Beautifully Brutal

Description

signed/personalized trade paperback

Love isn’t always beautiful, sometimes it’s beautifully brutal.

If you think you know him… You’re wrong.
If you think you know his family… Wrong again.
If you think you know his story… You don’t.

If you did, you’d likely wonder how the hell a man like Maximillian Adorite managed to make it to this point in his life. At twenty-nine, he’s experienced more than most people could only ever imagine, all thanks to his family. Organized crime they call it. Mafia.

No matter how they spin it, it comes down to one thing. Max gets what he wants. Except for the one thing he wants most…

Her name is Courtney Kogan.

And now that he’s had a taste of her, Max knows he will never be able to let her go.

📚 About the Series

Sniper 1 Security + Southern Boy Mafia + Devil's Playground = Heroes & Havoc

Sniper 1 Security was my first attempt at romantic suspense. When I started this series, I intended for it to track the Kogans and the Trexlers, but it crossed right over into the Adorites, the mafia family from Southern Boy Mafia. In the series, you’ll meet the three families that manage to work together, despite which side of the law they are on.

The Southern Boy Mafia came to be after I started writing the Sniper 1 Security series. I realized Courtney Kogan was in love with the ultimate bad boy. Enter Maximilian Adorite. Over the years, Max has played a vital role in many of my series, utilized because of his status as a powerful mafia boss.

Devil’s Playground

So, I went through a disturbing case of writer’s block back in April (2015). I was distraught, unable to even come up with anything to write. My characters had gone completely dark. So, when I talked to my friends and family, they suggested I write anything. It didn’t need to be from a current series. It was a chance to do something completely new.

Well, Devil’s Playground isn’t completely new because it’s a spin-off from the Southern Boy Mafia series, though it can be read on its own.

2026 update: the series is getting a makeover and the covers will be updated with the next release.
