SIN IN HIS SHADOW BOOK ONE

In a city where loyalty is currency and betrayal is blood-deep, Lucien Vale, the heir to a powerful mafia empire, is feared by many and loved by none. Cold, ruthless, and untouchable, his world revolves around power, secrets, and control—until Zarek Ruelle steps into his shadows. Zarek, a quiet college student with a tragic past, has spent years hiding from the pain of his family’s disappearance. When a twist of fate drags him into Lucien's dangerous world, their lives collide in ways neither of them expected. Lucien only meant to use him—just another pawn in a ruthless game of power. But Zarek isn't just another victim. He’s a spark Lucien didn’t plan for. A weakness he can’t afford. As their forbidden connection deepens, buried truths rise, enemies close in, and hearts begin to unravel. But in the world of shadows, love isn’t safe. It’s a sin. Will Lucien protect what’s his, or will his past destroy them both?
