"This is the second book in 'Kings of Arcana' Series."
---------
There are four type of Kings in the tarot card deck and RIAN BYRNE is the King of Pentacles,
He's got the qualities of it.
He's authoritative just like the king of Pentacles card shows in the tarot deck.
He's powerful, sensible, strong, masculine and likes to have control over things. He doesn't like it when someone tries to mess up with his routine. Because that person is as good as dead.
So, what will happen if a 5 feet nothing, delusional Mafia romance writer with a hot mouth and an even hotter body tries to mess up, his whole plan. The plan he was trying to make for as long as he remembers. Will she be 6 feet under the ground like others? Or will he give up his plan because of his obsession with his favourite pretty little thing?
Just like any other fiction writer, ERICA ROBINSON believes in the mantra ... delusion is the solution. But what could be the possible solution, when a Mafia romance writer crosses paths with a Mafia King, unintentionally?
She has her own secrets ... He is a man who lives in secret.
She wants to solve the mystery of her past ... He's a man who is a walking mystery.
She crossed paths with him for the first time unintentionally but what happens next wasn't unintentional. Not from either side.
Read the story to see their chemistry unfold in front of your eyes.
***
King of PENTACLES is a slow burn romantic book and it has mystery, thriller and revenge in it. So, if you do give it a try, i recommend read atleast 3 chapters before giving up on it. And i promise if you'll stay with me till the end. You won't regret it.

Book #1 in Sinful Series RUDRANSHxAADHYA "Do you know what I do with traitors?" His voice was hard but shaky, like he was barely holding back his rage. I shook my head, fear gripping me as I tried to stay still. His lips twisted into a cruel smile, amusement mixed with malice. "I make them regret it," he whispered, his breath warm against my skin. The knife hovered near my throat. My heart raced, each beat echoing my terror. I didn't dare move or breathe as his eyes searched mine for any hint of defiance. "But since you're mine, and I can't hurt you," he continued, his voice calm despite the heat of his breath, "I'll go after the one who dared to touch what's mine. He won't see the next sunrise." Tears filled my eyes, and I shook my head. A cold chill ran through me as his tone turned deadly. "I'll make him suffer," he promised darkly. "He'll beg for mercy, but by the end, he'll wish he never even looked at you." His lips brushed mine as he whispered, sending dread coursing through me. "And when it's done, you'll know how far I'll go to protect what's mine." I looked into his eyes, the horror of what was coming sinking in. There was nothing I could do to stop him. The storm was coming, and it would leave only destruction behind. Join Rudransh and Aadhya on their rollercoaster ride, where betrayal and mistrust threaten to tear them apart at every turn. In a world where loyalty is fleeting and the line between love and hate blurs, they must navigate the dark shadows of their pasts and the dangerous forces that conspire against them.

All I Need ✔️
"You're playing with fire Safania." "Good thing I don't burn." The last words he spoke before throwing me onto my bed sounded like a threat, but felt more like a promise. "You will." *** Don't get caught. Those are the three words Safania has lived by for the past five years. As a marked woman - easily identified by intricate bronze marks on her back and unpredictable special abilities - she has spent the past five years running from anyone who might exploit those abilities...especially the royal families who tortured marked women to build their empires. Starving, exhausted, and frozen, she collapses by the bank of a river just to wake up in her worst nightmare: the chambers of a prince. Prince Cassius is his father's first choice of his three brothers to ascend to the throne. He's smart, strategic, and stoic, unlike his corrupt and depraved brothers. There's just one problem: he has no interest in any of his proposed marital matches, and the King will only pick someone as his successor who he knows will carry on the family line. But once he meets Safania, he finds himself unable to imagine ruling the kingdom without her by his side. Can he convince her to trust him? *** Warning: this story contains mature and potentially triggering themes including domestic violence and sexual assault. Reader discretion is advised.Complete
