She the heiress to an empire and his darkest temptation.
He's a ruthless attorney and her darkest addiction.

Stella:
I've been wrapped in the dark world of corruption all my life, becoming a picture-perfect daughter. The reins to my life were in everyone's hands except my own. It was time for that to change. 

Starting with a stolen two million dollars. 
Robbing my family was my escape from an arranged marriage and I took my chances. But I never expected my father to hire one of New York's most dangerous men to find the culprit.

Rhys Romanov, the paragon of criminally intelligent. The bane of my existence. 
Rhys was a man with few morals and far too much power. A deadly lawyer and CEO with a devilishly handsome face to deceive this world.

From the moment we met, we succumbed to animosity. 
Rhys had more power and authority than anyone else and with limited options, I struck a deal with the devil. 

Everybody had a blind spot. Rhys was mine. Making him my darkest addiction wasn't part of the plan... because it could ruin me.

...

Rhys:
Power, wealth, and control were the things I chased and thrived on. With only enemies in this world, I held my cards close to my chest and stayed elusive; I kept my secrets and used everybody else's against them.

Running a tech company in the name of law, I ruled the world of corruption. 
But to lead this life, I lived by certain rules. Rules that one person dared to threaten.

Stella Almonte, the epitome of elegance and grace. She had the power to draw gazes to herself. Whispers of seduction dripped from her movements that only I seemed to notice. 

Stella was always charming but she was far more dangerous than a weapon. Stella was poison disguised in jewels and sparkling eyes. 
With a stolen two million dollars in her pocket, she was the culprit I never knew I was chasing. Until we struck a deal.

Everybody had a weakness and Stella was mine. She was my darkest temptation... and she could ruin me.

"The Hacker and the Mob Boss" ❦ Reyna Fields seems to be an ordinary girl with her thick-framed glasses, baggy clothes, hair always up in a ponytail, and her head tucked away behind a computer screen. However, no one knows she's armed with a genius IQ and a heart of gold. She hacks her way into virtual systems on a search for her mother. Unfortunately for her, she has hacked into the wrong database. She hacked into the database of the notorious mob boss, Santino "Saint" Venturi. Saint is the opposite of his name. He's known for his ruthlessness. As a mob boss to a mafia, he learned to eat or be eaten. When Reyna stumbles upon his database, a plan dispersed into his mind. He's going to take her. ❦ "I don't share, angel." "He's a friend," she found herself saying. Dante was too busy staring at her to notice the fiery glare in Saint's eyes. She was mentally praying that Dante would just look away. His fingers trailed up her leg before his hand latched onto her sex. He held her there while a small gasp left her lips. "I will fuck you on this table if he doesn't stop looking at what belongs to me." ❦ HIGHEST RANKING: #5 romance - 6/26/22 Dark Romance Cover by @-simplyhan
