Madness & Mercy: An MM Dark Mafia Romance by Cheyanne Brubaker
Nico Vitale doesn’t tolerate loose ends.
Not in business. Not in blood. And never in betrayal.

As head of the Vitale crime family, he built his empire on brutal efficiency and a reputation soaked in fear. But when a high-profile hit leaves the city shaken and his name whispered in the wrong circles, Nico knows it’s not just a setup—it’s a declaration of war.

He wants answers.
He wants vengeance.
And he wants to know who’s stupid enough to come for the king.

Enter Julian ex-cop, washed-up PI, and the last man who should be anywhere near Nico Vitale. But Julian isn’t here by chance. He’s been hired by one of Nico’s oldest enemies to bring the kingpin down from the inside.
His orders are get close. Get dirt. Bury him. Burn the evidence.

But fate has other plans.

Julian didn’t expect Nico to be this ruthless.
This magnetic.
This impossible to resist.

And the deeper he goes, the more tangled the lies become...until hate starts to look a lot like hunger, and the line between duty and desire blurs into something deadly.

Their chemistry is volatile.
Their connection, inevitable.


But wrath isn’t passion…it’s poison.
And when the truth comes out, someone’s going to bleed for it.
