"...a heat began coursing through her. Its warmth enveloped her being, sending a rush of blood through every vein in her body as it settled between her palms, pulsating in fiery intensity. A wicked smile spread across her lips. Finally, debts have come due. It paid to be a Gray."
A powerful mafia dynasty. Ancient magic. A fiery female lead.
The gift of fire burns within Celia Gray, a feisty young woman who considers herself ahead of her time. She was born to be in the family business-an ancient mafia dynasty-if only her father would allow it. Finding herself caught between the life society demands of a woman and the life she craves, Celia is fighting the losing battle for the right to choose her own destiny.
Harold Gray is the boss of the Gray family and the head of the five "gifted" families of Fauland. A powerful man with a commanding presence, he believes his daughters would be better off married and living a comfortable life in the country, away from the dealings of the business. But Celia, not one to give up without a fight, has other ideas.
To claim her rightful place beside her father and show him how capable she really is, she concocts a scheme to take on a local gangster who duped him. When plans go awry and lives are lost, Celia must confront how far she's willing to go to get what she wants.
