RUIN ME RIGHT by Evelyn Crowe She walked into a crime boss's office to save her father. She walked out owned by someone else's rules. Mara Voss knows three things about Callum Drake: he's dangerous, he always collects, and her father owes him two million pounds. So she does the only thing left — she knocks on his door at midnight and offers everything she has. He doesn't want her money. He wants her. Not like that. Not yet. He wants her name, her father's twenty-year network of criminal contacts, her ability to walk into rooms that would stay shut for anyone else. In exchange, he'll wipe the debt — on one condition: she doesn't take a single step without him watching. What starts as a hostage arrangement becomes something neither of them planned for. Every contact on her father's list pulls back another layer of a conspiracy bigger than one debt — a stolen ledger, a missing father who isn't as gone as he seems, and a rival power player who wants what Callum wants for reasons that could destroy them both. Mara was never supposed to fall for the man collecting on her father's sins. Callum was never supposed to want anything from her except the ledger. But the closer they get to the truth, the harder it gets to remember which one of them is really in control — and whether being ruined by him is the one thing she never wants to walk back. A slow-burn mafia romance about debt, control, and the terrifying relief of being truly seen — for readers who like their heroes lethal, their heroines sharp-tongued, and their tension unbearable before it finally breaks.
