Fierce King
L.A. Ruthless #1
Fierce King (2021)
Fierce King is the first novel in Sadie Kincaid’s L.A. Ruthless series, and its premise turns on a forced marriage set inside the Montoya crime family. The story begins with Alana Carmichael on her wedding day, about to marry Alejandro Montoya, a man known as the king of Los Angeles. She is not entering the marriage willingly or romantically; she is doing it to save her father. From there, the book sets up a dark, high-pressure relationship in which fear, resentment, attraction, and family secrets are tightly bound together.
Readers can expect a contemporary mafia romance with an intense, emotionally charged tone rather than a broad external plot. The setting is built around wealth, power, and criminal influence, while the central conflict comes from Alana being trapped in a situation she does not control and trying to understand the man she has been forced to marry. As the story unfolds, it leans into danger, mistrust, and the discovery that the most threatening people are not always the ones who seem most obvious at first.
