Shades of Red

OLD FEUD. NEW THREAT. The streets run red in the city of Lochridge, where violence is law and loyalty is unquestionable. At its heart is a long-standing feud between two rival gangs-the White Roses and the Ravens-that has corrupted everything it's touched. As the heirs to the two gangs, Stella Rook and Jordan Daelik have been enemies since birth, tragedy and bloodshed hanging between them. When a new threat arrives in Lochridge in the form of Silas Tradow, a cunning businessman intent on seizing control of their city, the very foundations of the gangs are shaken. Forced into an uneasy alliance, the two heirs must set aside their strife and work together to overcome the threat before it can consume them. Stella and Jordan have every reason to hate each other, but as they grow closer, their rivalry turns into something else-attraction. But in a city where trust is dangerous and love is a death wish, they can't afford to let their guards down, no matter the cost. Diamond in the Rough author Jayden Thompson is back with a sweeping novel about ruthless ambition, dangerous romance, and a city on the brink of destruction-where the only thing deadlier than power is who you give your heart to.
