In a quiet coastal town, Serena keeps to herself-tattoos inked across her skin like armor, walls built brick by brick around a past she refuses to revisit. Her days are quiet, wrapped in paperbacks and dust motes, tucked away behind the counter of her sleepy bookshop.
Until he walks in.
Tyson is all danger and silence, a brutal storm behind calm eyes. A mafia leader in hiding, forced into a town too soft for someone who only knows violence. He doesn't belong in her world-but he keeps coming back.
She's the one thing he can't control.
He's the one thing she can't ignore.
What starts as wary glances and barbed tension slowly ignites into obsession, heat, and a terrifying kind of trust. But when blood comes knocking and secrets claw to the surface, Serena must choose: run from the fire-or burn with him.
Crimson Oaths is a slow-burn mafia romance steeped in possessive heat, bruising loyalty, and the kind of love that demands everything.

In a world ruled by blood contracts, quiet betrayals, and sins no one ever confesses aloud, secrets don't stay buried for long. She steps into a war she never meant to join. He carries the weight of violence, loyalty, and wounds he'll never admit to. But when their paths collide, desire becomes a weapon-and trust becomes a luxury neither of them can afford. Nothing in their universe is gentle. Every emotion is a risk. Every touch is a warning. Every promise comes with a price. She wasn't supposed to get close. He wasn't supposed to let her. Yet the pull between them defies reason, defies caution... and defies the fate waiting in the shadows. Fate isn't merciful. It's cruel, calculated, and patient. Someone is destined to break. Someone is destined to bleed. And when loyalty is paid in blood, the only question left is: Who will betray whom first? e.s [© Esmé. All Rights Reserved. This applies to all of my published works.

Blood and Ledgers
Ava Reyes is burnt out, underpaid and overworked and so she walks out on her job, with no regards for what the future holds. When she receives an unexpected job offer from a high paying, elusive firm she accepts, no questions asked. She never expected to fall for her boss, let alone discover he runs the city's most dangerous crime syndicate. Blood and Ledgers is an 80,000-word mafia romance that blends slow-burn seduction with lethally high stakes. Ava naively thinks she's finally caught a break. But the deeper she digs, the more she begins to realise that the numbers she's fixing hide bribes, blood money and buried bodies. And the man that's watching her every move? Vincent Fontana isn't just powerful. He's untouchable, calculated and far too interested in her. Their connection is magnetic, completely inappropriate and totally inevitable. When a betrayal that comes from inside the syndicate threatens to break apart the organisation, Ava's loyalty is tested in ways she never saw coming. What begins as survival becomes obsession; with a man that will kill to protect her and a life she never could have imagined she'd find herself living.

College? No, this was paradise. Three years filled with partying, not so secret underground drug-deals, and hot-headed men sliding into beds like snakes with no self-control. Things were different now. I wasn't that perfect, frill-wearing angel Mama thought would walk into the house ring-beared. So many things had changed, except for one. Him. He was a disease, one I couldn't get rid of no matter how hard I tried. Everytime he's near, I feel myself turn into something I've never seen before. Like there's something under my skin only he is capable of bringing out. He's manipulative, twisted, and completely wrong in every way. I hate him. Yet every night, from miles away, I find him in my dreams. Mikhail Volkov Fuck the patriarchy. Better yet, fuck everything and everyone.

This fire in my bones, I feel it burst into flames while every dark memory, thought and desire runs into my fists. So many medals, but only the people around me could see them.
