As I watch them disappear inside that Hell, I call for war, forcing every powerful man and woman in the city to choose a side. Mine...or Halestrom Hale’s. Only when those I love return from that place, they bring back a look of horror. What Carven tell me sends me reeling. With our backs against the wall, an unexpected ally rears her head: Vivienne’s older sister Helene. She might be more than my way to king. But she might just give me back my family. Together, we destroy all we can. We came for vengeance...and we won’t stop.

I’ve been lied to, used, and played. The Order took something from me. My property. Vivienne. And now, she belongs to another man…Macoy Daniels.

She walks into our temple like she doesn't know she's already been claimed. Talks like she’s still allowed to have a choice. But I see through all of it. The arrangement was simple: Her body for our silence. Her obedience for our protection. But nothing about the way she kneels feels simple anymore. The borrowed clothes. The desperate eyes. The scent she wears like a ghost she never stopped loving. Camille’s scent. My sister’s shadow.

She's one defiant, forbidden, pain in my ass. One I can't touch. One I can’t train. But Vivienne is mine. Body. Soul….

Trouble. I hit it with my car… Then I carried her home. Taking care of her wounds with my own dark depravity. Her scars tell a story, burns, cuts…some old…but there are some wounds that are fresh. So fresh they tell a dangerous, intriguing tale. One I’m captivated to learn. When she opened her eyes she didn’t recoil like the others. Instead, she told me her name.

he was a liar. A deceiver. A seductress. And now Helene King is a Daughter of the Order. Under the guise she was headed for the place where Halestrom Hale held our sister she is forced into a truck. Only that wasn’t where she was headed. A new breed of evil rose. One that told us exactly what Hell waited for her. With the cold, hard bite of steel at my head, my last hope lays in the only man who can help us now.

Get ready for the epic conclusion of The Blood Ties Series. There is no place to hide now. No dark corner of this city where those who stand behind The Order can disappear. They are exposed, hunted…but they aren’t vulnerable…not yet. Protected by the most savage of us all…they bribe and scheme. But no matter how loud their threats are, they know there’s no way out of this. Because we have something they’ll never have. A reason to fight…Three of them actually. Ryth. Vivienne. And Trouble. The woman my brothers and I have fallen for.

"My princess; My Ryth. Now we're cornered by those who run the Order. And we're at their mercy. Only one man can get us out. The man who knows the truth about this place; Her father. Deals are made to free us. Only she doesn't know everything. She soon will; She'll expect my brothers to be standing outside the gates...Waiting; But I don't think they will. I'll be there to pick up the pieces. I'll make sure she's safe. Our little mouse. Our princess. Our stepsister."

My brother is bleeding. My stepsister is gone. The ones responsible called themselves family. By blood, and now by marriage. I want to destroy them for what they've done. Burn everything they have to the ground. But first I need to find her. Ryth. The pathetic little mouse that scurried into our lives and made a home. I can't forget her; can't get her out of my head. She unleashed something dangerous in me. Something that drove me to ruin her. And ruined myself in the process. She was once a game to me; she still is...only this time it's for keeps.

Familie ist alles... Ich hatte immer gewusst, dass mein Vater ein kalter, herzloser Bastard war. Aber in dem Moment, in dem er Elle Castlemaine und ihre erbärmliche Tochter zu uns nach Hause holte, kaum einen Monat nach dem Tod unserer Mutter, entfesselte er etwas Wildes in mir. Es war mir egal, dass sie ihr Zuhause verloren hatten. Es war mir egal, dass ihr Vater hinter Gittern saß. Es war mir egal, dass er den berüchtigten Stidda-Mafiaboss, Benjamin Rossi, verraten und damit ihr Leben in Gefahr gebracht hatte. Alles, was mich interessierte, war sie.
