Silena never asked for the chaos. She only wanted peace - a break from the confusion, the pressure, the fake smiles. But when Damari showed up, calm but deadly, soft-spoken but sharp-eyed... her entire world shifted.
He wasn't like the others. And that's exactly what made her fall.
But just as she starts to open up, shadows from the past begin creeping in. A car starts following her. Anonymous messages invade her phone. Someone out there is watching... waiting... and they're not playing fair.
Her best friend Ari tries to keep her grounded, but even girl talk can't quiet the unease building in her chest. And Trey - her almost, maybe, never - starts reappearing with mixed signals and dark eyes full of regret.
Then the night comes.
Hands grab her.
A car door swings open.
And it's Damari who shows up, gun drawn, secrets in his silence, and truth in his aim.
Qz
Who really has her back?
What is Damari hiding behind those gold chains and soft kisses?
And why is it that even danger feels safe in his arms?
Silena's not sure if this is love or madness.
But one thing she knows for sure - she's already in too deep.
And someone wants to drag her deeper.

TWISTED FATE (Twisted Path Book 1)
He was born to rule. She was forged in fire. But falling in love might be their undoing. I know how to survive. I've been doing it since the day my mother taught me to hide in closets and wait for the monsters to pass. Trusting people? Loving them? That's how you get broken. So when Shane Montgomery-Mr. Golden Boy with his perfect smile and world of privilege-offered to help me, I didn't believe him. Why would someone like him care about someone like me? I'm barely holding my life together-working double shifts, sleeping too little, chasing a future no one thinks I deserve. But Shane is relentless. Not just with tutoring or grades, but with me. With seeing me. Touching the parts of me I've kept buried because needing someone is dangerous. And wanting him? That's a cliff I can't afford to fall from. Still... I'm slipping. Because when he looks at me like I'm his everything-like I'm the only thing he needs, like our love is fated, written into the very fabric of the universe-I almost believe him. And if I allow myself to fall-really fall-it won't just be into his arms. It'll be straight into the wreckage of everything I've fought so hard to survive. In the first installment of the Twisted Path Series, opposites collide, secrets unravel, and two star-crossed lovers cling to each other in a world determined to tear them apart.Complete
Away From The Light. (English version)
Rose never had a normal life, but at least she had her father. Or so she thought. When he dies from an illness he kept hidden from her, Rose finds herself alone until she's forced to move in with her brother, Damon. A brother she barely knew... and who lives in a dark, dangerous world full of secrets. Her father never wanted her to be like him. He told her again and again: "Don't you become like him." But he never explained why. He avoided him, loathed him... and yet Rose could see that somewhere deep inside him there was pain. Pain for the son he had lost, perhaps not physically, but spiritually. Now, living alongside Damon, Rose begins to understand. The gang. The violence. The silence. And among them... Raven. Damon's best friend. Cold. Unapproachable. And dangerously charming. Rose knows she shouldn't get close to him. But she can't avoid him. As the lines blur and the wounds of the past bleed, Rose will be forced to choose: trust or survival? Love or freedom? And, ultimately, if the light isn't waiting for her at the end... is she ready?

For a Mobster ✔️
What they feel for each other is war. ✦ ✦ ✦ Alessandra "Sessie" Benedetti was never meant to want things, and never allowed to refuse them. As one of the consigliere's docile daughters, her entire future had been stamped since she could tie her own shoelace. Marry Tiziano, the Don's volatile son. Smile at everything. Obey every rule. Die quietly inside. So when she dares to want something for herself, just once, her father makes sure she never forgets the price of defiance. Broken and bleeding from her furnished cage, Alessandra makes a break for it, only to discover life outside the cage is just as deadly. In Chicago, her last name makes her more disposable than desirable. Enter Renzo Santoro. Her family's most dangerous enemy. The last man she should ever be within ten feet of, much less want. She saves his life on instinct, with an identity that doesn't exist. Before she can regret either of those decisions, Renzo is already orbiting her little world. And the girl raised to fear men like him? She's starting to think fear and desire might feel exactly the same. When Renzo finds out who she really is, there is no corner of this earth cold enough to contain what she unlocks in him--the fury that wants a bullet in her, and the fixation that wants her regardless. Now the only thing more dangerous than loving a man like Renzo... is what he'll do to keep her from the men who got to break her before he even knew her. And that... that's when the real war begins. ✧･ﾟ: ✧･ﾟ: ✦ ✦ ✦ :･ﾟ✧:･ﾟ: ✧･ﾟ: ✦ ✦ ✦ :･ﾟ✧:･ﾟ✧ Ranked #1 in Mafialove Ranked #1 in loveandloyalty Ranked #1 in raging Ranked #1 in mobster Ranked #1 in loveindanger Ranked #11 in badboylovComplete

"𝐒𝐭𝐫𝐢𝐩, 𝐩𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐜𝐢𝐩𝐞𝐬𝐬𝐚." Olivia groaned and crossed her arms, standing her ground. "Don't tell me what to do. You're not my dad." Amusement filled Santino's gaze as he stood up, abandoning the papers he desperately needed to read and sign. Yet, all that was forgotten as her bewitching lips protruded. "I might not be your dad but," a midnight lock of hair was pinned behind her ear, "I can be your papi." Shuddering, her body drew closer to him, betraying her mind. "You're sick." Taking the nape of her neck, Santino leaned down, his lips brushing against her ear. "Yet you still dream about my touch, don't you, principessa?" ❦ When Santino Adriano discovers that the Bratva has betrayed their neutrality by secretly working with his family's enemies, he's determined to send a brutal message that cannot be ignored. His target? The Bratva kingpin's sister, Olivia Morozov-a sheltered girl who knows little to nothing about the dark underworld her family controls, having been shielded from the darker truths of her family's empire her entire life. Fresh out of boarding school and blissfully oblivious to the power struggle boiling beneath her feet, Olivia is suddenly whisked away from everything she's ever known and thrust into a world where loyalty is weaponised and power is the ultimate prize. As secrets and long-buried lies unravel around her, she realises she's caught in a game where the unrelenting fight for power holds more value than human lives-including her own. Santino is cold, calculating, and relentless - everything Olivia should fear. Yet, she is intrigued by by his deadly nature. The line between fear and attraction is thin, and like a moth to a flame, she seeks him out, unafraid of the burn it may cause. She's never known anyone like him-an older, dangerous man who makes her question everything she thought she knew about desire. Olivia just didn't expect her captor to be so handsome.
Somewhere Between Us
"Loving you is exhausting and hard. Give me a freaking break." he said. "Then why are you still here?", she whispered with a pale and trembling voice, holding back the tears that were willing to fall down her cheeks. Laura never wanted to fall in love with someone she couldn't touch - someone who only existed behind a screen, a voice borne by time zones and poor connections. But Evan made distance seem hazardous. He made every silence burn. "You could've stopped talking to me." she said to him once. "I tried," he said. "You just wouldn't leave my fucking head." Somewhere in between their late-night phone calls and the words they never spoke, something real started to take shape - delicate, wrong, and beautiful. But love such as theirs was going to shatter. It was constructed on waiting, on jealousy, on all the things they couldn't have. And maybe that's the cruelest kind of love - the kind that feels infinite, but ends the moment you wake up. Until Aiden walked in - the man who was real, present, and everything Evan couldn't be. Aman who had actually been beside her even when she broke his heart, even when she drifted away to chase someone who made her heart ache in ways she never imagined. "He doesn't deserve you. please wake up Lau." Aiden told her. "Then why does it still feel like he's the one?" she whispered. "You're crazy." Somewhere between what she wanted and what she needed, Laura lost control. Between time zones and heartbreak, between messages and memories, something between them had shattered. Because sometimes, love doesn't ask you to choose between two people - it asks you to choose which part of yourself you're willing to destroy.
