In a city where loyalty is rare and power is everything, Vivienne Moretti leads her family's mafia after her father’s death. She is determined to restore her family's lost honor, even if it means getting involved in crime and revenge. Vivienne is known for being clever and strong, never backing down from a fight.

Lucian "The Devil" DeMarco, the ruthless leader of a rival mafia family, dominates the underworld through fear and chaos. After an unexpected encounter with Vivienne, he sees her as both a threat and a challenge and he is drawn to her strong determination.

Lucian approaches Vivienne with a proposal—an alliance. A third mafia faction is threatening both their families, and Lucian believes that together, they have a chance to take it down. Though suspicious of his motives, Vivienne agrees, knowing this might be her only way to protect her family.

As they work together, their relationship becomes complicated by power, desire, and betrayal. Lucian’s dark past begins to surface, forcing Vivienne to question how much she can trust him. Both must decide how far they’re willing to go to secure their families’ survival.

After all, she's the Tigress, and he's the only one daring enough to be her King. Together, they might conquer the city—or destroy it.

Claire Monroe was once a rising star in the LAPD, engaged to the man she thought she’d spend her life with. In a single night, everything shattered—her career, her love, her world. Seeking refuge, she arrives in Grayhaven, a coastal town located in California.

At first, she brushes aside the uneasy glances and whispered warnings, but everything changes when in 48 hours of being in town. She discovers the body of a teenage boy, lifeless against the jagged cliffs.

From that instant, Grayhaven’s deceiving calm vanishes. Shadows stretch longer than they should, whispers crawl through the fog, and unseen eyes follow her every step. Each clue drags her further into a tide of secrets, where the past conceals unspeakable horrors—and those who pry too deeply may never surface again.

Because, In Grayhaven, the tide always turns—and it spares no one.
