#1
The Toy Collector
2025
Starting my last year at Georgetown, I never thought I’d earn my internship on my knees—blindfolded in nothing but my underwear.
But my stalker is clever, deadly, and wielding more power in D.C. than I knew existed. Lorenzo Russo; a kingmaker only few know exists. But he’s real enough to deliver pieces of affection to my doorstep. And now, he's decided I'm his Toy to play with. Operating from the shadows, he learns everything about me. Even my darkest desires—ones I’ve never spoken aloud, only typed into my phone. He doesn’t just want to know me; he wants to own me. And he doesn’t allow others to touch what’s his. I should be scared, but every touch awakens something dark inside me. The more he plays with me, the harder it is to remember why I wanted to run from him.
The Toy Collector
is a dark standalone, obsessive, power-imbalance romance featuring stalking, and a possessive antihero who collects what he controls.
#3
The Debt Collector
2026
I thought losing my mom would be the hardest thing I’d ever have to survive. Turns out that was the easy part. The harder one is willingly saying ‘I do’ to the monster keeping me captive.
Raffaele Russo is the Debt Collector, and he always collects what he’s owed—even when the person who signed the contract is dead and gone. To the world, he is a handsome monster who breaks anyone who stands in his way. To me, he is the devil who ripped me from my home and locked me in a gilded cage. But Raffaele doesn’t just take my freedom; he offers me an ultimatum: marry him, or remain his prisoner. The real choice is whether I choose to wear a leash or stay in my cage. If I become his wife, I can earn a semblance of freedom. If I refuse, I stay his captive forever. He’s playing a high-stakes game with my life, moving me like a sacrificial piece while we circle each other over a chessboard. I should hate the monster who collected me. I should run from the blood on his hands. But as the lines begin to blur, I’m realizing I crave the way he sees me… the way he touches me like no one else has.
The Debt Collector
is the third book in the Russo Mafia series. Each book is a standalone with a HEA. This is a spicy, dark mafia, forced proximity, marriage-of-convenience, possessive antihero romance featuring explicit scenes of violence and sexual content.
