Secrets, loyalty, and a dangerous return

The concluding volume of the Wages of Sin duet places Imogen Demotta between two competing accounts of her past. Back with her grandfather and Larissa, she is told that Lincoln Knight was responsible for her parents’ deaths; her own doubts about him leave her with no clear source of truth. Her search leads her back toward Lincoln and into the organized-crime world surrounding the Brotherhood. The romance is framed by masked identities, forbidden desire, and the question of whether trust can survive revelations that overturn what Imogen believed. The description also positions the story as a Beauty and the Beast-inspired dark romance with suspense and a slow-burn relationship.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Readers of dark romance set against organized crime.
  • Those interested in romance involving secrets, masked identities, and morally ambiguous characters.
  • Readers following the Wages of Sin duet; this is its concluding volume.

Book overview

The queen of dark mafia romance, Sadie Kincaid, concludes her new explosively sexy Wages of Sin duet with The Game. Beauty and the Beast meets organized crime in this tense slow-burn romance with scorching spice, thrilling suspense, and life-altering secrets.

My name is Imogen Demotta, and everything I thought I knew was a lie.


I thought Lincoln Knight was my savior. My tortured hero--hiding from the world behind a mask. The man I fell in love with. He opened my eyes to the world and encouraged me to find my true self, unleashing my deepest, most forbidden desires.

He was my knight, and I was his queen.

Then I learned his darkest secret, and everything changed.

He might have removed his mask but he never let me see who he was beneath it.

Now I'm back in the care of my grandfather and the woman who raised me, Larissa. I should feel safe and relieved. Instead, I'm more confused and afraid than ever.

They tell me that Lincoln isn't what he seems. That he was the reason my parents were killed. They want me to help take Lincoln down in service of the Brotherhood I despise.
But even if I don't trust Lincoln, I cannot believe he would be capable of such cruelty.

My eyes are open now. I may not know the truth, but I do know everyone around me is lying.

I need to uncover the truth before it's too late, and that means finding my way back to Lincoln. Because he's the key to all of this.

The key to my freedom.
