Although part of the Chicago Syndicate world, The Man in Black is a complete standalone and can be enjoyed either with or without reading the rest of the series.

Brielle
He consumed my mind. I never even crossed his.
From the moment I met Michael, mysteriously brooding and dressed like a dark angel, there was something electric between us. Or so I thought.
What I believed was a seductive and undeniably raw attraction has ended up being something else entirely, something I never foresaw.
Because he's a skilled liar and a master manipulator, and I downright misread his intentions.
And now I'm afraid that falling for the man in black might become my biggest regret.

Michael
An overwhelming remorse haunts me after losing my fiancée, but I'm not a man who can afford to lower my guard.
I'm a ruthless criminal, one of the top members of the merciless mafia, the Chicago Syndicate, and I moved back home to keep to myself and do a job.
But when a curvaceous pastry chef with a beautiful smile and a possible link to my former life catches me in a reckless moment, I'm forced to watch her and strategize a plan.
Because I'm not sure if she's out to get me or if she's just an innocent civilian who doesn't know that the restaurant she works at is actually a front to launder Syndicate money.
And I intend to find out if she's playing me while I'm playing her. But then the demons that haunt me force me to make a huge mistake...

Deceit has a price -- I just have to make sure I don't pay with her life.
