The Lovely Darkness

Dakota

I’m not like them.

Not like any member of my morally upstanding and illustrious family and yet, I’m stuck in this vortex of protecting the name and its legacy.

When what I really want is to make my money and lay up under the only man who has ever taken my breath away–and I mean that literally.

He is everything I was taught not to want.

For some time, he’s been my secret, my saving grace, my dark addiction.

Now, he’s my salvation.

Fury

I craved her at first sight.

In my life where truth is scarce and vulnerability is lethal; she dismantled my defenses.

When our worlds collide, navigating treacherous family loyalties and public

scrutiny threatens the one thing I never imagined having: love.

Claiming her is more than a victory, it’s survival. And I will break the law, defy every warning and dispatch any rival who dares to get in our way.
