Six years ago, Hannah Montague walked away from everything her father built. The daughter of Bull Riders president Fernando Montague, she was Love Valley's cherished princess until she found the pages that made her believe her father was a murderer. She left before sunrise, abandoning her mother, her legacy, and Graham Melville, the boy who swore she'd never face the world alone. Now Fernando is dead, and Hannah comes home to a town at war. The brotherhood has shattered into three rival clubs, and two ruthless presidents want her mother dead and Hannah in their pocket. Graham, now president of the Bull Riders, is the only man she has ever loved, and the one man she can't afford to trust with the truth. But the enemy she should fear most is the friend who brought her home. When betrayal turns deadly, Hannah must dig through her father's buried secrets and decide whether justice means revenge or mercy. In Love Valley, loyalty always demands a price.

The Mafia's gold and the girl they all wanted

Mafia

5.0

At thirteen, Sophie Vincenzo hid in a wardrobe and watched her parents die at the hands of Scofield Tyrone's men. She survived, but the little girl she had been died that night. Jackie Graham, a feared gangster bound to a crime lord, was never meant to be her guardian. But guilt over what his own men did to her family made him her silent protector. When a nightclub operation goes horribly wrong, Sophie's best friends, Cynthia and Vine, disappear into a human-trafficking network, Sophie narrowly escapes the same fate when Jackie intervenes and takes her somewhere safe. For the first time in years, she has someone she can trust. Jackie teaches her how to survive a city where innocence is a liability and beautiful smiles hide murderous intentions. Three years later, Sophie is twenty, and the line between protector and something more is crumbling. Then Scofield offers Jackie a place at his side in the hunt for a billion dollars in gold. It's enough money to save Jackie's dying mother, and enough danger to expose Sophie to the man who murdered her parents. Sophie answers with a plan: get close to Scofield, betray him, and steal the gold while the crime houses tear each other apart. Jackie agrees. He doesn't know she never planned to run. She wants vengeance. She wants her friends back. She wants an empire no crime lord can touch. When grief and secrets drive them apart, Jackie must face the possibility that the woman he loves has become everything he feared. In a world where loyalty is bought with blood and love is the most dangerous betrayal, nobody decides Sophie's fate but her.
