In the savage streets of Miami, where loyalty is life and betrayal is paid in blood, Romel "Trouble" Volkov runs the city as the ruthless head of a powerful mafia family.
Hardened by a past that taught him emotions equal weakness, he built an empire on fear and control. His heart? Locked away behind ice-cold walls. His life? Tied to an arranged marriage with a woman he doesn't love, all to keep the family's power intact. Then comes Jermany. Bold. Unapologetic. A free spirit with fire in her soul and a softness Trouble never knew he craved. She doesn't just see him, she feels him. The man beneath the scars. The boy who learned to survive a merciless world. The broken king who deserves more than just his cold throne. As they form an undeniable bond, Trouble is confronted with the haunting memories of his past and the realization that he is worthy of the one thing he had been running from forever: Love. But loving Jermany means breaking every rule he's lived by. And in his world, breaking rules can get you killed. As old enemies circle and family loyalty demands his soul, Trouble must decide: will he risk it all for a woman who makes him feel alive, or stay chained to a life where love is the ultimate weakness? Some promises demand death before dishonor. But Trouble's heart? It might have other plans.
