Deadly game| 18+
Amari never imagined her dream vacation in a luxurious Italian villa would turn into a nightmare. What was supposed to be two weeks of relaxation and solitude quickly spirals into a fight for survival when, on the very first night, she accidentally witnesses a brutal murder. Trapped in a villa meant to be her sanctuary, she soon realizes that she's not alone-and she's certainly not safe. Enzo, a powerful and ruthless mafia businessman, has just uncovered a traitor in his midst, someone sabotaging everything he's worked for. He's already had a day from hell, and the last thing he expects to find in his villa is a foreign reporter. But her presence isn't a coincidence. She's connected to everything he's been trying to unravel, and she's the key to getting answers. With his patience thinning and his secrets on the line, Enzo will stop at nothing to make her crack. She may be the one thing standing between him and the truth, but she's about to find out that the only thing more dangerous than a murderer lurking in the shadows... is the man who will do anything to make her reveal what she knows. In a game of cat and mouse where no one can be trusted, Amari must navigate the treacherous world she's found herself in, where every move could be her last-and where a slow-burn attraction with the man who holds her captive might be the most dangerous game of all.

Price of Blood
Nearly 10 years-that's how long Cecelia has been alone. Abandoned. Exiled from the only family she's ever known for a crime she doesn't even remember committing. Sent away to a cold, unfamiliar boarding school in London, she learned to survive on her own, her past slipping away piece by piece after a tragic accident stole her memories. Now, her family exists only in the ink-stained pages of her diary-names without faces, stories without warmth. But when a sudden summons drags her back into their world, Cecelia is forced to confront the ghosts of her past. Her family still blames her. Their eyes hold nothing but resentment. And worst of all, she has no idea what she did to deserve their hatred. Thrown into a brutal world of crime, power, and secrets, Cecelia finds herself entangled in a dangerous game-one where trust is scarce, loyalty is tested, and betrayal lurks in every shadow. As she fights to reclaim the life that was stolen from her, she must face the ultimate question: Can she ever truly go home, or was she never meant to belong in the first place?
