Chosen by Blood

I'm the daughter of Harrison Kingsley, Don of the Kingsley Crime Family. So, I guess that makes me a Mafia Princess, but I'm no princess at all. I'm anything but. Dad raised me alone and I've just known him as my father. But now, all that's about to change. After an incident in college, I'm back and dear-old-dad appointed me the new Underboss for the Kingsley Crime Family in this male-driven world. Many of the men don't like it, but too bad. I happen to be Harrison Kingsley's only child and the sole heir to the kingdom… and I'm as ruthless as they come. Many doubt I can do the job. But that's their mistake. Now, I have to prove myself while navigating this world and learning the ropes. Although I knew many aspects of our world before, it wasn't nearly everything. Eli Gold is the son of Bradley Gold, head of the Gold Crime Family. He's second in line to his throne… and he's also my lover. With our commitments deeply rooted in our families, we can't be together… but we are. Even though we try to keep our relationship a secret, I'm sure everyone knows. But he's the only one I trust in this world where few can be trusted, so I refuse to give him up. After an attempt on my life, I discover that someone is out to take me down before I can get started. But what they don't know is that I'm my father's daughter and as ruthless as they come… but they're about to find out. Soon, they will come to fear and respect the name Adrienne Kingsley. For I don't want to be the next Queen of the Kingdom. I want to be King. ****Note: All books in the Mafia Ties Dark Romance Series end in cliffhangers until the final book, Blood & Lies, Book 6 in the Series.
