BLURB

My rivals are Dons; I am a King.

Three brides have been chosen for my pleasure and displeasure. One of them will become a King’s consort; the others will be discarded.

Until my decision is made, I get to feast on them all.

They are mine.

After the demise of my uncle, the O’Sullivan family has yet to choose the new Don. With two brothers and a vengeful, unhinged cousin also vying for the position, tension is rising in an already dangerous business.

Especially since no one knows that I’m responsible for my uncle’s disappearance.

Enter the Hands of Kings, a global cult with the ability to replace CEOs, Presidents, and Popes. And their leader, Victor, has his eye on me.

Few men were made to be Kings and Victor has plans for me, plans that do not require my approval.

But an unseen enemy is hiding and they know my secrets. They are manipulating the people around me with the intention of taking my crown.

A King is not so easily dethroned, especially when threats are made toward me and mine.

No one shall have my brides.

When Kings Rise is a dark mafia romance, intensified by the presence of a cult, with mature themes, mature language, and very mature steam.

EXCERPT

Everything in me stills as Jay walks towards me, his face tightening the closer he gets. It transforms him from someone I used to know with dimples and light eyes, to an angry God.

“Hi.” I sound so breathless as he stops in front of me.

He glares at me and rubs his jaw before speaking. “The three days you were missing, where were you?”

He’s angry.

My throat aches again; my heart beats rapidly as I stare up into the dark abyss that wants to consume me. I need to speak, but for the first time with Jared, the words are lodged in my throat.

His large hand touches my jawline, and my eyes flick up at him. His eyes have darkened even further, and I’m not sure what has prompted him to touch me. He looks revolted by the action, yet he hasn’t let me go. When we were younger, I knew exactly what he was thinking, but right now, the unknown is scaring me.

His hand travels down to my neck, his thumb flicking back and forth, his touch burns into me. I swallow.

“Where were you…?” His words trail off as he looks at me with haunted eyes.

EXCERPT

My hands demand I hurt her. I push harder on her small shoulders, and the foolish love-sick boy in me screams to take my hands off what is his. What he has searched for for years, only each time to come up emptier and a little angrier than the last time. Yet, here she is. Staring up at me with wide blue eyes. Her scent seems to envelop me until I dig a little deeper into her shoulders.

I could snap her so easily.

I want to. She shouldn’t be here.

“What the fuck do you want?” I bark and lean in, inhaling her aromatic lavender scent.

Layla.

Anger bubbles through me, and my back arches.

“You’re the one who dragged me over here.” Her voice is stronger, her gaze more defiant than she had displayed earlier in the gym. She looked like a victim. I remember how good she was at playing the victim.

I grin and take some of the pressure off her shoulders but don’t remove my hands completely. “Because you were staring at me like some lovesick puppy.” Each word I say with a mocking tone.

Her lip trembles and my gaze lingers on her mouth. She’s still Layla, just older. More womanly. That fact isn’t lost on me with all the curves she displayed at gym class. She isn’t someone who fades into the background. She always stood out even when she didn’t want to. I don’t need her to be here. I don’t need the distraction.

“I thought you were someone else, but I was wrong.”

I release her, and she reaches up and rubs her shoulders. I don’t step back. I don’t want to walk away from her. The pull that was always there hasn’t eased with time. If anything, it seems stronger.

I hate her.

“Let’s hope your drooling over me ends.” I fold my arms across my chest. I know my size will intimidate her. I battle with the need to protect her. It’s all I knew. All I cared about. She was the reason I got up, the reason I lived. The reason I fought to survive. Until she left, not giving a fucking care in the world about me.

“I thought you were someone else.” Pain drags down her lips.

Fuck her.

“I don’t want your sob story.” I lean in close to her and dip my head so that she can hear me very clearly. “Stay out of my way, Layla, or I’ll make sure you regret ever crossing my path.” Her chest rises and falls faster. My words fully sink in; I’ve made my point. Her swan-like neck draws my hand to it. She inhales sharply as I tighten my fingers around her fragile throat. Her pale skin is soft. I can imagine pressing kisses along the flesh. I tighten my fingers further, trying to banish the thought.

She pulls away. “Get your hands off me.” Her hysteria pierces my anger. The protective boy in me has me removing my hand, and yet I can’t step away from her.

Release Blitz - Mafia Boss by Vi Carter

Title: Mafia Boss

Series: Young Irish Rebels #4

Author: Vi Carter

Genre: Dark Irish Mafia Romance

Release Date: November 18, 2021

BLURB

Dana

My family are Mafia

A truth I still can't accept.

A secret I want no part in, one that could get me killed.

My father placed me in Cillian's hands for protection, or so I'm told.

But his protection feels like prison bars, and I refuse to be his captive.

My Life is unraveling.

My father's words feel like lies.

And the longer I stay hidden with my bodyguard, the more I see the truth.

Cillian is everything I shouldn't want, a threat no one saw coming.

I'm in the hands of my father's enemy, hands that make me ache.

Now I have a choice to make.

A deadly choice.

Cillian

She's the daughter of Liam O'Reagan: the sheltered Princess of the Irish Mafia.

When her life is put in danger, I make a deal with the devil.

He offers something I want, and I vow to keep his daughter safe.

Safe from the men who would use her to wound her father.

Safe from the secrets she keeps trying to uncover.

Safe from everything--including me.

Until she runs and I have to chase her.

The thrill of the hunt mixed with the scent of her fear and panic is a deadly combination.

I couldn't resist one small taste.

The King of the Irish Mafia might take my head for touching his daughter, but not before I have his.

IT'S TIME FOR THE KING TO FALL!

EXCERPT

My father had a darkness in him, so did his, and now it flows richly in my veins. Controlling the darkness was an art form that I didn’t feel I’d mastered well.

I start the car and drive away. The last time I lost control of my darkness, I woke up wondering who I was and how deep my depravity really ran.

EXCERPT

“I want to speak to my father.” The words hitch, and I haven’t made this demand yet. Maybe it was fear; maybe it was hope. A hope that my father doesn’t know that I am here and fear that he does.

I get a reaction out of Cillian. It’s subtle, but his hard jaw gets a little harder like he’s been carved from granite. He’s all angles and emptiness.

Cold as stone.

He moves through the living room, and when he passes me, something in my chest tightens. It’s been days, and I’ve had enough of his silence.

“I’m speaking to you. You will answer me.” My false bravado has Cillian turning to me. A half smile doesn’t soften his features. No, it hardens them. The smile is fake, controlled, and a clear warning not to proceed any further.

“Will I now?” He tilts his head slightly like he’s given me enough of his attention, and I see in how his shoulders shift that he’s ready to walk away from me again.
