New Release: The Beast's Hostage - A Mafia Captive Romance
A BWWM interracial mafia adaptation of Beauty and the Beast,
The Beast's Hostage
is a suspenseful gothic tale of passion, betrayal, and redemption. Perfect for fans of high-stakes romantic suspense and morally gray heroes!

INGRID - I built my life on logic, order, and determination. As an attorney, my battles are usually fought in the courtroom—until my father’s debts drag me into a world where justice is paid in blood. Now, I’m collateral to Dante Rosati, a crime lord whose name alone strikes fear into the hearts of men. I should hate him—I do hate him—but there’s something about him I can’t ignore. Beneath his cold exterior lies a man haunted by betrayal and driven by a twisted sense of loyalty. The more I learn about him, the harder it is to deny the pull between us. Still, I refuse to be his pawn, his possession. I will escape, no matter the cost…
DANTE - My world is built on fear and blood, and trust is a luxury I can’t afford. When Ingrid Monroe is thrust into my life, she’s meant to be leverage. Nothing more. But her fiery defiance and sharp mind challenge me in ways I never anticipated. Ingrid's presence is a constant reminder of what I can never have—peace, redemption...love. I tell myself I’m keeping her to ensure my victory, but the truth is, I can’t ever let her go. As enemies close in, I’m left with one truth: protecting Ingrid means risking my empire... and my heart.
**Available now on Amazon (Kindle Unlimited)!** Limited time launch price special.
