Love was never part of the plan... especially not with the enemy."
At just twenty years old, Mae Romano rules New York's most feared mafia empire with an iron fist. Cold, calculating, and untouchable, she's built a reputation that makes grown men lower their eyes when she enters a room. In Mae's world, trust is a weakness, mercy is a luxury, and love is nothing more than a distraction.
Christiana Brooks couldn't be more different. Loud, sarcastic, fearless, and always one joke away from getting herself into trouble, she's just trying to survive another day. She never expected her path to cross with the infamous Mafia Queen let alone catch her attention.
One chance encounter changes everything.
When Christiana accidentally becomes entangled in the dangerous world of organized crime, she's given two choices:
Run...
Or stay close to the one woman everyone fears.
As rival families declare war, betrayals come from every direction, and secrets threaten to destroy everything they've built, Mae and Christiana find themselves fighting battles they never saw coming both on the streets and within their own hearts.
The one rule Mae swore she'd never break...
Was falling in love.
But some rules were made to be broken.
Will they survive the war surrounding them?
Or will loving each other become the deadliest mistake of all?
A slow-burn WLW mafia romance filled with action, danger, found family, jealousy, humor, betrayal, and a love that refuses to die even when the whole world wants it to.
