He is a devil.
And under his influence, She might become one too.
***********
Kabira Davis has always been sure which side of the law she fought for. She had dreamed of becoming a cop since she was a little girl and now, that dream is her reality. Though, once she meets the Stevens family, this dream of hers starts to follow the lines of a nightmare much more closely.
When she killed Collins Stevens, head of a Mafia Family, she knew she was putting herself in danger. His younger brother, James Stevens, was ruthless and would do everything in his power to extract vengeance from his brothers killer.
Karbira never thought that the job that she loved would put her at risk not only physically, but in emotionally and morally. James Stevens throws everything in her life into turmoil, endangers her loved ones and twists her lifelong beliefs around until she's not sure whats real anymore.
In the end, Kabira's heart and life are so turned upside down, she's not even sure which side of the battle of good and evil she plays for anymore.

Liliana Romano, a 17 year old woman, is thrown into a marriage with Sebastian Di Salvo, a man who only wants to marry her because she's a pawn in his little game. Sebastian Di Salvo, a 20 year old man, thought that this marriage would be easy and she'd be like all the other women, quiet and obedient, but who knew he'd be in for a hell of a ride! *** "Put the gun down," Sebastian said calmly as he stood in front of me, still in his wedding suit. "Fuck you!," I hissed out as I bunched my wedding dress in my hand, making sure to keep the gun pointed at him. "You've barely been here for an hour and you're already pissing me off," he said, starting to get frustrated. Suddenly, I pressed down on the trigger. I watched as the bullet flew past his head, just skimming his ear, exactly how I had expected it to. He didn't flinch. My eyes moved up to meet his. His chest heaved up and down as his fists were clenched together. His jaw was locked as he glared at me, clearly with murder on his mind. My murder. Oh shit. *** Deep down, even she knew that the beast was once a human. He knew that his angel had once had her own personal hell. 'Everything means nothing without her.'

Distortion
When you live in the lavishly sinful Mafia World, everything is distorted. Corruption, murder, money, drugs, sex, it's all there (not necessarily in that order, mind you), but is it really? Surprisingly, nothing seems tangible in the opulent Dallas underworld. Nothing is written in stone, and absolutely nothing is fully yours (not even family); everything is in a nefarious constant motion. There is always a deal to be made, a sin to sin, a debt to be paid, control to be had. So when you happen to find a forbidden love amongst all the crooked chaos, is that fake too? Or will love actually prevail in this distorted love story? Follow along as Eliza & Aidan struggle to master the art of forbidden love in a not-so forgiving, corrupted world. ***FULL DISCLAIMER: This book is for mature audiences! There's the possibility of sexual scenes, as well as some sexual and physical *abuse* scenes, and possible murder scenarios. It's basically in the description, it's a MAFIA/CRIME Romance Novel. ***Make sure to check out 'American Bad Blood' by @LePetiteJournaliste for Distortion is a complementary novel to that book*** ***ALSO: Check out the 'American Bad Blood' playlist on Spotify!
