They say the past always comes back to haunt you.
For Alizeh Jaffers, it comes back wearing the face of the man she buried.

Eight years ago, Alizeh Jaffers, the Deadly Beauty stood beside Adam La Barbara, the ruthless and magnetic Mafia king of New York. Together, they carried an empire towards its success-until the Montero Family tore it apart in one brutal night of blood and betrayal. Adam, his brother, and Alizeh's sworn sister were all killed, leaving behind one sole survivor: Elena.

Fueled by revenge, Alizeh wiped out the Montero leader herself and took the La Barbara throne. She swore never to love again.

Now, Eight years later, Elena lives a normal life-just a smart, sarcastic 13-year-old with no idea her "adoptive mom" runs one of the most feared Mafia families in the world.

Everything changes when whispers spread about a new Montero boss-
Jonathan De Montero.
And when Alizeh sees him... her heart stops.
Because Jonathan looks exactly like Adam.

Same voice. Same eyes. Same danger.
But this man isn't her Adam-or is he?

Caught between the ghost of the man she loved and the threat of the enemy she destroyed, Alizeh must decide what's real and what's revenge.
And as the war between the Monteros and the La Barbaras ignites again, little does she know-
Elena's bloodline is the key to it all.

DISCLAIMER: This book contains explicit content and mature themes intended for readers aged 18 and over. It is not a traditional romance, but rather a deeply complex and dark exploration of a toxic relationship. The characters' dynamics involve intense emotional manipulation, power struggles, and actions that may be triggering to some readers. Please be advised that this story delves into themes that are explicit, emotionally charged, and may not be suitable for all audiences. Proceed with caution. "Tell me again how you don't want me," he whispers, dragging his lips down her neck. "Say it under oath, and I might even believe you." Jasmine Taylor doesn't lose. Not in the courtroom, not in life. At just twenty-six, she's built an ironclad reputation: fierce, brilliant, and unshakably professional. But when she's assigned the biggest case of her career-defending Dimitri Alekseev, a dangerously alluring Russian immigrant accused of murder-her world begins to crack. Dimitri isn't just a suspect. He's a problem. Tall, tattooed, and terrifyingly unreadable, with ties to a powerful family the law doesn't dare touch. The evidence against him is overwhelming. The press wants him buried. And deep down, Jasmine suspects the whispers are true. But the more time she spends with him, the harder it becomes to separate fact from instinct. Because beneath his cold exterior is something intoxicating. Calculated charm. Raw heat. And secrets whispered in the dark. As the trial barrels forward, Jasmine finds herself pulled into his world-one filled with shadows, blood ties, and undeniable temptation. The closer she gets to the truth, the more she risks not just her career, but her safety... and her soul. What happens when the woman who always plays by the rules falls for the man who was born to break them?

--- 𝐂𝐑𝐈𝐌𝐒𝐎𝐍 𝐕𝐄𝐋𝐕𝐄𝐓 𝐋𝐈𝐄𝐒📚 "𝐀 𝐥𝐨𝐯𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐤𝐢𝐥𝐥𝐬, 𝐀 𝐤𝐢𝐬𝐬 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐛𝐮𝐫𝐧𝐬" Alizah Malhotra × Ruhaan Rathore I shouldn't be feeling anything for him anymore. Yet I still think about him more than I should. Was our love really so weak that a mere accident and a few misunderstandings were enough to shatter it? He said he trusted me. I trusted him too. But when everything fell apart, he didn't choose me. Maybe he never meant to hurt me. Maybe he did. All I know is that I was the one left behind- to suffer, to survive, and to become someone neither of us would recognize. It doesn't matter now. I have nothing to lose. Nothing left to gain. Today, I am the top criminal lawyer of New York- and one of the most feared assassins operating between India and New York. And the man I am ordered to execute- is the same man I once loved. Sometimes I still wonder- if our families hadn't been sworn enemies, if fate hadn't been so cruel, could we have lived a quiet life together? In our own little world. With our little cookie, who never even got the chance to be born. --- In love and war, only one can survive- but some hearts refuse to die. --- Dive in to discover whether she finishes what she started, or walks away with nothing but the ashes of the man she loved- or maybe still does. ---

"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.

HIS TO RUIN

35 części W trakcie Dla dorosłych

"I should let you go," he growled against her throat. "But I'd rather watch you beg while I ruin every inch of you instead." ... Davina James thought she'd escaped the worst of it. After years trapped in an abusive relationship with a rising New York crime lord, she finally breaks free-disappearing into the shadows of Las Vegas with nothing but a duffel bag of cash and a promise her brother made years ago: If you ever decide to leave him, I'll be here. Desperate to survive without exposing her past, Davina takes a job as a bartender at La Rosa Nera-the most exclusive strip club on the Strip. What she doesn't know is that the club is owned by Lucian Accardi, a man far more dangerous than the one she fled. Lucian rules the Las Vegas underworld with silence and blood. He watches everything. Misses nothing. And the moment Davina walks through his doors, he wants her. Soft-spoken. Bruised. Hiding something. Lucian sees it all. And worse-he decides she's his. But claiming her comes with a price. Davina's brother is the detective hunting Lucian's empire from the inside. Her past is a powder keg waiting to ignite. And Lucian? He doesn't do love. He does possession. Twisted loyalty. Forbidden attraction. Power. Control. In this world, survival means surrender. And surrendering to a man like Lucian Accardi might just ruin her... or set her free. Please Read Content Warning Before Adding Book
