Some vendettas are worth dying for. Others are worth risking everything to leave behind. Hades is a ruthless assassin with a score to settle. Nearly twenty years after taking the fall for a man he considered family, he has returned with revenge on his mind. But when that man's grown daughter, Capri, enters his life, Hades finds himself drawn to a woman who has no idea of his history or the danger surrounding him. Their attraction is as forbidden as it is consuming, and Hades must decide whether Capri is the perfect way to hurt the man who betrayed him or the one person who could make him abandon his vengeance. Ella Jade delivers a provocative, high-stakes dark romance where obsession, revenge, and dangerous desire collide.

The Vibe

Hades is a vindictive, calculating, and unapologetically dangerous assassin whose past has left him consumed by betrayal and revenge. Capri is a bold, captivating young woman whose growing fascination with an older, mysterious man draws her into a world far darker than she realizes.

Expect an intense age-gap romance with morally complicated characters, forbidden attraction, revenge-driven motives, and provocative power dynamics. This is a deliberately dark and potentially unsettling love story for readers who enjoy boundary-pushing romance and characters who operate far outside the lines of conventional morality.
