Mafia thief. Miami party-girl. Wake up, chica. The Zodiac Shadows are coming... It's hard enough trying to get your life together when you're just a broke college girl scraping by. It's even harder when you're also a skilled thief working for the Miami Mafia-and soul-wrenching shadows start invading your mind. Why am I being hunted by creatures that feed on my fear? My life was already a mess. My mafia-outcast father trained me to break into safes and pick locks before I was old enough to drive, and now, I'm using those skills to survive. But when I finally land a high-stakes job, I make one wrong move and everything spirals out of control. Beaten and humiliated, I know exactly how ruthless the mafia can be. It's stupid to cross them, and I did it-twice. The second mistake? Marrying the rising king of a rival gang. Now, I'm a pawn in a brutal game of power, a prize to be fought over. But I don't belong to anyone, and the savage zodiac fire within me refuses to be caged. Something ancient stirs in my soul, whispering that I was meant for more than this life of crime and bloodshed. As the shadows close in, threatening my sanity, I have to make a choice-escape this deadly underworld or embrace the darkness and become something far more terrifying than the monsters hunting me. A slow-burn, enemies-to-lovers, mafia romance that ignites into a fast paced steamy paranormal world of shifters, fated mates, vampires, fae, and untamed magic. If you love books like Zodiac Academy, Moon Touched (Elizabeth Briggs), and Rejected (Jaymin Eve), you'll be obsessed with this gripping prequel to the Warrior Shifter series. 18+ for intense action, violence, language, and sizzling romance.
