Wicked Mafia Devil
(2026)(The third book in the Red Letter Syndicate series)
A novel by Penelope Wylde
On Friday, I sent my nudes to the wrong number.
Monday, I found out that number belongs to my new boss and number 2 in the Red Letter Syndicate who is also the sunshine to my grump.
How can I not be a grump? I’ve handed a ruthless man leverage over me and my family and he’s all sunshine about it.
Luca Valentina is a mafia enforcer with a talent for making money, erasing enemies, and turning mistakes into leverage.
And my mistake is about to cost my family everything.
I’m the daughter of a powerful real estate mogul with mafia ties, and in my world, mistakes don’t get forgiven, they get punished. One false move and I’ll bring my father’s wrath down on my own head.
Trust me, no one survives that unscathed.
But when Luca discovers who I am, the mafia billionaire doesn’t delete my photos.
Oh, no. My merciless new boss decides to keep every last naughty pose locked on his phone.
Desperate, I make a Red Letter wish for his silence, and he agrees… only I didn’t expect the price to be my body, my obedience, and my signature on a marriage certificate.
Luca is six feet of tattooed muscle, silent, lethal and utterly gorgeous.
Every callused, forbidden touch brands me as his. Every dark look tightens the leash I didn'''t know I wanted.
I tell myself I’m only doing this to save my reputation, and to keep a job to pay the bills.
But the truth is darker.
I want him.
And Luca always collects what he claims.
I made one mistake and then a terrible Red Letter wish. Now the price is an heir for my mafia boss.
Wicked Mafia Devil is an age gap office romance that features a reverse grumpy sunshine romance, blackmail from a billionaire, witty banter, a possessive villainous billionaire hero, and a spicy happily-ever-after. Every book ends with a guaranteed happily ever after and has no cliffhanger for that couple. Every book in this series is a full-length standalone.
About Penelope's new mafia and billionaire romantic suspense series:
They say if you’re desperate enough, you’ll believe in anything.
Even the rumor about a Red Letter Syndicate that grants the most wicked of wishes.
All you have to do is seal your darkest secret in a red envelope and drop it in the box and pray the right villain answers.
The catch is the price. No one knows the cost of a wish, but if you’re desperate enough for the Red Letter Syndicate, are you really worried about the price?
You should be. These aren’t the men who grant happy endings. They’re kings and killers, fixers and thieves. They are the monsters you don’t want to need who rule the underworld.
And they have a reputation for taking whatever they want and the word along the dark veins of the city is all six mafia men are out for an heir.
Six desperate wishes.
Six ruthless anti-heroes.
Six dark obsessions that start with a deal and end with forever.
Careful what you wish for, ladies…the Red Letter Syndicate just might grant it.
