Why Choose
The Venom We Bleed
2025
Lucy Smoke
Silverwood Public: Home to liars, thieves, and worst of all … the Scorpion Kings.
I was the Queen at my old school. Born into wealth and power. Now, thanks to my family’s deceit, I’m a pariah and a target. I’ve got no friends. No parents. No money. And no fucks left to give. If the Scorpion Kings want to damage the new outcast of Silverwood, they’ll soon learn that anyone can be a killer if you give them the right incentive.

The Demons We Hide
2025
Lucy Smoke
The Scorpion Kings took me. They made me believe in them. Gave me everything I’d given up hoping for. Then they burned it all down. Now, it’s time to show them that I’m not a damsel in distress. I’m not a victim. I am the villain in this story. It’s time to show them all that even fallen princesses can become Queens. _

Syndicate of Sins
2023
Marie Maravilla
The problem with caging a predator, someday, they may get out… Scarletta Bastard, daughter of a traitor. To the Italian Don of New York, I’m nothing more than a tool to be wielded. My obedience was the price I had to pay for the sins of my father. But Dominick Romano should have worked on gaining my loyalty because the chains he shackled me with have been undone. The Four Families have always run New York. Italian Mafia, Irish Mob, Russian Bratva, and the Jirocho Yakuza Clan. An alliance cloaked in proclamations of peace while they hold knives to one another’s backs. But a new player has emerged, The Syndicate. Three men born of the same blood as those whose kingdoms they’ve come to conquer. They think they can use me the same way my uncle did, but they’re in for a rude awakening when they realize I’m not a damsel in distress. There’s been a blade in my hand this whole time, and I’ve been waiting to land the blow that starts the bloodbath. I will not bow at their feet. But soon, all of New York, and those who think they can rule it, will kneel at mine.
The Secrets We Bury
2025
Lucy Smoke
The deeper we dig, the darker the secrets.
Silverwood is filled with nothing but liars and deceivers. I thought I could trust them. I thought I could have them. Now, I know … none of it was ever truly mine to keep. There is a thin line between love and obsession. The Scorpion Kings have crossed it. And I fear I’m not far behind.

The Hate We Breathe
2025
Lucy Smoke
Monsters don’t just live in the dark, they breathe it. I thought I’d already survived the worst. I was wrong. Falling once nearly destroyed me. Falling for them? The Scorpion Kings? It might be the end of me. They cracked open every secret I tried to bury. Now, we’ve crossed a line we can’t come back from—There’s just two questions now left to be answered. Who killed Morpheus Calloway? And who is trying to kill me?
