They give me a choice between captivity or death. But I'm giving them something better—a queen. I'm no stranger to the mafia underworld, but the Wildcards are a different breed. When I become a liability, they kidnap me to stack the deck—and in their world, the house always wins. Spade, the unhinged brawler, is determined to bend me to his will, but I'm not going down without a fight, even if it's to the death. Joker, the blue-eyed blonde playboy, has a closet full of clothes left from random one-night stands, so when he calls me beautiful, I know it's all an act. BlackJack, the strong, silent type, is always watching me from afar, but it's what he doesn't do that leaves me wanting to hear my name on his lips. Ace, no stranger to this business, rules with an iron fist, but beneath the surface is a beast he struggles to keep leashed, and if I'm not careful, it'll bite me, too. They're thwarting every attempt at escape, and I'm out of ideas, so you know what they say: if you can't beat 'em, join 'em. Every minute spent with these irresistible men drags me further into their world, and suddenly, I can't remember why I ever wanted to leave. When their enemies come looking for blood, I'm suddenly more than a liability—I'm their weakness. I'm the queen of their hearts, but do I have what it takes to be the Queen of the Wildcards when all hell breaks loose?

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.
