THE WICKED TRILOGY SERIES

The wicked TRILOGY | book ONE

Wattpad superstar Rebecca Johnpee bursts onto the dark romance scene with her fan favorite novel The Wicked—where mafia romance and heist thriller collide in an intensely unforgettable romance—in print for the first time.

Elio Marino, also known as “The Wicked,” is a man whose presence alone is enough to evoke a feeling more sinister than a dark graveyard. As head of the ruthless and notorious Marino Family, nothing can shake him, or so he believed.

Zahra Faizan is...dangerous. Growing up with men who treated bullets like sugar cubes, she has risen from the streets and created the most notorious gang of thieves in the country. But after a job goes wrong, Zahra finds herself and her crew held captive by The Wicked, and she will do just about anything to take advantage of it. Even if it means working with The Wicked and pulling off the biggest heist her gang has ever dreamed of.

Can she tame The Wicked and bring him to his ruin? Or tame him and keep him to herself? After all, even the wicked needs love.
