Filled with passion, tension, and unspoken desires, this dark romance explores the fine line between love and hate, family loyalty and freedom, and the unbreakable bond of two people forced to fight their demons together.

***

Ambrosia Joy Lockwood and Liam Tyler Stanfield were inseparable as children, bonded by their mothers' deep friendship and their own innocent promises. But when tragedy struck on a trip to Switzerland, taking their mothers' lives, everything shattered. Liam abandoned her when she needed him most, and the bond between them turned to bitterness.

Now, at 25 and 28, they're trapped in a marriage neither wanted, orchestrated by the mafia ties that rule Ambra's life and the calculated ambitions of Liam's father. Ambra is fiery, stubborn, and haunted by the weight of her father's expectations, while Liam is a brooding enigma, his charm laced with darkness, his loyalty unwavering but selective.

As they navigate their new life together, old wounds resurface, forcing them to confront the shared pain and resentment that has defined their relationship. Ambra's father, a ruthless mafia boss, sees her as a weapon, trained to kill but hidden behind a façade of elegance. Liam's father, while cold, is kinder-until their worlds collide in a way that tests Ambra's loyalty and Liam's capacity for forgiveness.

Amid the chaos of bloodlines and betrayal, Ambra and Liam are drawn to each other in ways neither can ignore. But with secrets, lies, and dangerous family expectations threatening to tear them apart, they must decide if love can bloom from the ashes of hate-or if their marriage is destined to end in ruin.

"I don't know what I did to make you hate me, I haven't done anything to warrant how you ignore me! Please, just tell me!" "I'm in love with you, damn it!" He roars. "I love you so much Aphrodite, and you scare me because you are so strong and I don't want to be the one to break you!" * Aphrodite Muerte is hiding something and so is her long term crush Thanatos Amaro. Both are helplessly in love with one another and both have very different approaches on how to hide it. Love makes you do crazy things and with Aphrodite and Thanatos, it's no different. Pretending to hate Aphrodite, Thanatos manages to hide his true feelings which takes a toll on both of them. Thanatos has no idea what he's doing. Past trauma rules over Aphrodite at night causing nightmares and panic during the day. Aphrodite has no idea how to live life outside of pain. Abuse has a way of shaping people, and she's barely mended from being so broken. Both have friends that force them closer but their love might just be the reason why they end up staying together. Afterall, someone can only stay away from the person they're in love with for so long. One argument and a couple of confessions later leaves them on a confusing path that has the opportunity to be beautiful or disastrous. Love is magical but it is also savage. For Aphrodite and Thanatos, they are each other's downfalls and each others saviors. How long they last is up to them. How much they go through to get together is up to fate. In the end, will they make it or will their love end in splinters and heartache? * WARNING: Mature Content (of all sorts).

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.
