They are mine.
After the demise of my uncle, the O’Sullivan family has yet to choose the new Don. With two brothers and a vengeful, unhinged cousin also vying for the position, tension is rising in an already dangerous business.

Enter the Hands of Kings, a global cult with the ability to replace CEOs, Presidents, and Popes. And their leader, Victor, has his eye on me.

But an unseen enemy is hiding and they know my secrets. They are manipulating the people around me with the intention of taking my crown.
A King is not so easily dethroned, especially when threats are made toward me and mine.
No one shall have my brides.


When Kings Rise is a dark mafia romance, intensified by the presence of a cult, with mature themes, mature language, and very mature steam.

Holy Mother Of Moses this book is FREAKING EPIC. The 7th book in the Dark Sovereign series went beyond my expectations.

It was that, or marry a man my father auctioned me to when I was a little girl.
I knew my father wouldn’t make it easy, but color me surprised when he sends Caelian Del Rossa to find me.
The man is a menace.
Arrogant.
Infuriating.
Enigmatic.
He thinks he’s my knight in shining armor.
I’m convinced he’s nothing more than my father’s retriever.

Marry Caelian instead.

Loyalty runs in his veins. He’ll do what’s expected of him.

No smoldering looks or electrifying touches are going to tame me.
And definitely not that one little thing that seems to set every nerve in my body on fire.
The one thing that makes Caelian so dangerously seductive.
The hunt.

His name is Rocky Jones.
Dark, disturbingly delicious, and domineering, his piercing gray eyes tempt and disarm. But he doesn’t affect me anymore—well, maybe a little.
So what if he’s the new president of Hell’s Bells MC? He disappeared without a word, leaving me brokenhearted. I don’t care that he’s back to rule our town and exact his revenge against the notorious Knight’s Legion MC.
Even if I did want Rocky with every cell in my body, it’s far too late for us. He betrayed our love. And so have I. When the club’s vice president, Vegas, offered me protection and a job, I accepted. Now that Rocky has returned, Vegas wants me for himself.
With Vegas as his number one enemy and the Knights as his very unlikely allies, none of us know what to expect from Rocky next. Will I be the future queen of the Hell’s Bells MC? Only if he doesn’t burn it to the ground.

Samantha Fox is the heiress of Fox Sporting, my new management team. As one of the best wings in the NHL, I have never shied away from a challenge, and she is definitely a challenge. But if her company representing me doesn’t stop me from wanting her, the fact she’s engaged should, right?
But the noticeably absent sparkle from her left ring finger makes me question. I vow to myself that I’ll find out what that’s all about. And if she’s single, I plan to make her mine. Or at least, mine for the night. I just need one taste of the divine.

It doesn’t matter that I’ve just broken off my engagement to a cheating, using loser. Every time our eyes lock, I find myself captivated. But he’s not for me. No matter how many times I remind myself of this, though, it doesn’t compute. Plain and simple, I want him. And keeping my distance might prove impossible.
