANGUAGE, SEX SCENES, VIOLENCE! READ AT YOUR OWN DISCRETION.
