Social Syndicate Rejects A Dark Mafia Suspense Romance - Book 1 In our kind of family, the only sibling who held all the power and demanded respect from the Sacred Council was the eldest. I was the second born but my brother was different and believed in equality … of power and responsibility. We ruled Moldova as one team. Me, Arian, and Vanya. So, when I was instructed to ensure our family association with one of the most powerful global industries wasn’t disclosed as threatened, I didn’t protest at what he expected of me. Taking a wife was something I intended to do at some point in my life. Now was a good a time as any … except the fiery redhead wasn’t of like mind. It didn’t matter. I needed to make sure our ‘business’ remained deep secret and as my wife, her entire family would be forced into compliance. She refused my decent proposal but I wasn’t fazed. I married her anyway. Making her fall in love with me was the easy part, keeping her in line would be the fun part … one spanking at a time. Except nothing was ever as easy. Our union unearthed a betrayer in our midst, out to destroy everything we have worked to achieve. The family name we’d given our all to become equally respected and feared, depending on which side of the fence you were, had to be saved. Now, it was up to me to keep her safe while I had to do whatever it took to keep our secret secure and eliminate those who weren’t prepared to play by our rules … Note: Although the blurb is in 1st person, the book is written in 3rd person.

Author pseudonyms - Isabel James, Kimila Taylor “Isn’t it a universal truth that it’s our singular experiences and passion, for whatever thing or things, which molds us all into the individuals we become? Whether it's hidden in the depths of our soul or exposed for all to see?” Linzi Basset is a South African born animal rights supporter with a poet’s heart, and she is also a bestselling fiction writer of suspense filled romance erotica books; who as the latter, refuses to be bound to any one sub-genre. She prefers instead to stretch herself as a storyteller which has resulted in her researching and writing historical and even paranormal themed works. Her initial offering: Club Alpha Cove, a BDSM club suspense series released back in 2015, reached Amazon’s Bestseller list, and she has been on those lists ever since. Labeling her as prolific is a gross understatement as just a few short years later she has now been published thirty-nine times; a total which fails to take into account the three other published works of her alter ego: Isabel James who co-authors—nor does it include the five additional new works marked for imminent release. “I write from the inside out. My stories are both inside me and a part of me so it can be either pleasurable to release them or painful to carve them out. I live every moment of every story I write. So, if you're looking for spicy and suspenseful, I'm your girl... woman... writer... you know what I mean!" Linzi believes that by telling stories in her own voice, she can better share with her readers the essence of her being: her passionate nature; her motivations; and her wildest fantasies. She feels every touch as she writes, every kiss, every harsh word uttered, and this to her is the key to a never-ending love of writing. Ultimately, all books by Linzi Basset are about passion. To her, passion is the driving force of all emotion; whether it be lust, desire, hate, trust, or love. This is the underlying message contained in her books. Her advice: “Believe in the passions driving your desires; live them; enjoy them; and allow them to bring you happiness.” Find her also on amazon.com/author/isabeljames in a collaboration of emotional and spiritual tales of discovery written in rich prose.
