Blood & Roses
Janelle & Mac: A BWWM Dark Mafia Romance
She rules Boston as Pakhan. He arranges flowers that make the city stop and stare.
When grief puts them in the same room, a gunshot at the grave binds their fates.
Janelle Mikalov is the Bratva boss of Boston, a queen who never begs and never bows. The day she buries her mother, she walks into an Irish florist’s shop to drown the church in roses. Mac O’Connell is steady, masculine, and loyal to his craft. He insists on handling every stem himself. At the cemetery, he delivers the flowers in person. The rival Irish syndicate takes the shot. Janelle drops him to the ground and returns fire without blinking.
The war does not end there.
Her enemies torch his shop to make him run. He refuses. Janelle brings him inside the gates of Zimnyaya Roza, the Winter Rose estate, where loyalty is tested and desire is not a weakness. In public, she wears the crown. In private, she chooses the man who will never try to take it.
The crown is hers. The risk is his. Boston may pay for it.
Perfect for readers of BWWM dark mafia romance who love a ruthless heroine, an honorable blue-collar hero, found family in a criminal empire, and high-heat scenes that matter to the story. Set in a Boston Bratva world with Irish rivals, this is an alternate universe of Vows & Vengeance. Same souls. New fates. No prior reading required.
Content notes: adult language, organized-crime violence, arson, grief. Always consensual. HEA for the couple.
