Your Love Is The Worst Drug

Imagine a love so deep it was the worst drug you ever encountered.

Lai’shan ‘Widow’ Braga finds herself about to take over the Braga crime family empire and it’s something that she’s been trained for since the beginning and she’s ready for it. Not even being born a woman can stop Widow. Her family is on their way up to the top and she will be sitting on the throne. They are untouchable, unstoppable and nobody can rival them. No one except the Powell family who are just as powerful. These two families have only one thing in common; they both want to be the top! Mercutio ‘Sinister’ Powell is in the same position as Widow; he’s about to become the head of his family, something his mother has trained him for since he was a child. Now that it’s time, the only thing on Sinister’s and Widow’s minds are taking over and getting rid of the family that stands in their way. They get the opportunity but something they didn’t expect happens – they fall in love instead. Do they give in to their hearts desires even if it goes against everything they have been taught or will they put their families first and become the enemies they were destined to be?

Keirah Logan is the best friend to Widow and the daughter of a well-known District Attorney. While visiting her mother one day, she stumbles across Akari ‘Ruin’ Higgins, who also happens to be the man her mother is determined to put in jail! The two are instantly drawn to each other knowing that they have no business even entertaining the thought. But sometimes, what’s bad for you is what your heart wants the most, and they soon find that out when they can’t stay away from each other. The only problem is, people on both sides want to see them apart, and, Ruin isn’t as available as he seems. Do they give in to the temptation or do they allow their family to win over what their hearts desire?

And finally, we meet Micah – the younger cousin of Ruin. As the only princess in the family, she lives a sheltered life with Ruin running away any man that even looks in her direction. Knowing that her having a man is something that is never going to happen thanks to her cousin’s interference, Micah gives up the idea of finding that one and results to living carefree like her cousin. That’s until Jaiah ‘Wreck’ Bailey crash lands into her life. Just like every other man, Wreck is immediately warned off Micah and she is told the same. Wreck is okay with that because he is adamant that he’s there to pay off his sister’s debt and nothing more. However, sometimes love can hit you when you’re not even looking for it and it comes for them. Do they ignore Ruin and give in to what they want or will Ruin win?
Find out what paths these couples chose and what lengths some are willing to go to keep that that insatiable love.
