Reckless Devotion

Dakota Dove and Veronica were raised in a world of crime, and loyalty. Their fathers had been ruthless gangsters, and though they weren't related, the two step sisters were inseparable. Dakota, the sharp-eyed strategist, always had a plan. Veronica Leal, wild and unpredictable, was the enforcer--the one who got her hands dirty. Together, they ruled the streets under their family's name. But everything changed when they met Zazie, the daughter of their father's biggest rival. Zazie Skymm's family had been at war with their own for years. Deals had been broken, and yet, when Dakota and Veronica first laid eyes on Zazie at an underground club, all the hate in the world seemed to disappear. Zazie wasn't like the others. She was dangerous in her own way--confident, beautiful, with a sly smirk that could get anyone in trouble. She knew who they were, yet she didn't seem afraid. If anything, she seemed intrigued. It started as a game--secret glances at high-stakes poker tables, stolen kisses in the back of blacked-out cars, whispered promises in alleyways where no one could see. But soon, it wasn't just a game anymore. Dakota was the first to realize it: she loved Zazie. Then, she realized something else: so did Veronica. And worse? Zazie loved them both. The weight of the revelation was stifling. Loving Zazie meant betraying their own. If their father found out, if Zazie's family found out--it would mean war. A war worse than anything their families had ever seen. But love doesn't listen to rules. Together, Dakota, Veronica, andZazie fled into the unknown, chased by the ghosts of their past and the fire of their love. They weren't sure if they would survive, but one thing was certain: They belonged to each other, and that was worth any war.
