The Cavallo Brothers

Two years ago, I weakened and kissed her—the woman who demanded my attention, my obsession, and everything in between. Then my brother walked in with a brutal reminder of why I never should’ve succumbed.

Cutting her loose wasn’t enough. I had to treat her like my enemy.

I should’ve anticipated the rejection bruising her pride. But threatening my company? My family?

She has no idea what she’s done, and I can’t let the transgression go unpunished.

She calls it intimidation. Manipulation. Kidnapping.

To me, it’s a necessary course correction.

I’m more than the polished New York businessman she thinks I am. Hidden beneath the tailored suits and effortless boardroom control is a violent malevolence written into my DNA—the traits of an unwanted legacy from the lethal underworld I’ve distanced myself from since childhood.

And while some heirs acquire wealth and power, I’ve inherited something far more dangerous.

The ability to ruin Isla Cross.

And everything she cares about.

*** Author Note: Heir of Ruin is an anti-hero romance featuring the powerful, morally grey Raffael Cavallo, a heroine caught in a legacy she never consented to, and a relationship built on destruction, obsession, and forced proximity. Expect captive undertones, touch-her-and-die energy, high-stakes power imbalance, and a romance that blurs the line between protection and possession.
