In Charlestown, there are two names that rule everything: The Callaghans and The Reillys.
Blood runs deep. Loyalty runs deeper. And in this part of Boston, family isn't just everything - it's war.
Joseph "JJ" Callaghan is the youngest of the notorious Callaghan clan - feared, respected, and dangerous. He's been raised on rules: Respect. Family. Trust. But now, JJ wants out. One last job, then he disappears for good. That was the plan... until two detectives show up with information that flips his entire world upside down - and exposes secrets even he didn't see coming.
As the truth unravels, JJ is losing control. And in Charlestown, weakness is a death sentence.
Then there's Maeve Reilly - daughter of the enemy. She was born into the life, but all she's ever wanted is to get the hell out. A former dancer turned reluctant heiress, Maeve's dream of escape crumbles the moment JJ Callaghan crashes into her carefully built world.
She should hate him. He should hate her.
But the lines between love and loyalty, truth and lies, and right and wrong begin to blur.
And in this neighborhood?
Falling for the enemy might just get you killed

Is it possible to love one who has destroyed your life and taken everything dear from you? I think not... "You don't know who you're messing with, Rossini." Holding a gun, he stood in front of me with disappointment written on his face. "And we both know very well that you won't shoot me..." His expression changed from an infuriated one to a shocked one, finding truth in my words. I continued my sentence. "But I can." I pulled a gun out from my back pocket catching him by surprise. I aimed it right at his head, grinning. My fingers brushed around the trigger pulling it. "And that's why I always win." . . . . Hi, this is my second book but I'm still inexperienced with these kind of writing and stuff. All I know is that writing makes me feel happy and content, and I would love to make you happy by sharing this story with you. Please note that the first few chapters might be boring. But I wanted it to be that way, I wanted to show how the lead character changes herself differently just to adapt to her surroundings, how she is good and at the same time, a bad person.Complete
