LETHAL A Devotion & Vice Novel It’s a dark mob smut book about an Eastern European enforcer who’s sent to quietly deal with a family running an unsanctioned trafficking operation in a forest town. He’s cold, methodical, and sadistic in a very controlled way, he doesn’t rush, he studies. The family is violent, sloppy, and crosses lines the mob doesn’t allow, including murder to cover their tracks. He slowly dismantles them psychologically before burning everything down, but along the way he becomes obsessively fixated on a woman not in a romantic way, more like control, denial, and possession. It’s about power, consequence, and obsession, with a lot of dark erotic tension and morally ruined dynamics. Definitely not a redemption romance.
