SPY X MAFIA
In the city's underbelly, loyalty is a luxury and love is a deadly sin. Alessia "Lexi" Thompson, a skilled and ruthless spy, is forced to navigate this treacherous world when she's recruited by the infamous De Santis mafia family.
Lexi's mission is to infiltrate a rival organization and gather intel on their plans to take down the De Santis empire. But when she meets the rival family's enigmatic and seductive leader, Julian Blackwood, Lexi finds herself torn between her loyalty to the De Santis family and her growing obsession with Julian.
As Lexi becomes deeper embroiled in the world of organized crime, she must confront her own dark past and the demons that haunt her. Julian, too, has secrets of his own, and Lexi soon discovers that his true intentions are far more sinister than she ever could have imagined.
Will Lexi be able to complete her mission and escape the mafia's deadly grasp, or will she succumb to the shadows that have haunted her for so long? And what will happen when she's forced to choose between her loyalty to the De Santis family and her love for the enemy?

Run with me, Victor
2003 - the year power still hid behind silk and champagne. The Millers and the Castros have long moved in quiet alliance: two families bound by old debts, silent promises, and a mutual understanding that some things are better left unspoken. They are not enemies, not friends - just two shadows that protect each other when the world turns violent. Alena Miller was raised to play her part - graceful, obedient, untouched by the blood beneath her family's fortune. But perfection is a fragile disguise, and the night she meets Victor Castro, it starts to crack. Victor lives in the dark she was born from. A hitman molded by loyalty, sharpened by loss, and chained to a name that will never let him go. He isn't supposed to look at her the way he does, and she isn't supposed to want him - but wanting has never been the problem. It's surviving it that becomes the test. What begins as fascination turns into something dangerous - not forbidden, but consuming. Their connection is quiet, magnetic, and impossible to name. Yet as their world starts to crumble, Alena begins to see what he refuses to: that darkness doesn't keep you safe. It buries you. And when the time comes to choose - to run or to stay - the question isn't whether Victor will follow her. It's whether he can. Run With Me, Victor is a dark, intoxicating romance about legacy, power, and the pull of two souls bound by the same bloodstained world - one desperate to escape it, the other made to survive it.
