Wrong Target

Jayce Carter was born broke but brilliant, surviving the streets of Brooklyn with nothing but a sharp mind, sharper tongue, and a dark ambition. After his brother is murdered in a drug deal gone wrong, Jayce claws his way into the underworld—not to survive, but to dominate. He builds his blood empire from scratch—laundering money, stealing territory, and outsmarting every rival. But there’s one man he can’t outmaneuver: Malik Stone—the dangerously sexy, calculating kingpin who once broke Jayce's heart... and now wants a cut of his empire. Enemies close in. Bodies pile up. And Jayce must decide: Will he let love weaken him—or weaponize it to destroy everyone in his way? Power. Betrayal. Bloodlust. In the game of kings, only one man can rule... and Jayce is done playing fair.

New York will burn until every traitor begs. And the Undefeated God of War never loses.

But what Erin does not know is that the man she discarded is no ordinary firefighter. Derek is the long-lost heir to a global financial dynasty whose wealth is measured not in millions or billions, but in quintillions. Now the wife who exploited him, the superior who framed him, and the relatives scheming to steal his inheritance still believe Derek is the same powerless man they can humiliate and control. They are about to discover the truth. They betrayed the wrong firefighter.
