Yep, only my good deed would have bad consequences. I just graduated from NYU with a master’s in cybersecurity and coding and wanted to celebrate with my people, only to find myself snatched up off the streets of NYC and heading to God knows where. This is what I get from slipping from my security details, again. But nothing could prepare me when I reached my destination—that looked more like my final destination. Observing the watchful eyes of my captor—who has a mysterious and deadly allure that I’m drawn to—I know that I’m caught up in a world of power, money, and ever-present danger, so this is no ordinary cartel ransom. No, far from it. And this point is made even clearer once a deal is brokered between my suitor and my family. What in the hell have I gotten myself into?Krown BelafonteAfter the death of my parents and becoming a ward of the state, I’m rescued from that hellhole when my uncle finds me in a Brooklyn orphanage and then severely, savagely, and sinfully trains me to take my rightful royal place as the king of Jamaica. I was already a coldhearted, Brooklyn jawn but his training turns me into a stone-cold, mentally-ill, ruthless Brooklynaire that rules Brooklyn and Jamaica with an iron-fist, fear, wealth, and power. In my world, trust is a rare asset and loyalty can be bought and sold. With my shoddy and ominous past, no one will ever get too close to make me lose focus. Until her. The thief. And one look is all it takes to know that she is mine. When the penalty for stealing is death, how do I keep her for myself? less
