These Violent Delights, book 1 of 2 completed series

The Year is 1926, and Shanghai hums to the tune of debauchery.

A blood feud between two gangs runs the streets red, numbing the city to its chaos. At the heart of it all eighteen-year-old Juliette Cai, a former flapper girl who has returned to begin her duties as the proud heir to the Scarlet Gang - a network of criminals far above the law. Their only rivals in power are the White Flowers, who have fought the Scarlets for generations. And behind every move is their heir, Roma Montagov, who was Juliette's first love until he betrayed her.

But when gangsters on both sides start clawing their own throats out, the people start to whisper. Of a contagion, a madness. Of a monster in the shadows.As the deaths stack up, Juliette and Roma must set their guns aside and work together no matter their personal grudges. For if they cannot contain this mayhem, then there will be no city left for either to rule.
