Los Angeles, also known as The City of the Angels.
It's a fitting name for Los Ángeles del Armagedón, a cartel based in LA that runs the entire continent of South America. They're notorious, ruthless, and absolutely elusive.
Well, apart from 26 year old Roman Ernesto Alvarez.
Recently released from a two year stint in prison, he returns to the free world as the adopted heir to the most powerful cartel in South America. He's struggling to be back on the outside... until he meets her.
Isadora Visente.
She's a 23 year old personal trainer struggling with her parents' pressure to settle down and marry. Unknowingly, their slow-building but intensifying connection becomes Roman's unexpected anchor after his release.
Her life working as a trainer in her gym is pretty mundane and repetitive, until she meets Roman, of course.
Then it all gets a lot more interesting.

"You sneaky little shit." Roman's eyes snapped over to me, or more accurately, towards my legs.
There I stood in the middle of his room glaring at him, and he sat there with his beautiful eyes roaming over my exposed legs. He eventually dragged his gaze towards my upper half, but only for a second before it was back on my legs.
"Damn." His voice was low and husky and just...perfect. Even if I was mad at him I couldn't deny that fact.
"My eyes are up here, Roman."
"Yeah, but your legs are down there."
