Gravenport was no ordinary city. One side belongs to the Killers, ruled by the name Marcano. The other to the Kings, led by King Vale. Dead Mile splits these two leaders cleanly down the middle, but it wasn't always that way. Once, they were friends. Buried secrets and blood changed everything. Now Valentino Costa has carved deals in the dark to gain power and reclaim something he lost over six years ago. Victoria Marcano. His queen. The one girl that Rellik Marcano swore would always be off-limits, HIS SISTER. Valentino has his men preparing for war, waiting for the right moment to strike. But every plan goes out the window when Victoria shows up out of the blue. Love is tested. War presses at the door. Enemies linger in the shadows, aware of the weakness they share: love and loyalty for her. And trouble has a way of finding Victoria wherever she goes. Valentino and Rellik, after everything, have only one thing in mind: the throne over all of Gravenport. And in those quiet moments, when the wind carries the scent of larkspur and danger, the city holds its breath, waiting for their next move.
