Queen of Vice by Natalie Bennett

Nothing’s what it seems.
Escape is just another broken dream.

In a city where vice and corruption reign, my life has become a nightmare.
With no one to turn to, I’m left with only one option—the man I should avoid at all costs.
Mateo Escuro.
The infamous crime lord who controls this city and everything in it, is now my only hope.
He promises to help me, but his terms aren’t negotiable: I must become his wife—in every sense of the word.
He is ruthless, unpredictable, and dangerously possessive.

As our twisted relationship intensifies, secrets from my past start to unravel, and I realize just how deeply Mateo is entangled in my family’s history. To survive this, I’ll have to surrender to him completely.
But in a world built on lies and deceit, surrendering to him might mean more than losing myself—it could cost me everything.

PLEASE NOTE
Queen of Vice is the first book in a duet, replacing the Old Money Trilogy. This is not a new release, but an updated version of Queen of Diamonds with significant changes and a full rewrite.
