"Bullets and ballet shoes. Russian curses and grand jetés. Welcome to Nocturne, where a prima ballerina pack heat and crime lord appreciate fine art."
----
She was Nocturne's prima ballerina. He was the city's most dangerous kingpin. Together, they would burn the Russian underworld to ash.
Verena Petrova dances for Nocturne's elite, but beneath her ethereal grace lies a deadly secret-she's been living off blood money for eleven years. When Alaric Volkov, the ruthless pakhan of the city's most feared Bratva family, discovers her father's crimes, he offers her a choice: decode his enemies' secrets or watch everything she's built crumble.
But Alaric Volkov doesn't just want her skills. He wants her-mind, body, and the dangerous fire that burns beneath her porcelain mask.
What begins as blackmail ignites into an obsession neither can control. As Moscow's shadows reach across an ocean to claim what they believe they own, vera must choose between the safety of surrender and the intoxicating danger of a man who promises to burn the world down for her.
Some debts are inherited. Some sins are chosen. And some loves are worth destroying empires for.
In Nocturne's neon-lit underworld, grace meets grit, ballet meets bullets, and a ballerina learns that the deadliest dance is the one between predator and prey-especially when you can't tell which one you are.
From blood-stained pointe shoes to diamond-encrusted bullets, this is a love obsession story written in violence and sealed with sin.

V is for Violet (COMPLETE)
-COMPLETE original version PLUS first half of new version!- "I don't know what to do," I admitted for the first time to both her and myself. "I don't know how to maintain this without fucking something up. I don't know how to keep spending time with you without setting a bad example or slipping up in front of my Family." Violet sat up and turned to face me. "I can't answer that for you," she said with a sad smile. "But I can go. I can make this easier, stay out of your way for a while." She stood on her knees between my legs, close, but not touching, and watched me with those wide, ocean eyes. I should have told her to go- listened to her suggestion and put some real distance between us. It would have been smarter, safer. But it would feel like cutting off my own hands. "I don't want that," I murmured, and reached for her waist. (excerpt from new version) --- Vengeance. Vendetta. Violence. These three words are all Violet Harcourt knows. For years, her world has been centered around killing Bill Pfeiffer, the hitman who murdered her father and sister. She's learned the criminal underground inside and out while masquerading as a quiet art student, bringing her closer and closer to her target. Now, it's time to blow her cover, and Bill Pfeiffer's brains out. Vitale Fierro lives a carefree life at the top of the Salvaggi Mafia. Business has been good, and Chicago isn't a bad place to call home when you're a professional criminal. But when a girl with purple hair murders the Family's prized hitman, he's given the responsibility of what to do with her. To kill, or not to kill seems to be the ultimate question- one he must answer while managing a promotion, taking down a rival Family, and trying not to fall in love.

THE DON'S PHOENIX
She was born into a dynasty; he was born to rule the world's deadliest empire. Together, they burned everything down to rise from the ashes. Anastacia Dinara Romanov was criminal royalty, the only daughter of the infamous Russian Don. Raised behind palace gates and bulletproof glass, she was protected by four ruthless Romanov men, her father and three fiercely loyal brothers. Her life was shadowed by violence but wrapped in loyalty, and in that world, one boy always saw her, Leonardo Vincenzo, heir to the Italian Mafia throne, a silent protector whose love never needed words, but power is rarely enough to protect a girl from the man she chooses. Victor Armando, son of the Mexican cartel king who once kidnapped her mother and left her to die, entered Anastacia's life with a lie wrapped in love. Against her family's warnings, she married him for peace. Instead, she became his possession. What began as a treaty quickly turned into a gilded cage, a slow-burning war waged behind closed doors. Victor didn't need to break her with fists; he did it with silence, shame, manipulation, and betrayal. He shattered her spirit, destroyed her body image, and isolated her from everyone who ever loved her. His mistress, Lisa, taunted her, and he let it happen. That was until Anastacia overheard a plan that would end her family. It was the moment everything changed. In secret, she stole files, recordings, passwords, everything. She risked her life for evidence, and when the weight of it all became unbearable, she broke. Leonardo never stopped watching. The necklace he gave her, his final act of love, saved her life. He found her, saved her, and then together, they began her vengeance. Taken to Italy, hidden and healed under Leonardo's protection, Anastacia trained to become a force. In the arms of the world's most feared Don, she didn't just survive; she transformed. She's not the girl who fell for a lie. She's the storm coming to burn it all down.Complete

But nothing could be further from the truth. "There's a very fine line between love and hate, princess," he traces a finger down my neck to my collarbone. My skin heats in the wake of his touch. My body leans in to him, a part of me lapping up every bit of attention he's wiling to give. "This is such a bad idea." My voice is so quiet, it can barely be heard. "The worst," he agrees with a cocky grin. And then his lips are on mine again. Ravishing and relentless, like he's trying to steal the very breath from my lung's. ****

I lift my hand, holding my pistol to his chest, hovering over his heart. He stares at me, emotions spilling out of him. Emotions I can't decipher. He leans closer, the tip of the barrel pressing into his skin, just above his heart. "Do it," he whispers, inches from my face. I hold his gaze, while his hands snake under my shirt, grazing my skin. "I dare you," he lowers his voice, so gently, "Shoot me." My finger curls around the trigger, an inch from pulling it. I glare into his eyes, "You're a fucking monster," I whisper. He nods, "I know." "You kill without remorse," I spit. "I know." "I hate you," My finger screams at me to pull the trigger. "I know." "I'm disgusted by you." "I know," he inhales, letting his forehead rest against mine. His gaze falls to my lips, "If you want me dead, then kill me, pull the trigger." - It's no longer a question. My morals are gone, leaving nothing but a monstrous killing machine. Any hope for some sort of sympathy, some regard for life is nonexistent. I want death.

Blood & Vows
In the shadow-filled world of Moscow's criminal elite, two warring families have maintained a fragile, blood-soaked equilibrium-until a chance encounter threatens to destroy everything. Viktor Mikhailov rules the city's underworld with cold precision. Feared by enemies and allies alike, he takes what he wants and eliminates anything in his path. His empire is built on calculated ruthlessness, and he's never encountered a weakness he couldn't crush. Alina Sokolov has been sheltered from her father's dangerous world, a prized possession kept untainted by the brutality of the bratva. Intelligent and quietly rebellious, she's built her own sanctuary in the world of art and beauty, far from the violence that funds her privileged life. When their paths collide at an elite Moscow gala, the chemistry between them is immediate and devastating. But Viktor isn't just any dangerous man-he's her father's sworn enemy, the man who's promised to destroy the Sokolov family. And Alina represents everything Viktor has taught himself to resist: innocence, vulnerability, temptation. What begins as a calculated seduction quickly evolves into an obsession neither can control. As Viktor draws Alina deeper into his world of luxury and violence, she must decide if she's willing to sacrifice everything for a man who brings destruction with one hand and passion with the other. In a city where trust is a weakness and love is a liability, Viktor and Alina's forbidden affair threatens not just their hearts, but the empires their families have built on blood and betrayal. ------------Complete
