Blood in the Water (The Shadows Syndicate, #1)

First, he adorned me in diamonds. Then, he killed my father.
Now, I’ll make him pay.

I’ve waited my whole life for Maximiliano Volpe to propose. But on my twenty-first birthday, his sparkling gift offers no such promise — probably because he’s been too busy preparing the ultimate betrayal. What’s a mafia princess to do?

Take revenge, of course.

It helps to have a brooding powerhouse of a bodyguard by your side — but even my devoted Caspian needs reinforcements. So, I turn my pursuit to the four Shadows: reclusive killers who belong to the highest bidder.

And there’s the catch. My inheritance is currently lining Max’s pockets.

If I want the Shadows on my side, I’m going to need to convince them I’m worth their while. But the mere sight of them has my body rebelling against every sensible thought in my head. And I find myself wanting them all.

Payback is going to be a thrill.

Blood in the Wateris a multi-first person POV mafia romance, with heart-pumping action and a heroine who doesn’t have to choose. It's the first book in The Shadows Syndicate series.
