"Mariano “Reno” DeLuca uses his skills and resources to create safe havens for women who find themselves in dangerous situations. Unfortunately, a surge in criminal activity in the Chatham area threatens the women’s anonymity and security, including the mysterious beauty who landed on the doorstep of The Second Chance at Life Women’s Shelter right before an all-hands-on-deck call that summons him to The Castle.
When Zuri Okusanya, an exotic Tanzanian princess, arrives seeking refuge from an arranged marriage and its deadly consequences, Mariano is now forced to relocate the women in the shelter to an even more secluded place. He is striving hard not to lose his heart to the forbidden goddess, all while fighting an enemy who’s supposed to be an ally and fending off immoral attempts by men who covet his seat on The Castle’s board.
Will Mariano have the power to defeat his adversaries before they destroy him and the woman he loves?"
"The Castle: elite, elusive … dangerous.
A secret organization which once stood for protection and benevolence, The Castle is now corrupted by illegal acts, greed, and dirty politics. Every crime syndicate and dirty politician on earth are determined to control the massive fortune guarded by The Kings: a found family forged by fate but called to action by crisis.
When their mentor ends up on the business end of an assassination attempt, he summons nine men to right old wrongs and track those responsible. The Kings of the Castle, now grown into captains of industry and influential leaders across Chicago, bring their unique skillsets to the daring mission to bring their enemies down—even if they have to rack up a body count to do it.
The job won’t be easy, and nobody knows it more than the women destined to love each of these men. As powerful forces conspire to twist the Castle’s riches for their own good, convictions are challenged and relationships tested. In the end, will the sacrifices be worth it?"
