Note from author: While this is a standalone mafia romance with a guaranteed HEA, there is no doubt it will be a more satisfying read if you have already read the first two books in the Syndicate Sins series, Sins of Arrogance and Sins of Innocence. Content Warning: on the page violence, foul language, mention of attempted SA (minor to minor), and explicit spice on the page.
