La Rousseau ✨

They buried her father with a legacy soaked in blood.
Now, they expect her to crumble.

Lila Rousseau has never been just a daughter.
Raised in the shadow of France's most feared mafia kingpin, she was trained not to flinch, not to fail, and never-ever-to fall in love.

To her, love wasn't an emotion. It was weakness and weaknesses are never allowed.

Now, with her father's ashes scattered over Étretat's cliffs and the crown of the Rousseau Syndicate resting on her shoulders, Lila steps into a world where men rule by fear and women vanish in silence.

But Lila is no silent girl.
She's fire. She's strategy. She's vengeance in silk.

Enter Jace Durant. Spy. Liar. A man sent by Les Ombres, the rival syndicate, to infiltrate her world and tear it apart from the inside.

He's meant to be her undoing.
But when secrets ignite and enemies draw blood, he finds himself drawn to the one woman he was never meant to touch.

In a world of smoke and daggers, power and deception, hearts aren't just tangled-
they're weaponized.

He was sent to watch her burn.
She was born to burn it all down.
