Family is everything; I always knew my father was a cold, heartless bastard. But the moment he took Elle Castlemaine and her pathetic daughter into our home, barely a month after our mom died, he unleashed something savage inside me. I didn't care they lost their home. Didn't care their father was behind bars. Didn't care he betrayed the notorious Stidda Mafia boss, Benjamin Rossi, and now their lives were in danger.

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.

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.

It was just supposed to be a good time at the Alpha ball, not the moment my life changed forever. But it was. And now danger follows me everywhere. Every Alpha there was starved for an omega. And I was about to be the main course. If it weren’t for three strangers, I might already be dead. Shadow, Aspen, and Viper saved me, risking their own lives and violating pack laws by taking me.

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.

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.

"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.

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.

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….

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.

They promised to keep me alive. They promised to keep me safe. But what happens when death is payment for a debt I never knew? Death or an eternity in servitude? The Costello’s are steeped in betrayal. Lies and corruption taint my family’s bloodline, owing debts to monsters more dangerous than the Vampires I love. Now the Inner Circle has come to collect. Only I won’t go easy.

I’m at the mercy of my enemy…too bad he has none for an omega like me. The most dangerous man in the city plans to destroy me. And he’s making good on his dark promises, ripping me from my alphas, the only place I feel I belong.

It was just supposed to be a good time at the Alpha ball, not the moment my life changed forever. But it was. And now danger follows me everywhere.

I’m barely free from my father’s deadly grasp when my alphas’ pasts rise up to threaten us all. And I’m left wondering if I even know the men I’ve fought with and for. Can I trust them? Are they really mine? I once thought I knew the answers, but now I’m not so sure. I’m really not sure of anything. Except the hard, cold, deadly truth of our situation—two mafia families have painted targets on all our backs, and they’re out for blood. And if I know the families, and I do, they’ll have that blood no matter the cost.
