The Drakos Dynasty

Five Greek shipping cousins. Five women young enough, sharp enough, and impossible enough to bring them to their knees.

One island. One dynasty. One vow per man — and not a single one of them holds.

The World

One vow per man — and the vow does not survive the week.

Kalydon is a private island in the Aegean and the seat of the Drakos shipping dynasty — forty billion in tonnage, a chapel older than the family name, and a forty-year war with the Kallis crime family that has cost the Drakos cousins one wife, one wedding, and most of their conscience. The five cousins who run the dynasty have spent their adult lives on the wrong side of a vow each: to the dead, to the family, to the child each is raising alone. Then a ferry docks. Then a contract is signed. Then a door opens. And the vow does not survive the week.

Forbidden opens the dynasty when Theron Drakos breaks the vow he swore on his best friend's deathbed and claims the man's grown daughter. Captured places a nursing student behind the walls of a fortified estate where the family security chief reads a contract she did not. Inherited closes the Kallis feud when Konstantine takes the enemy's youngest daughter as collateral and refuses to touch her. Claimed brings an American art appraiser back to the island where the man who gave her a fake name four years ago has been paying her rent ever since. Bound ends the cycle: the Patriarch is dead, the dynasty needs a bride, and the woman the council sends signs the contract before the groom does.

First-person present, dual POV, alternating chapter by chapter. Five silver-fox cousins with one Greek endearment apiece. Five heroines who walk in carrying something the men did not expect to want — a father's eyes, a contract's fourth page, a signet ring, a daughter, a pen slid back across the table. Each book is a complete HEA. Read in any order. Read them all and the dynasty closes the way it opened: with a woman who refuses to look away.
