He brought a bloody war to my doorstep. Now, the only way to survive is to become his wife.
Renata
Running my coastal restaurant in Trinidad takes blood, sweat, and razor-sharp focus. I don’t have time for distractions, and I definitely don't have time for the lethal Venezuelan cartel heir who just walked into my life. Renzo Cabrales is danger wrapped in a custom suit. He’s ruthless, breathtakingly gorgeous, and dragging a syndicate war right to my shores.
When I’m caught in the crossfire of his family's brutal purge, my quiet civilian life is burned to the ground. To keep me breathing, Renzo claims me as his. The catch? I have to play the part of his devoted wife. It’s a tactical maneuver, an alibi to keep the target off my back. But when the bullets fly and we are forced into hiding, the blazing, undeniable heat between us stops feeling like a lie.
Renzo
In my world, trust is a death sentence. Betrayed by my own blood, I’m hunting down the traitors in my cartel, and collateral damage is supposed to be inevitable. But Renata Achong is different. She’s fierce, brilliant, and stepped in front of a loaded gun to save us without blinking.
I should walk away and leave her out of this. Instead, I’ll burn the entire Caribbean to the ground before I let anyone touch her. Claiming her as my wife was supposed to be a temporary shield. But sharing cramped quarters, breathing her in, and witnessing her sheer defiance is driving me insane. She thinks this marriage is just a survival tactic. She doesn't realize I play for keeps.
When the cartel comes to collect, will their fake vows be enough to save them, or will the truth get them both killed? Caribbean Kingpin is a standalone, high-stakes romantic suspense filled with explosive action, intense chemistry, and a guaranteed HEA.
