Seductive King (en Inglés) - HL Packer

In a world where trust and loyalty are earned through blood, be careful who you make friends with.

Brent Milligan has one goal: prove he's more than just the son of a powerful mafia boss. Ruthless, ambitious, and determined to carve out his own legacy, he'll use whatever, and whoever, he must to climb the ranks and position himself as his father's inevitable successor.

Daniella Percival is supposed to be in South Beach for university. Or, at least, that's the story she tells. The truth? She's here to keep a wary eye on her grieving mother and the too-charming new boyfriend. The man who appeared suspiciously soon after her father's sudden death.

Daniella isn't convinced it was an accident, and she's willing to risk everything to find out what really happened. When she turns to Brent, the enigmatic street racer she once shared one unforgettable night with, she knows she's playing with fire.

Brent doesn't trust her motives, her timing, or her innocence. But investigating her father's death could expose dangerous connections and earn him the credibility he needs within his family. Their partnership is strictly business... until late-nights blur into stolen touches, and old chemistry reignites beneath the roar of engines and the pulse of the city.

He tells himself that she's a means to an end, a calculated risk, but Daniella was never supposed to matter, and that may be his most dangerous mistake. In South Beach, love isn't just risky. It's lethal.
