Many sins lay in the creases of my hands. Darkness and corruption are part of my life.
After hints from my brother that all is not right with the family business, I leave Mexico and return to Vegas. I have a responsibility to protect what’s ours, no matter the price or who gets in the way. Those who don’t fall in line will soon realize why I’m called The Vegas Reaper.
I demand order and obedience, so when I come head-to-head with our beautiful new hire, I’m faced with an unusual challenge, one that infuriates yet intrigues me.
When my hotel goes up in flames, my anger flares along with it. I pull on my cut and join The Devils Reach. The desert ride pays off, but there’s more at play here than I ever imagined, and I’m caught in a chess game of power from an unseen force. Deception, secrets, and chaos threaten my world. Could our new hire hold the key to it all?
___________
Warning: This story is meant to be read in the reading order that can be found in my Amazon bio and website. There is a heavy crossover from my Devil’s Reach Trilogy through the Quiet Mafia Series, and my Dark Water Series, where Grim is first introduced.
This is intended for 18+, violent, may contain trigger warnings, and of course…ends with a cliffhanger.
Renee’s Five Star Review
I received a copy of this book from the publisher/author to review for Stephanie’s Book Reports.
This is the first book in the Havoc of Sins series and is a heavy crossover from the Devi’s Reach Trilogy, through the Quiet Mafia Series, and the Dark Water Series. If you have read that series then you have met Grim. This book does contain trigger warnings and you need to read those before diving in.
This is the story of Grim and Kenna. He has been away for a while and is now being sucked back into the life of the family business since it is being threatened. Kenna lives in a totally different world that Grim and I loved in the beginning of the book we saw each of their worlds and how different they are. But, they quickly melded together as they both have a common enemy. I don’t really want to go into the details of the story and give something away. I feel like there is so much going on in this book that you are on your toes through the entire thing and on the edge of your seat at times. This is a book that you do not want to miss. I really loved reading this book. It was so good. Now I can’t wait to have the next book in my hands.
