Mafia men speak only one language—power. So I got fluent, fast. And now I can't get enough. Getting kidnapped by my father’s rivals at my own wedding reception wasn’t on my list of shit to do today, but it could definitely work in my favor. These violent, power-hungry criminals are just what I need to seize control of the family from my father. The enemy of my enemy is my friend—or at least a step to grind my red-bottomed heels into on my way to power. King, the combative leader, wants to use me for his own gain. The feeling is ironically mutual. Spectre, the sly fox, is nothing but secrets and mystery, drawing me in despite myself. Gatt, the arms dealer, has a fast tongue and prefers me tied up–but what man wouldn’t? Soldier, their stoic enforcer, is a man of few words—except for when it comes to me. I have to bring these men to heel, one weak link at a time, until they're ready to do my bidding. And if I happen to fall into bed with them, so what? A girl's gotta eat. I intend to wrest my crown from my father, no matter how many bodies I leave in my wake. But will my Kings refuse to bend the knee, or will they fall in line behind their future Queen?

Heleva Risque is not afraid to get her hands dirty, and neither are the heroes she writes. From complete alphaholes to grumpy, brooding bad boys, and everything in between, her heroes are walking red flags and trauma-filled shells of their former selves, but by the end of each story, not only will you want to cry for these wounded, unhinged men, but you'll be crawling into their beds, begging to be their good girls. And you'll love every minute of it. Ms. Risque has several series on the docket, including her leading mafia romance series, the Khula City Crime Syndicate, and a standalone, one-shot romance so dark, so filthy, so sinful, that you'll need the confessional on Sunday to cleanse your soul. If you've got a kindle reads list that would make conversations at Thanksgiving dinner awkward, you're in the right place.
