It is a deliciously dark, fated mates, enemies to lovers, age-gap, vampire mafia romance. You will love these novels where the passion is fiery, the loyalty is fierce, and the stakes are high. Each book in this collection is a stand-alone, with different characters and a guaranteed happily ever.</span></div></div>Jannat Bhathttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06716056572867723783noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7436817337468937981.post-44380076821285261452023-01-17T00:18:00.000-08:002023-01-17T00:18:05.588-08:00Rhapsody Of The Stars by Jannat Bhat<p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEglDux3bhSwQbhO6weuOrSL-9w4m9Bs393aNu_mz5nXH-EiTt2NTZzzil62RWXCSU51MSEZ3U_o1Azk93ZCk3a7bR0BuzmD6S1kbjHky8fUfsTO01Mddd1gLaeVn8ZOn14ATdkG7uKB5c5tMmYkjbQw6ZmdeqCP4ZoY6fsxsRJvOmv9dbNNcTsVoq5a2g/s851/unnamed.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="315" data-original-width="851" height="236" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEglDux3bhSwQbhO6weuOrSL-9w4m9Bs393aNu_mz5nXH-EiTt2NTZzzil62RWXCSU51MSEZ3U_o1Azk93ZCk3a7bR0BuzmD6S1kbjHky8fUfsTO01Mddd1gLaeVn8ZOn14ATdkG7uKB5c5tMmYkjbQw6ZmdeqCP4ZoY6fsxsRJvOmv9dbNNcTsVoq5a2g/w640-h236/unnamed.png" width="640" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><span style="background-color: white; color: #050505; font-size: 15px; white-space: pre-wrap;"><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: georgia;">Kairo is here and setting the stage on fire! </span><img alt="🔥" height="16" referrerpolicy="origin-when-cross-origin" src="https://static.xx.fbcdn.net/images/emoji.php/v9/ta9/1.5/16/1f525.png" style="border: 0px; font-family: georgia;" width="16" /></div></span><p></p><div class="x11i5rnm xat24cr x1mh8g0r x1vvkbs xtlvy1s x126k92a" style="background-color: white; color: #050505; font-size: 15px; margin: 0.5em 0px 0px; overflow-wrap: break-word; white-space: pre-wrap;"><div dir="auto"><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: georgia;">As part of the release celebrations, I'm thrilled to share a small glimpse into the life of this musician and his muse.</span><span class="x3nfvp2 x1j61x8r x1fcty0u xdj266r xhhsvwb xat24cr xgzva0m xxymvpz xlup9mm x1kky2od" style="display: inline-flex; height: 16px; margin: 0px 1px; vertical-align: middle; width: 16px;"><img alt="🎻" height="16" referrerpolicy="origin-when-cross-origin" src="https://static.xx.fbcdn.net/images/emoji.php/v9/ta4/1.5/16/1f3bb.png" style="border: 0px; text-align: center;" width="16" /></span></div><span style="font-family: georgia;"></span></div><div dir="auto" style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div dir="auto" style="text-align: center;">***</div><div dir="auto" style="text-align: center;"><br /></div></div><div class="x11i5rnm xat24cr x1mh8g0r x1vvkbs xtlvy1s x126k92a" style="background-color: white; color: #050505; font-size: 15px; margin: 0.5em 0px 0px; overflow-wrap: break-word; white-space: pre-wrap;"><div dir="auto" style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: georgia;">"Keeping my face carefully blank, I turn slowly in my seat to see Chase Knight making his way toward us.

One moment, they can be a source of great joy, and the next . . . they're just a painful reminder of happiness lost. Because when Carter was injured in an accident, he woke up missing all of his memories of the last two years, forgetting he ever loved me. Now he refuses to believe we’re no longer enemies. He refuses to let me be close to him. Now those missing memories only cause me pain.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">Despite that, I refuse to give up on our love and our memories. I’ve decided to fight for him. No matter how hard he tries to push me away, I'm going to show him we're meant to be.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">But I don’t count on the scars his continuous insults create. And when our family dynamic shifts, I'm worried that not only have I irrevocably lost him, but there also might be serious consequences of his hate.</div></span><div class="MsoNormal">

Sophia Kade’s one true desire was to make a name in the music industry. So, when her school announced hosting the Global Musical Icon Competition, a life-changing event for the winning pair, it was the perfect opportunity. The trouble was, that she needed a partner.</span></span></div><div dir="auto" style="text-align: center;"><span face="Segoe UI Historic, Segoe UI, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif" style="color: #050505;"><span style="font-size: 15px; white-space: pre-wrap;">
When the God of music, Kairo Knight arrives in town to take part in GMIC, she could ask him to help her out in becoming the next best thing, right? But it was out of the question when Kairo looked at her as if she was the worst thing to happen to humankind. Of course, with talent like his comes arrogance. So, she did what any youngster in her shoes would do.</span></span></div><div dir="auto" style="text-align: center;"><span face="Segoe UI Historic, Segoe UI, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif" style="color: #050505;"><span style="font-size: 15px; white-space: pre-wrap;">

But the unexpected happened. She fell for him, and he betrayed her in the worst possible way. Who was this guy who hated the world which adored him? </span></span></div><div dir="auto" style="text-align: center;"><span face="Segoe UI Historic, Segoe UI, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif" style="color: #050505;"><span style="font-size: 15px; white-space: pre-wrap;">
People say music was his obsession until she came into his life. But after what he had done, she was out to destroy him.</span></span></div><div dir="auto" style="text-align: center;"><span face="Segoe UI Historic, Segoe UI, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif" style="color: #050505;"><span style="font-size: 15px; white-space: pre-wrap;">
Twists and turns, push and pull, and explosive chemistry make for one epic musical tale.

<p class="has-text-align-center" style="text-align: center;">Losing my innocence at thirteen, in the most brutal way, changed me. My kidnapper stole my childhood and tried to break me. The knowledge my father orchestrated the entire situation hardened my heart, and instead of grieving his death, I celebrated it.</p>
<!--/wp:paragraph-->
<!--wp:paragraph {"align":"center"}-->
<p class="has-text-align-center" style="text-align: center;">One down. Many more to go.</p>

<p class="has-text-align-center" style="text-align: center;">My burning need for revenge has only grown over the years, keeping me focused on my goals and enabling my rise to power.</p>

<p class="has-text-align-center" style="text-align: center;">Except for <em>him</em>—the brother of my abductor. Massimo fights me every step of the way, but I’m not about to let the explosive chemistry between us deter me from my chosen path. His family is my enemy. <em>He</em> is my enemy, even if he doesn’t know it yet.</p>

<p class="has-text-align-center" style="text-align: center;"><strong>Excerpt</strong></p>
<!--/wp:paragraph-->
<!--wp:paragraph-->
<p style="text-align: center;">Lust blazes in his eyes. “I will wait for you to come to me.” </p>
<!--/wp:paragraph-->
<!--wp:paragraph-->
<p style="text-align: center;">“You’ll be waiting,” I blurt, irritated when amusement skates across his face. I hate how he can obviously tell it’s a lie. He can see I’m floundering. That his want is not one-sided. </p>
<!--/wp:paragraph-->
<!--wp:paragraph-->
<p style="text-align: center;">“I have a hand, and my blue balls can be patient.” A teasing smile spreads across his mouth, and I’m ensnared. Massimo is truly beautiful, and I only hope I’m strong enough to resist. I already suspect I’m not. “To a point,” he whispers against my ear, sending warm shivers coursing along my flesh. I squirm on his lap, failing to ignore the hard, thick length pulsing underneath me. </p>
<!--/wp:paragraph-->
<!--wp:paragraph-->
<p style="text-align: center;">Massimo groans, and his eyes darken with undeniable desire. “You were put on this earth to test me. I’m sure of it.” </p>
<!--/wp:paragraph-->
<!--wp:paragraph-->
<p style="text-align: center;">I can’t smother my smile in time. </p>
<!--/wp:paragraph-->
<!--wp:paragraph-->
<p style="text-align: center;">“One kiss,” he says, his eyes dropping to my mouth as his tongue darts out and he wets his lips. “Would you deny your husband a kiss on his wedding night?” </p>
<!--/wp:paragraph-->
<!--wp:paragraph-->
<p style="text-align: center;">“I have kissed you today.” </p>
<!--/wp:paragraph-->
<!--wp:paragraph-->
<p style="text-align: center;">He shakes his head as his fingers sweep back and forth across my mouth, making it harder and harder to resist temptation. “<em>I </em>have kissed <em>you</em>. You have gone along with it because it was expected.” </p>
<!--/wp:paragraph-->
<!--wp:paragraph-->
<p style="text-align: center;">He’s as delusional as me if he truly believes that. I drive my hands into his hair without even thinking about it. “Will everything be a negotiation between us?” </p>
<!--/wp:paragraph-->
<!--wp:paragraph-->
<p style="text-align: center;">His brows climb to his hairline and a devilish grin widens his lush mouth. “Do we know any other way to be?” </p>
<!--/wp:paragraph-->
<!--wp:paragraph-->
<p style="text-align: center;">“One kiss. Just one kiss.” The words feel like lies as I spout them. </p>
<!--/wp:paragraph-->
<!--wp:paragraph-->
<p style="text-align: center;">“That is all I am asking.” He closes his eyes, moaning softly as my fingers explore the thick strands of his black hair. “That feels so incredibly good.” </p>
<!--/wp:paragraph-->
<!--wp:paragraph-->
<p style="text-align: center;">I brush my mouth against his, and his eyes pop wide. His hands flatten against my back, pushing me in closer to his tempting body. I can indulge in one kiss. It is my wedding night after all, and my husband is one of the sexiest men alive. It’s not wrong to take this one thing for myself, right? “Just one kiss,” I remind him as our breaths comingle. </p>
<!--/wp:paragraph-->
<!--wp:paragraph-->
<p style="text-align: center;">“Only one.” </p>
<!--/wp:paragraph-->
<!--wp:paragraph-->
<p style="text-align: center;">Closing my eyes, I lower my mouth to his and descend into sheer bliss. He lets me control it, at first, and I’m surprised at the potent need driving me to take everything as I prod at the seam of his lips with my tongue. He opens instantly, letting my tongue plunge inside his mouth. I reposition myself on his lap, straddling his hips, so I can properly kiss him, and it’s that moment when all bets are off. </p>

<p>“Get the fuck out of my house,” he spat, blocking Theia from Tenoch’s view.</p>
<p>“That’s no way to speak to your guests, gringo. We just stopped by to say hello and discuss some… unfinished business. But first, I want to meet that lovely little creature hiding behind you,” he said, the corners of his mouth ticking upwards into a punchable cheshire grin. “Come here, mamita, let me have a good look at you.”</p>
<p>Before Tom had a chance to take one step in Tenoch’s direction, one of</p>
<p>the guns on Jake was now pointed directly at him. “What do you want?” he</p>
<p>demanded, looking back at Theia who had tears streaming down her face.</p>
<p>“Well, Tom, we seem to have a couple of problems. One: you are refusing to</p>
<p>continue a particular service your papi used to provide. And two: you know</p>
<p>what I do, and that doesn’t sit well with me. But no worries, I found a solution</p>
<p>now since I know what you…<em> do</em>,” he said, eyeing Theia with his cocky grin still plastered on his face.</p>

<p>To succeed in finding answers and maintaining her sanity, important choices must be made, and the collateral damage will be monumental.</p>
<p>Was it better to remain silent and in control, or let her inner demon out?</p>

<p style="text-align: center;"><strong>EXCERPT:</strong></p>
<p>No matter the adversity, I could always count on one constant.</p>
<p>Elena Lombardi was a weapon.</p>
<p>And she was <em>mine</em>.</p>
<p>“Put the gun down, <em>cuore mia</em>,” I coaxed, letting the comatose man drop unceremoniously to the ground so I could go to her. She kept the gun raised, almost frozen with her determination to protect me, until the barrel was pressed to my stomach. I put my hand over the weapon and released the chamber so it fell into my waiting hand beneath. Then, I carefully untangled her fingers from the grip and used my free hand to sink my fingers deep in her hair, angling her head to take her mouth in a possessive kiss.</p>
<p>Instantly, she melted. All that dangerous revolve dissolving on my tongue like fucking candy, sweet and addictive. I ate at her until she trembled. Unable to resist, I used my other hand, still cradling the dismantled gun, to palm her sex. It was as wet as I’d known it would be, her juices slick on my fingers, on the weapon that had been intended to kill us both.</p>
<p>When I broke away, she clutched me close, her breath as harsh as mine.</p>
<p>“No one will take you from me without a fight,” she whispered vehemently, the nails of the hand she had curled around my neck sinking into my skin so I hissed.</p>
<p>“Anyone who tries to come between our love will suffer then die,” I swore to her, kissing her again because I was high on adrenaline, on the scent of her damp pussy in my nose and the victory of a fight won in my blood.</p>

<p><strong>Heartbeat Girl: A vampire rock band romance</strong><br /><strong>Michelle Gross</strong><br />Publication date: December 5th 2021<br />Genres: Adult, Paranormal, Romance</p><blockquote><p>Desperate times call for daring measures.</p>
<p>At least that’s what I tell myself for packing up and hitting the road with America’s newest and most popular rock band, The Oppressors. The lanky tattooed men are suspicious. Before I stepped on the bus with them, they’ve always made me nervous.</p>
<p>Something’s not adding up, though. There are strange events I’m noticing around them.</p>
<ol>
<li>The hazy, vacant stare of the woman in their dressing room.</li>
<li>And the blood on her shirt.</li>
<li>The beat less sound of Liam’s heart when I lay my head on his chest.</li>
</ol>
<p>I don’t think it’s safe to be close with the band, and most certainly not fall in love with one. So why do they make me feel like I’m a part of them? Their close-knitted trio.</p>
<p>What happens when I figure out what I’m dying to know?</p>
<p>This is a dual POV steamy vampire romance standalone that centers around bonds of love and friendship. 18+ dark, explicit sexual scenes, and lots of blood.</p>
<p>Paranormal romance-18+++</p>

<p>Author Bio:</p>
<p>Michelle is from a small town in Eastern Kentucky where possums try to blend in with the cats on the porch and bears are likely to chase your pets—this is very true, it happened with her sister’s dog. Despite the extra needed protection for your pets, she loves the mountains she calls home. She has a man and twin girls who are the light of her life and the reason she’s slightly crazy.<br />
As a kid, she was that cousin, that friend, that sister and daughter, the talker who could spin a tale and make-believe into any little thing so it was no surprise when she found love in reading, and figured all these characters inside her head needed an outlet. They wanted to be heard, so she wrote.<br />
The voices keep growing faster than she gets the time to write.<br />
The stories are never going to end. That’s perfectly okay, though. We never want to stop an adventure.<br />
She writes and loves many different genres so sign up to her mailing list to keep updated on her releases!</p>

</i><br />
Jilted by my fiance.<br />
A disappointment to my family.<br />
Haunted by my childhood traumas.<br />
I felt so much all my life that I resolved to feeling nothing at all.</p>
<p>Until I met my match.</p>
<p>As the most infamous mafioso of the 21st century, Dante Salvatore was madly passionate, unequivocally bad, and entirely too dangerous to know. He was everything I abhorred, yet I found myself representing him in the biggest criminal trial of the decade.</p>
<p>I was so focused on winning and achieving the success I deserved that I didn’t notice the gorgeous black-eyed man’s effect on me until it was too late. My icy heart had been held too close to his flame and now I wouldn’t let Dante go down without fighting with everything I had in me.</p>
<p>Even if the cost of a new life with him meant the loss of my old life and everything I thought I held dear.</p>

<p>In an alternate Victorian England, clockwork cyborgs provide the primary source of labor for the upper class. Known as biomatons, they are property by law and have been manipulated and mind-controlled into subservience.</p>
<p>Taryn Roft, a 17-year-old girl, attending classes at Grafton’s School of Mechanicks in London has a secret. What’s even worse—she cannot remember anything before her twelfth birthday.</p>
<p>When a mysterious privateer discovers her secret, he offers her an ultimatum: accompany him to his airship, or her secret will be revealed to everyone. For Taryn, it’s not much of a choice. Facing prejudice and cruelty may be nothing new to the only girl at an all-boys’ school, but the further from home she gets, the darker her situation becomes.</p>

<p><strong>Highland Hero</strong><br /><strong>Cynthia Breeding</strong><br />(Children of the Mist, #2)<br />Published by: Entangled: Amara<br />Publication date: June 14th 2021<br />Genres: Adult, Historical Romance</p><blockquote><p>When Juliana Caldwell is abducted from a MacGregor gathering to become the bride of Neal Cameron, time is of the essence to find her. Rory MacGregor is the best tracker the clan has and is ordered to bring her back, even though the two of them have never agreed on anything including that the sky is blue and the grass green.</p>
<p>He certainly would not be Juliana’s first choice of a hero, but at the moment she isn’t going to quibble about who her rescuer is. She’ll do anything to escape, even pretending to be hand-fasted to Rory in order to get the Cameron laird to release her. That plan soon goes awry, and she and Rory are pursued by a determined Neal and they take a circuitous route home, only to be caught in a blizzard that closes the mountain pass they need to take.</p>
<p>They are stranded at Invergarry Castle which poses its own problems since the MacDonnells are friends of the MacGregors and the pseudo-hand-fasting suddenly becomes real. Rory begins to realize that the idea rather appeals to him, but breaking the news to Juliana will be another matter.</p>

</div><div><br /></div><div><b>Blurb:</b>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">Betraying the most powerful man in New York wasn’t something I ever envisioned when I first started playing games with Winston Constantine. But he’s engaged in far more dangerous games than ours, and his enemies are out for blood.</span>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">Winston has my heart, the Morellis have incriminating photos, and I’m left with nothing except three stepbrothers who want to hurt me and a future in doubt. I knew Winston wouldn’t be my prince charming, but that didn’t stop me from falling for him.</span>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">After all, the slippers fit, and I let myself believe I’d be dancing with Winston forever.</span>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">Until too much truth comes to light.</span>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">Until I realize instead of ruling the board, I was just a pawn.</span>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">In the end, I have only one question. When his game with me is over, will I be able to pretend as if the glass slipper wasn’t a perfect fit?</span>

<p style="text-align: center;">—</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong>EXCERPT:</strong></p>
<p>“They’re seniors at Portland State,” Kayleigh hissed under her breath as the bouncer glanced at their IDs and ushered them inside. Miller wiggled his eyebrows as the three of them hurried through the doors. The bar was lively, but not as crowded as Jo had expected. The stage was just a small platform in the back corner with a few lights pointed in its direction. Wires and musical instruments were strewn about, but none of the band members had surfaced yet.</p>
<p>“I’ve never heard of them,” Jo admitted.</p>
<p>“They’re about to make it big,” Kayleigh insisted, raising onto her tiptoes to get a look at the line out the windows. “I can’t see Addie or Liv anymore.” She turned to Miller. “What are your roommates’ names again?”</p>
<p>Miller frowned and shrugged.</p>
<p>Jo stifled a snort. At least it wasn’t just her.</p>
<p>“You don’t know any of their names?” Kayleigh demanded.</p>
<p>Miller narrowed his eyes, considering this. “Pretty sure one of them is Alan—big guy with the goofy hair? And one of them might be Gatsby. Or maybe he just likes <em>The Great Gatsby</em>…” He shook his head. “Nah, he doesn’t seem like the kind to read. I think it’s his name.”</p>
<p>Kayleigh threw her hands up, her gaze now moving on to survey the rest of the crowd—a few people were wearing T-shirts with the name <em>UNITED FATES </em>scrawled across the front, but not many. She jutted her chin toward the bar and elbowed Jo in the ribs. “You should get the drinks. You look the most twenty-one of the three of us.”</p>
<p>Jo shot an uneasy glance toward the bar and adjusted the straps of her tank top. She already had the wristband from the front door. The hard part was over. She forced a smile and flipped her hair over her shoulders. She’d curled it tonight, and the tinted lights overhead were making it look more wine-colored than its usual copper shade. “I’ll be right back.”</p>
<p>The bartender did a quick once-over as she approached. “What can I get you?” His hair was nearly as red as Johanna’s was, complete with a matching mustache. He also looked to be barely twenty-one himself.</p>
<p>“Three beers.” Her gaze swept the bar, and she pointed to a fish-shaped tap handle. “That one.” She had no idea if <em>that one</em> was any good, but the bartender turned away wordlessly and grabbed three glasses.</p>
<p>“Those all for you?”</p>
<p>A man slid into the chair on Johanna’s left. The first thing she noticed was the tattoos. He braced an arm on the bar, revealing a sleeve all the way from his wrist to his shoulder beneath his white T-shirt. All of the images and words blurred seamlessly together, the black ink stark against his pale skin. A silver coin on a long chain dangled from his neck as he leaned forward.</p>
<p>The second thing she noticed was how inky and gelled his hair was, styled to stand up just-so in the front. He must have spent at least half as long as she had in front of the mirror tonight.</p>
<p>The final thing she noticed was the way his eyes lingered on her body. He found her face eventually, but it was a steep climb to get there. He started at her legs, then gradually made it to her hips, her waist, her chest, and then, finally, her eyes. He wasn’t even being subtle about it. He <em>wanted</em> her to see him looking at her.</p>
<p>From what she could tell, he had a nice body, too. But she definitely wasn’t about to give him the satisfaction of watching <em>her</em> check <em>him</em> out.</p>
<p>“I don’t have NPS tattooed on my lip for nothing,” she said as the bartender returned and slid the beers across the counter to her.</p>
<p>“NPS?” asked the mystery guy.</p>
<p>She quirked an eyebrow at him over her shoulder. “No pussy shit.”</p>

<p><strong>Jagged Line Paradise</strong><br /><strong>Brynn Ford</strong><br />Publication date: April 15th 2021<br />Genres: Adult, Contemporary, Romance</p><blockquote><p><b>A single moment of human brutality marks the difference between heaven and hell. It’s a rapid free fall from paradise and the drop is catastrophic.<br />
</b> <br />
Back then, we were just a couple of dirt poor teenagers who had nothing except for our friendship. I wanted it to be more and one night I made my move. Everything was perfect then, but perfection is fleeting. For one brief shining moment, everything was beautiful, but an inconceivable nightmare sent us straight to hell…to depths from which we could never return.<br />
<br />
I left our hometown—a place she once called paradise—to flee the aftermath of that brutal event that broke us so completely. I left her behind to pick up the broken pieces of her soul that had shattered irreparably. And now, I’m going back to face the wreckage that I thought I’d put behind me—my father’s gruesome legacy, the trauma of our past, and the girl who survived it all without me by her side.<br />
<br />
She hates me now for leaving her behind and I don’t blame her.<br />
I don’t blame her, but I want her.<br />
I want her, even though I know I should stay away from her.<br />
<br />
<b>I could be dangerous.<br />
<i>I am my father’s son, after all.</i></b><i><br />
</i> <br />
<i>Content Warning: This book contains brief scenes of violence and is premised around a theme of trauma and healing.</i></p>

<p>Author Bio:</p>
<p>Brynn Ford is an independent author of romance in all of its beautiful and sensually taboo forms. She is a lover of the dark, twisted, and playful and strives to bring the unmentionable aspects of passionate romance into her stories.</p>
<p>Brynn resides in the Midwest with her husband and sons, whom she expects will someday be embarrassed by their mom's books. When she isn't obsessively writing, you may find her binge watching favorite shows while eating far too much junk food or fanatically reading, always seeking to lose herself in the emotional roller coaster of a damn good story.</p>
<p>She is quite the idealist, despite her fascination with the wicked and warped aspects of humanity. Some of her stories may run out of words before a happily ever after, but she's a firm believer that her characters continue to live on outside the pages in the minds of her readers. Stories don't end just because there aren't anymore pages to turn.</p>

<p><strong>Absolute Silence</strong><br /><strong>Jill Ramsower</strong><br />(The Five Families, #5)<br />Publication date: March 10th 2021<br />Genres: Adult, Contemporary, Romance</p><blockquote><p>The Lion’s Den club was better than I ever imagined and my worst nightmares, all combined.</p>
<p>I thought I was going to explore my darkest fantasies.<br />
Gain a better understanding of myself and discover what I’d been missing in life.</p>
<p>Instead, I made a deal with the devil.</p>
<p>I had hoped I wouldn’t see anyone I knew at the club.<br />
Coming face-to-face with Filip De Luca was a worst-case scenario.</p>
<p>Filip was effortless power seething beneath a playboy exterior.<br />
A host of sharp edges disguised behind a cavalier grin.<br />
Inescapably alluring and devastatingly dangerous. </p>
<p>He promised he wouldn’t tell my father about seeing me at the club.<br />
I had his blessing to dip my toes into the dark waters of deviancy. </p>
<p>The catch?<br />
Filip would guide me on this journey.<br />
He would control every aspect of my exploration.<br />
Set every boundary and command my obedience to his rules.</p>
<p>I thought I could live with his terms.<br />
Gain the experience I wanted from a partner I could trust.</p>
<p>What a naïve fool I’d been to think our bargain could ever be so simple.</p>
<p>**<i>Absolute Silence</i> is the fifth book in <i>The Five Families</i> series but can be read as a standalone novel. This book is a mafia romance containing adult themes and may not be suitable for sensitive readers.</p>

<p style="text-align: center;"><strong>EXCERPT:</strong></p>
<p>“We need to talk. Privately,” I told him.</p>
<p>He nodded and motioned to the elevator. When his hand grazed my lower back, I stiffened. His touch was too seductive to be allowed. Not when I had more pressing matters to delve into. I would not allow lust to break down my resolve. Nothing would come between me and what I had to say.</p>
<p>I charged past the main room, not taking notice of the activities within. I had one purpose, one directive, and I wasn’t interested in distractions. When the door to his room closed behind us, a swell of words and emotions wedged a knot in my throat. I wasn’t the crying type. I couldn’t remember the last time I’d shed a tear, yet my nose began to sting with the telltale signs.</p>
<p>I took a deep, steadying breath before meeting Filip’s wary gaze. “How <em>dare</em> you blacklist me from another club.” My words were unsteady but still laced with venom. “You had no right.”</p>
<p>His eyes narrowed to angry slits. “You went to another club without even trying to talk through this with me first?”</p>
<p>“I don’t owe you <em>anything</em>. If I want to join another club, that’s <em>my</em> choice. <em>My</em> life.” I jabbed a finger at my chest, my voice growing stronger.</p>
<p>“I was trying to keep you safe, Camilla.”</p>
<p>“You were trying to control me!” I shouted back.</p>
<p>Filip charged, pinning me against the wall. His shallow breaths came unevenly through parted lips. The jagged flint in his eyes sparked as his gaze bore relentlessly deep into my soul. “I’ve always been perfectly honest with you about my need for control. I never pretended to be a saint, and I certainly didn’t give you the impression I was some kind of fucking Boy Scout. I do whatever is needed to protect what I value. My family. My home. <em>You</em>. Not to mention the fact that we made an agreement, and under the terms of our agreement, every inch of this body is <em>mine</em>. I’m not letting another man anywhere near you.”</p>
<p>“You don’t <em>own</em> me,” I hissed back, shoving my hands hard against his chest.</p>
<p>Filip clamped his hands around my wrists and subdued my assault with ease. “No, I don’t own you, but I do have a responsibility to protect you. You won’t always like my methods, but at least I know I’ve done my job.”</p>
<p>“It was a simple arrangement! It wasn’t like we signed in blood or something, which was evident since you’ve changed the terms. And besides, it sounds like this is more about you than me. It’s your duty that’s important to you, your ability to control those around you, and not my actual safety that’s so critical.”</p>
<p>His nostrils flared, and I got the sense I’d struck a nerve.</p>
<p>He took in three even breaths before delivering a devastating defense. “My mother was killed when I was only five,” he deadpanned in a hollow voice. “I spent the next half a decade being tossed from one relative to the next with zero stability in my life or control over what happened to me. I don’t just have a need for control; I can’t survive without it. When I feel the things that mean the most to me slipping from my control, I become crazed, and I can’t think straight. You, more than anything else, cause me to lose my fucking mind.”<br />
