Dark romance

Grayson: Seven years ago, I left the special forces and my home after a tragic betrayal. I carefully constructed a new life in New York. I thought I had it all. A world-famous boxing trainer by day. A Mafia hitman by night. Free to live in the darkness to do what I was trained to do. To kill. I finally felt free. But one kiss was all it took to shatter life as I knew it. The one woman who hated my guts, scaled the walls I built around my black heart. My ray of sunshine. Just when I believed I could have it all, life blows it up right before my eyes. I know how far I’m willing to go to fight for her. But can she truly love someone who could never give her the fairytale she so desperately craves? Maddie: I was sick of being the family disappointment. The one who could never get a man to stick around. So, I kissed a lot of frogs to try and find my Prince. Instead, I fell in love with the villain. The last man on earth I thought I could ever love. He might call me sunshine, but I crave his darkness. I wasn’t meant for his world, but he took me anyway, and I never wanted to leave. Sometimes life doesn’t give you a choice. Can I give up on my search when I have the monster offering me the world? Even if loving me puts us both in danger.

Our eyes meet across a sea of people in a crowded club and the effect of his gaze is immediate. Broad shoulders, piercing eyes, an intense aura emanating from him, he’s nothing like any man I’ve ever seen and he makes me feel things I never have before. When I attend an event a week later and see him there, I’m determined to find out who he is. I get more than I bargained for when I witness him execute a man. Turns out the handsome stranger from the club is the head of the most powerful drug cartel in England. And once he sees me, he’s as determined to have me as I am to evade him.

But Thiago ‘El Diablo’ da Silva has decided he wants me and what the devil wants, he gets. And he won’t stop until he’s found me and made me his. This is a mature, dark cartel romance with a sometimes very irredeemable jealous/possessive hero with extreme proclivities towards violence. It contains situations that some readers might find offensive.

The Cruel Prince meets Ninth House in this dangerously romantic dark academia fantasy, where a lost heiress must infiltrate an arcane society and live with the vampire she suspects killed her family and kidnapped her sister. It began long before my time, but something has always hunted our family. Orphaned heiress Kidan Adane grew up far from the arcane society she was born into, where human bloodlines gain power through vampire companionship. When her sister, June, disappears, Kidan is convinced a vampire stole her—the very vampire bound to their family, the cruel yet captivating Susenyos Sagad. To find June, Kidan must infiltrate the elite Uxlay University—where students study to ensure peaceful coexistence between humans and vampires and inherit their family legacies. Kidan must survive living with Susenyos—even as he does everything he can to drive her away. It doesn’t matter that Susenyos’s wickedness speaks to Kidan’s own violent nature and tempts her to surrender to a life of darkness. She must find her sister and kill Susenyos at all costs. When a murder mirroring June’s disappearance shakes Uxlay, Kidan sinks further into the ruthless underworld of vampires, risking her very soul. There she discovers a centuries\-old threat—and June could be at the center of it. To save her sister, Kidan must bring Uxlay to its knees and either break free from the horrors of her own actions or embrace the dark entanglements of love—and the blood it requires.
