I’ve made a name for myself on destruction and favor. It has served me well and kept the wolves at bay, the ones who howl at the edges of my world hoping for the smell of blood in the air. I won’t give them the satisfaction; I’ve worked too hard to be on top.
The only woman I care about is my sister, Saoirse. Every other woman is a momentary distraction in my bed. Until I meet Roisin. She comes into my life like a breeze rolling over the Irish countryside and I can’t deny how much I want her. I will make her mine, even though my gut is burning with the knowledge that something isn’t quite right.
It doesn’t take much to unravel her secrets, which Roisin would rather keep hidden in the darkness. When her lies and manipulations come crashing down around us, I have a choice to make. Will I become her savior? Or will her betrayal become our ruin?
ROISIN
I’ve always been the odd one out in my family and they’ve conditioned me to crave their acceptance and affection. It’s been the gold they’ve dangled in front of me but have never given freely. It’s toxic and I’m trapped in a cycle I know is going to break my heart and my soul.
When my family puts me in a position I’ve never wanted, I don’t see a way out of it. I go into the lion’s den, hoping my purpose stays in the shadows. Getting a job at Declan McCarthy’s pub is easy. Finding out about the secrets the McCarthy mob holds close? Not so much.
Everything changes when I come face to face with Declan. He wants me close and the way he studies me makes me hungry for his touch just as much as I fear him finding out the truth. When he uncovers the truth, it tests where my loyalty lies—with my family or the man I wasn’t supposed to fall for but can’t resist? Will he become my savior? Or will my betrayal become our ruin?
*18+. This story has dark themes and a morally gray hero. You’ll still find an insta-love story that is spicy and isn’t necessarily simple, but with darker themes, situations, rough spicy times, and depictions of violence (not between the MMC and MFC). No cheating with a guaranteed HEA. This book is part of my McCarthy Irish Mob series and has ties to my Agosti Crime Family books but can be read as a standalone. Meet Declan McCarthy in Blossom in Shadows. This is the first book in my McCarthy Irish Mob stories.*
You’ve felt the power that the men of Dark Reign hold. Now it’s time to fall under their rule again with new men who hold their world in their hands as they find the women who make them fall to their knees.
Power comes at a cost and these men have sacrificed their souls. They know violence, death, and how to walk in the gray, but that doesn’t mean they are without weakness. The women they love are their light and they would scorch the Earth to protect them. This December meet the men who rule their empires of crime and the women who stand by them while darkness reigns.”
