ABOUT THE BOOK: Relesase Date November 1, 2020

My Enemy murdered My wife and My Father, So I Took His Daughter

I stole the Bratva princess.
And, locked her away on my island.

An eye for an eye.
A tooth for a tooth.
Blood for blood.
Stealing Isabella is the only way to find her father.
I just wasn’t prepared for the temptation of her.
Or, the effect she’d have on my cold dead heart.
One taste I shouldn’t have had and I wanted more.
She’s my captive
My enemy’s daughter.
Being with her is unthinkable.
Yet, I want to claim her, take her, own her.
Make her mine.
The deal was a life for a life.
I’m just not sure I want to give her back when the time comes.
And definitely not when she’s carrying my baby…
I started a war when I stole her away like a thief in the night.
Now it’s time to fight the battle.

REVIEW:DARK CAPTOR is the second instalment in Faith Summers’ contemporary, adult DARK SYNDICATE erotic, dark, mafia romance series focusing on the D’Agostino brothers. This is thirty year old Tristan D’Agostino, and twenty-two year old, assistant therapist Isabella Viggo’s story line. DARK CAPTOR can be read as a stand alone without any difficulty. Any important information from the previous instalments is revealed where necessary.

NOTE: Due to the graphic nature of the story line premise, there may be triggers for more sensitive readers.

Told from dual first person perspectives (Tristan and Isabella) DARK CAPTOR follows in the aftermath of the kidnapping of twenty-two year old Isabella Viggo, the daughter of the Mortimer Viggo, an assassin with the Circle of Shadows. Six years earlier, on his wedding day Tristan’s wife Alyssa was kidnapped and killed by a member of the Circle of Shadows, and our hero has been plotting his revenge every since. Fast forward to present day wherein, Tristan and his brothers will discover that Mortimer Viggo has a daughter, the perfect fodder for war and vengeance. Enter twenty-two year old Isabella Viggo, the woman with whom Tristan will fall in love. What ensues is the kidnapping of Isabella, and building relationship between Tristan and Isabella, and the potential fall-out as Tristan’s revenge comes to fruition, and Isabella becomes collateral damage in a war between families.

DARK CAPTOR follows several paths including the abduction of Isabella Viggo; Tristan’s need for vengeance; Dominic D’Agostino’s fall from grace; and the rise and fall of both the Circle of Shadows, and the Syndicate of the Brotherhood, a Syndicate of which Massimo D’Agostino is hoping to revive.

The relationship between Tristan and Isabella is an enemies to lovers: a Stockholm –esque syndrome romance as is most of the author’s stories in this series of dark Mafia romances. Tristan is unable to keep away from our story line heroine, and as such finds himself falling for a woman who is as broken and lost as our story line hero. As their relationship continues to build, Tristan knows it is only a matter of time before he will have to let go of the woman with whom he is falling in love. The $ex scenes are intimate, erotic and intense, and not without some issues of questionable consent.

The colorful secondary and supporting characters include Tristan’s brothers Massimo and Dominic, as well as their sister of the heart Candace; Isabella’s father Mortimer, his right hand man Dimitri, and Isabella’s guard Sacha.

DARK CAPTOR is a dramatic and intense story line . The premise is edgy and dark; the romance is passionate and provocative; the characters are tragic and energetic.

ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date 14, 2020

We were destined for disaster from the second we met …

Massimo D’Agostino is the heir to his father’s empire.
Don’t be fooled by his handsome face, or that piercing blue gaze.
He’s no prince charming.
He’s dangerous and feared, possessive and fierce.

Our first meeting began with a contract that forced me to marry him and sign my life away.
I was a debt repayment and a pawn in his game to exact revenge against my father.
The only way out is death.

I belong to him now.
Me, the Balesteri Mafia Princess.
Pure and untouched…
Owned by the devil who placed me in a gilded cage.

But something unexpected happened the moment our paths collided.
It made me want more of what he had to offer every time I lay beneath him.

Then the past came knocking at the door and dark secrets scattered at my feet.
Suddenly I don’t know truth from lies.
Or, who the monster in this story is.
I thought it was my husband.
Now I’m not so sure…

••••••••

REVIEW:RUTHLESS PRINCE is the first instalment in Faith Summers’ contemporary, adult DARK SYNDICATE dark, erotic, Mafia romance series. This is twenty-nine year old, heir to the D’Agostino empire Massimo D’Agostino and nineteen year old, Mafia princess Emelia Balesteri’s story line.

WARNING: RUTHLESS PRINCE contains mature content, graphic violence, and triggers for more sensitive readers.

Told from dual first person perspectives (Massimo and Emelia) RUTHLESS PRINCE follows in the aftermath of the D’Agostino family losing everything. Twelve years earlier the D’Agostino family lost their empire, their seat on the Syndicate, and the family matriarch to an apparent suicide, all with the aid of syndicate member and competing Mafia head Riccardo Balesteri. Fast forward to present day wherein, a now twenty-nine year old Massimo D’Agostino, the new head of the D’Agostino empire, seeks retribution for sins of the past starting with Riccardo’s nineteen year old daughter Emelia Balesteri as payment for a debt owed. Hours before her trip to Italy to study art, nineteen year old Emelia Balesteri would become the prisoner and reluctant fiancée of Massimo D’Agostino, the man she now blames for destroying her life. As Massimo and the D’Agostino family continue to tear apart the Balesteri empire, Riccardo Balesteri sets a plan into motion to destroy them all, in an effort take back everything and more.

Massimo D’Agostino vowed vengeance the day Riccardo Balesteri held a gun to Massimo’s then twelve year old head at his beloved mother’s funeral. Having humiliated Massimo’s father, and sent the family away with nothing but the clothes on their back, Riccardo slowly found himself deep in debt, owing his life and his business to the D’Agostino family. Handing over his daughter Emelia as partial payment for a debt owed, Emelia would quickly learn that all was not well in her father’s life. Oblivious to her father’s sins and his connection to the D’Agostino family, Emelia would become fodder, the spoils of war meant to be part of a bigger plan.

The relationship between Emelia and Massimo begins as an enemies to lovers, arranged Mafia marriage wherein Emelia continues to be a princess in a gilded cage. From the outset Massimo meant to break his beautiful Mafia princess but would soon discover that Emelia was the balm to his shattered heart. The $ex scenes are aggressive, intense and passionate but I struggled with the use of a certain four-letter word.

There is a large ensemble cast of secondary and supporting characters including Massimo’s brothers Dominic, Andreas and Tristan, as well as their father Giacomo D’Agostino; Riccardo Balesteri; Bratva assassin Vlad Kuznetsov; Emelia’s best friend Jacob, housekeeper Priscilla, Candace, and Massimo’s ex Gabriella. Not everyone will survive to see another day.

RUTHLESS PRINCE is a story of family, blood, honor and death; a story of betrayal and vengeance; retribution and retaliation; deception, secrets and lies, power and control. The premise is gritty and dark; the characters are edgy and tragic; the romance is dramatic and provocative. The world building set the stage for the upcoming war as Massimo sets out to reform the Syndicate in the face of a new enemy known as the Circle of Shadows.

“You can’t have me,” I cry.
“The contract we signed earlier says different, Princess.” He smiles. “We will be married in one month’s time and that is all you need to know.”
“There must be some other way my father can pay you back. Let me go.”
“No. I’m the one the debt is owed. I choose how I want to be paid.”
“There must be some other way.”
“I’m sure there is, except I’ve done exactly what I wanted to do,” he answers.
My heart squeezes. This is the man I’m supposed to marry. While he looks like a fairytale prince, he’s not.
“It’s wrong. You must know that.”
“Stop it,” he orders. His smile fades. That cool, calm demeanor returns, and I realize then that this is his dangerous side. “Stop trying to prey on my good side. I don’t have one.”
“Don’t you have a heart?” I make one final attempt to reach whatever I see in him that might resemble something human.
“No.” He smirks, and my soul quivers.
This is crazy.
There’s only one thing I can do.
Escape…

Love is a weakness for a man like me…

Two years ago my enemies murdered my wife.
They took away the mother of my newborn son.
That’s how I became the beast…
A merciless, heartless, soulless creature.

That’s why I made the deal with Ava:
Take her to repay her father’s debt…

I couldn’t resist.
Not when I saw she feared me as much as she wanted me.
I wanted the beauty, a woman nearly half my age.
I wanted to own her and possess her.
Then I wanted more.
More than her obedience and submission.
I wanted her body, heart, mind and soul.

I never knew I was signing my death warrant when our paths collided.
I never knew who she truly was: A Bratva princess who’s supposed to be a ghost.
Her dark secrets unearth old enemies who want her dead.

I’m Vincent Giordano, underboss to the Giordano family .
I should know better than to start a war.
I should know better than to let love into my cold heart.
This isn’t a fairytale.
When she kisses me I won’t turn into a prince.
I’ll still be the beast.
Yet, I can’t let them take her.
I just don’t know what it will cost me this time.

REVIEW: TEMPT ME is the fourth instalment in Faith Summers (aka Khardine Gray) contemporary, adult DARK ODYSSEY erotic, mafia, dark romance series focusing on the Giordano family who own and operate the exclusive Dark Odyssey Sex Club, and the reigning family in the Chicago mob. This is the new boss of the Chicago and the Italia Giordanos, and single father Vincent Giordano, and journalist Ava Knight’s story line. TEMPT ME can be read as a stand alone without any difficulty. Any important information from the previous story lines is revealed where necessary.

NOTE: Due to the graphic nature of the story line content, there may be some triggers for more sensitive readers.

Told from dual first person perspectives (Ava and Vincent) TEMPT ME follows several converging paths including two million dollars in missing money, and a potential partnership with the Russian Bratva. When her father was discovered to have stolen two million dollars from the Giordano family, Ava Giordano offers up herself as payment for her father’s sins but Ava’s naïvete found our heroine unaware that she would become the personal possession of Vincent Giordano, to do with as he pleases. From a sexual plaything to the woman with whom he would fall in love, Vincent will discover that there is much more to Ava than he could have ever imagined. As the Russian Bratva continues to seek a partnership with the Giordano family, a background search uncovers the truth, and the danger that awaits for everyone involved. What ensues is the building romance and relationship between Ava and Vincent, and the potential fall-out as Ava’s past comes seeking revenge, and Vincent believes himself unworthy of his own happily ever after.

Two years earlier Vincent’s wife Sorcha was killed in a war between competing mob families. Unable to forgive himself for the loss of his wife, Vincent’s grief is palpable and painful. Meeting Ava Knight give Vincent a second chance at happiness and love but threats to Ava’s safety force Vincent to push away the woman with whom he had fallen in love. The $ex scenes are passionate and erotic.

There is a large ensemble cast of colorful secondary and supporting characters including Vincent’s brothers: Nick (Tease Me #1), Gabe (Taunt Me #2), Salvatore (Thrill Me #3), parents Julian and Angela Giordano; their cousins Christian and Georgiou; Vincent’s son Timothy and her nursemaid Marguerite; Ava’s father Mark; as well as several members of the Russian Bratva.

TEMPT ME is a story of family, betrayal, relationships and love; power, control, vengeance and death. The premise is gritty and dark; the characters are animated, real, wounded and edgy; the romance is provocative and intense. TEMPT ME is a startling and intoxicating look at the one family’s struggle to remain on top.

ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date February 5, 2020

She was always mine … whether she wanted to be or not

Ten years ago I allowed another man to take her to pay her father’s debt.
Fighting for her would have started a blood war.

Now she’s back in my life and brings more than I bargained for.
She comes to me scared, helpless, and begging for my help.
Her enemies want to take her again.
Blackmail her and hold her captive.

I’ll help her…but for a price.
Thirty days. Nothing off limits
The years that have passed haven’t changed a thing.
I still want her just as much as I ever did.
I want her for myself.
On her knees before me, in my bed, everywhere.
Every day, forever.
I’ll protect her from everything.
Except me.
Beneath the mask I wear, I may be the devil she doesn’t want, but needs.

I want her to be mine.
My property, my possession.
What I never knew was our second chance may be my end.

REVIEW: TAUNT ME is the second instalment in Faith Summers (Khardine Gray) contemporary, adult Dark Billionaire Mafia Romance/Dark Odyssey erotic, mafia, romance series focusing on the Giordano brothers who own and operate the exclusive Dark Odyssey Sex Club. This is thirty-eight year old Gabriel Giordano, and twenty-eight year old Charlotte Revello’s story line. TAUNT ME can be read as a stand alone without any difficulty. Any important information from the previous instalments is revealed where necessary but I recommend reading the series in order for back story and history.

WARNING: Due to the nature of the story line premise there may be some triggers for more sensitive readers.

Told from dual first person perspectives (Gabe and Charlotte) TAUNT ME follows the rekindling romance and relationship between thirty-eight year old Gabriel Giordano, and twenty-eight year old Charlotte Revello. Ten years earlier Charlotte Revello was caught in a mob war not of her making-payment for sins of the father, Charlotte found herself facing ten years of sexual servitude in Sicily, Italy for a man her father had long angered beyond our heroine’s comprehension but Charlotte left behind the man whom she loved, a man who would never stopped loving our story line heroine. Fast forward to present day wherein another mob battle for control finds Charlotte believing she is a free woman, when she returns to the States in an effort to start anew. Enter Gabriel Giordano, the man who has never stopped loving Charlotte, but a man who is now the target of the Italian mob. What ensues is the rebuilding romance and relationship between Charlotte and Gabe, and the potential fall-out as Charlotte fears for Gabriel’s life and offers herself up, as payment, again.

Gabriel Giordano will never forget Charlotte Revello but all attempts at a rescue were met with numerous killings, tortures and abuse. Ten years would pass wherein Gabe finds himself at a crossroads in both his personal and professional world until the moment Charlotte enters back into his life. Charlotte Revello endured years of humiliation and abuse, and with the death of her original abductor, Charlotte finds herself the target of a psychotic mind. Fleeing to America, Charlotte thought she could get her life in order but quickly discovers that the darkness and danger have followed her home.

The relationship between Gabe and Charlotte is one of second chances; a rekindling romance between two people torn apart by the sins of the father, and the ongoing war for power and control. Charlotte struggles with the darkness of her past but Gabriel is determined to save Charlotte from the demons. The $ex scenes are intimate, erotic and intense but I struggled with the use of a certain four-letter word when used in a romantic situation.

There is a large ensemble cast of colorful secondary and supporting characters including Gabe’s brother Nikolai and Vincent, as well as their cousins Christian and Georgiou; Charlotte’s parents and her sister Cordelia,. The requisite evil has many faces including Antonio DeLuca, and Tobias Antonella.

TAUNT ME is a story of family, betrayal, power and revenge. The premise is dark and gritty; the romance is provocative; the characters are dangerous, broken, spirited and flawed. My only concern was the number of times stupid choices meant stupid results –for a crime organization, intelligence and common sense were not at the top of their list of priorities.

My enemies want her.

I have to become both to save her.
Even if it costs me everything.

••••••••••

REVIEW: THRILL ME is the third instalment in Faith Summers’ (Khardine Gray) contemporary, adult Dark Odyssey erotic, mafia romance series focusing on the Giordanao brothers who own and operate the excusive Dark Odyssey Sex Club. This is thirty nine year old Salvatore Giordano, and Maria ‘Mimi’ Cipriani’s story line. THRILL ME can be read as a stand alone without any difficulty. Any important information from the previous instalments is revealed where necessary but I recommend reading the series in order for back story and history.

WARNING: Due to the nature of the story line premise there may be some triggers for more sensitive readers.

Told from dual first person perspectives (Salvatore and Mimi) THRILL ME follows several intersecting paths including the friends to lovers relationship between Salvatore Giordano, and Mimi Cipriani, and the ongoing battle between the warring Chicago Crime families. Salvatore Giordano has lusted after Mimi Cipriani for as long as he could remember but Mimi had fallen in love with Salvatore’s brother Gabe. With Gabe’s recent marriage to his long lost love Charlotte (Taunt Me #2), Salvatore jumped at the chance to make Mimi his own but Mimi struggled to more forward from the past, a past she kept close to her heart. Meanwhile, a rival Chicago Crime family has targeted the Giordano family for power and control, taking aim at everyone and anyone who got in their way. What ensues is the building romance and relationship between Mimi and Salvatore, and the fall-out as the mob war brings heart break, death, betrayal and revenge.

Overwhelming loss will, once again, begin to suffocate the Giordano family resulting in Salvatore’s ascension to capo but with his ascension comes the struggle to take down the people responsible for the threats against the Giordano family, and the direct threat against the woman he loves. Mimi Cipriani has accepted she has never been Gabriel’s love but with it came personal loss, and ongoing heart break. Falling for Salvatore Giordano was easy especially when Salvatore had fallen for her. With the hopes of opening her own restaurant, Mimi finds herself caught between family and love but soon discovers that family is not always those bonded by blood.

The relationship between Mimi and Salvatore is a friends to lovers romance wherein Salvatore is hoping to make Mimi his own but Mimi continues to struggle with issues of trust believing Salvatore could break her heart, a break from which she may never return. The $ex scenes are intimate, erotic and intense.

Once again, there is a large ensemble cast of colorful secondary and supporting characters including Salvatore’s brothers: Vincent and his wife Sorcha: Nick and Mia (Tease Me #1) ; Gabe and Charlotte (Taunt Me #2); parents Julian and Angela Giordano; their cousins Christian and Georgiou; and Mimi’s father. The requisite evil has many faces including Marc , Lawrence and Sergio Fontaine.

THRILL ME is a story of family, blood, power and control; murder and revenge; betrayal, secrets and lies. The fast paced premise is engaging, dark and dramatic; the characters are energetic and emotional; the romance is edgy and tender. Here’s hoping the author has plans for Vincent, Christian and Georgiou.

An angel like her… and a devil like me.

Was it wrong to prey on the weak?
Especially when the weak came in the form of this beautiful angel on the doorstep of my club.
My club The Dark Odyssey.
The place where people live out their wildest fantasies.
Here, beneath the mask.
Nothing is off limits and just like Vegas, what happens here stays here.

She’s too angelic for the wild masquerade parties I hold.
She couldn’t possibly know she’s standing at the doorway to sin.

It’s clear she’s here for something else.
I smell desperation and fear…
That’s fine, I’ve already decided she’ll be mine.
I’ve found the perfect toy to play with.

I’m Nick Giordano and I always get what I want.
I want her body.
Obedience.
Submission.
Heart and soul.

I’ll claim her. I’ll break her, and possess her

She’s the perfect distraction from my enemies.
And, the darkness of my world.

REVIEW: TEASE ME is the first instalment in Faith Summers’ (aka Khardine Gray) contemporary, adult DARK ODYSSEY erotic,BDSM, mafia romance series focusing on the Giordano brothers who own and operate the exclusive Dark Odyssey Sex Club. This is thirty-four year old, Nikolai Giordano, and attorney Mia Chase’s story line.

NOTE: Due to the nature of the story line premise, there may be some triggers for more sensitive readers.

Told from dual first person perspectives (Nick and Mia ) TEASE ME follows the building relationship between thirty-four year old, Nikolai Giordano, and attorney Mia Chase. Mia Chase is desperate for money now that her troubled brother Carter has gotten himself involved with the local drug Cartel but desperation finds our heroine stepping out of her comfort zone in an effort to save the lives of the people she loves. Applying to work at the exclusive Dark Odyssey Sex Club Mia will come face to face with one of the owners, Chicago mobster Nikolai Giordano, the man who wants Mia as his very own personal waitress. Mia has not been honest with Nick Giordano regarding her need for a quick influx of cash, and the ongoing threats against her family find Mia agreeing to be anything and everything that Nikolai wants. What ensues is the highly sexual relationship between Mia and Nick, and the potential fall-out as a debt owed comes due with Mia’s life.

Meanwhile, Nikolai’s best friend Tommy lies in the hospital, after being targeted by an unknown enemy. As Nikolai and his brother’s search for the truth, rumours about Tommy’s connections begin to weigh heavily on the Giordano brothers.

Nick Giordano doesn’t do relationships but something about Mia calls to his heart. Nikolai wants Mia as his own personal ‘waitress’ but Mia finds herself wanting something more than to be used as Nikolai’s nightly sex toy. Mia is willing to go above and beyond in an effort to save her father’s life but our heroine never expected to fall in love with a man whose life revolves around the Chicago mob.

The relationship between Nick and Mia is one of immediate attraction but Mia was hired to be Nikolai’s toy. With limited sexual experience, Mia finds herself pulled into a world she knows nothing about, a world where she will become a pawn to be threatened and abused by Nikolai’s enemies. The $ex scenes are intimate, erotic, and intense.

We are introduced to Nikolai’s brothers Gabe , Vincent and Salvatore; their father ; Mia’s brother Carter, and her best friend Chloe. The requisite evil has many faces.

TEASE ME is a story of family, betrayal, power and control. The premise is dark and gritty; the romance is seductive and hot; the characters are charismatic and energetic. TEASE ME is an animated introduction to the Dark Odyssey series
