Gavin Vance survived the horrors of the Kunar Province, but he couldn't outrun the ghost of his best friend, Julian. Wracked by survivor's guilt, the former tactical Team Leader takes a job as a private bodyguard for Julian's family-assigned to protect Elena Mercer, the woman he has secretly loved from afar for years.
Elena is trapped in a gold-plated cage. Paralyzed by grief and manipulated by her father's charming corporate protege, Tristan Cross, she doesn't know who to trust. When a hostile corporate takeover threatens her family's legacy, Gavin steps into the shadows to shield her from the crossfire.
As the line between professional duty and undeniable passion blurs, Gavin and Elena are pulled into a dangerous web of embezzlement, betrayal, and high-society sabotage. To expose the predator hiding in plain sight, Gavin must battle his darkest demons-and convince Elena that love isn't a betrayal of the past, but the only way to survive the present.

MAFIA'S DANGEROUS WIFE
She was known as softness in a world that respected only steel. To the outside world, she was the kind of girl people trusted without thinking-gentle eyes, warm smiles, hands that helped before they were asked to. She believed in quiet kindness, in listening more than speaking, in healing rather than hurting. Neighbors spoke of her as too pure for this world, someone who didn't belong anywhere near danger. And yet, danger had always belonged to her. Behind the calm grace she carried so effortlessly was a mind sharper than any blade and a power no one suspected. In the shadows, under a name whispered only in fear and loyalty, she ruled a secret mafia empire-one built not on chaos, but on control. She didn't command through brutality alone; she commanded through intelligence, strategy, and an unbreakable sense of justice. She destroyed monsters so others wouldn't have to face them. Her life had always been divided into two truths: One lived in the light. The other ruled the dark. Then came the marriage. She was to be married off to a man the world already feared-a mafia king whose name carried blood, power, and legend. To everyone else, it was a dangerous alliance; to her family, a terrifying gamble. To him, she was merely a gentle bride, a beautiful weakness. But marriage doesn't just change surnames. It changes empires. As she steps into his world, her carefully balanced double life begins to crack. Secrets collide. Power shifts. And the girl everyone believed was fragile must decide whether to remain hidden in the shadows-or rise, unapologetically, and reveal that the most dangerous thing about her was never her kindness... but the fact that she had always known how to survive without losing it # 13 IN CONTROL (19/12/2025) # 5 IN FAMILYHISTORY (19/12/2025) # 3 IN FAMILYHISTORY (30/12/2025) # 41 OUT OF 55.8K BOOKS IN POWER (2/1/2026) #2 IN FAMILY HISTORY (3/1/2025) #3IN SECRETIDENTITY OUT OF 8.2k BOOKS (23/1/2025)
ARIANA: The Invisible daughter of RAJVANSH
"She was born into the most powerful family... yet she grew up without them." At just sixteen, Ariana Rajvansh had everything money could buy-but never the one thing she needed the most... her family. Years ago, one misunderstanding destroyed everything. Blamed for something she never did, Ariana was sent away to America and slowly erased from the family she once called home. While the Rajvansh empire in India grew stronger, richer, and more feared, their youngest daughter learned how to survive alone. Now, after years of guilt, regret, and unanswered questions, her family wants her back. Five overprotective brothers. A powerful father. Grandparents who can't sleep without remembering her. An uncle and aunt carrying a secret that changed her life forever. Cousins who have only heard stories about the girl who disappeared. And a cousin sister who became the family's favorite while Ariana became nothing more than a forgotten memory. But bringing her back won't be easy... Because Ariana has only one answer: "You abandoned me once. Don't come looking for me now." What no one knows is that Ariana is hiding a truth so dangerous that even her mafia brothers have no idea who she has become... or what she's been protecting all these years. When the forgotten daughter returns, old wounds will reopen, buried secrets will come to light, and the Rajvansh family will realize that asking for forgiveness is far easier than earning it. In a family built on power, loyalty, and blood... can love find its way back home?
