At just twenty years old, Vincent was forced into the leadership role in one of the most ruthless crime families in Florida after the brutal murder of his father and sister.
Hardened by grief, Vincent became cold and calculated, living only to expand his empire and protect the only family he had left. Love was nonexistent in a life like his.
Then came Anila. She is the opposite of everything Vincent knows. An equestrian with a heart of gold and dreams of making an impact in her community. She's no stranger to sacrifice, and falling for Vincent's dangerously magnetic charm is the last risk she can afford to take.
Vincent isn't used to hearing the word no, and Anila isn't used to being pursued with such intensity. Their connection is undeniable, and their passion unstoppable, but a glimpse into Vincent's unhinged antics forces Anila to run away.
In this African American Urban Romance standalone, boundaries are pushed past their limits, and the stakes rise higher than ever. Can Anila truly love a man whose empire is built on blood? Or will loving the mafia menace be one of the best decisions in her life?
