Crimson Ties (Crimson #1)

Born into a world of power and danger, Amelia King's life is a gilded cage, ruled by the iron fist of her father, the notorious head of the King crime family. Her every move is watched, her destiny controlled.

Yet, Amelia yearns for freedom, for a taste of the wild side. And on one fateful night, she indulges in a moment of pure recklessness, surrendering to a fiery passion with a mysterious stranger in the shadows of an alleyway.

But fate has a twisted sense of humor. Amelia's steamy encounter was not with just any man but Alexei Ivanov, the dashing heir of the King family's fiercest rivals. This revelation ignites a forbidden romance, a dangerous liaison that defies family loyalties and threatens the fragile balance of power.

Torn between duty and desire, Amelia is caught in a whirlwind of secret rendezvous and sultry nights with Alexei. He's the epitome of everything she's been taught to despise, yet he's the one man she finds irresistibly alluring.

When someone discovers their love and attempts to use the information to seize power for themselves, can they survive in the deadly chessboard of mafia wars, or will it be the spark that ignites an all-out conflict? In this steamy, heart-pounding tale, Amelia King must decide if her heart's yearning for Alexei is worth risking everything she's ever known.
