Soft Kill: A Dark Mafia Romance (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798276638805)

A journalist who exposes monsters.
The heir to a criminal empire.
A story that was always going to end in blood.

Photojournalist James Keith has spent her career documenting war, corruption, and the brutal machinery of human suffering. She knows how dangerous men operate. She knows how power protects itself.

Then she meets Orfeo De Santis.

Brilliant. Cultured. Beautiful in the way disasters are beautiful.

The son of one of the most powerful mafia dynasties in the world.

What begins as an interview becomes an obsession neither of them can survive untouched. Because Orfeo is not merely dangerous-he was raised inside a system where love is weakness, loyalty is inherited, and violence is treated like business.

And James is the first thing that has ever made him want something more than power.

As James uncovers a global trafficking network linking fashion, organized crime, and political corruption, the line between journalist and participant begins to collapse. Every story she publishes brings her closer to the truth.

And closer to becoming a target.

Now a criminal empire is watching her.
The Russians want her silenced.
And Orfeo must decide whether to protect the dynasty that created him... or destroy it to save the woman he loves.

Soft Kill is a dark, psychologically intense romantic suspense novel about obsession, inherited violence, investigative journalism, and the terrifying cost of telling the truth.
