A M/M Yakuza Romance

De: Marian Black

Narrado por: Virtual Voice

Ten years ago, Kenji Nakamura fled Tokyo with a broken heart, believing the man he loved had chosen duty over their future together. Now a successful financial consultant in New York, he's forced to return when his firm accepts a mysterious client requiring urgent restructuring. That client is the Yamamoto-kai yakuza clan. His contact is Hiroshi Yamada—the man who shattered him.

Hiroshi has spent a decade hiding his truth beneath expensive suits and yakuza violence. Covered in traditional tattoos that tell stories of loss and regret, he's become the weapon his clan needed him to be. But keeping Kenji safe once meant breaking his heart with carefully crafted lies. Now Kenji is back, brilliant and furious and in danger from rival clans who see change as weakness.

As Kenji works to transform the Yamamoto-kai into a legitimate empire, every spreadsheet and strategy session brings him closer to a truth Hiroshi tried to bury: some loves are too powerful to kill, even with the cruelest words. But when rival yakuza target Kenji and Hiroshi's position in the clan comes under threat, they must decide if their second chance is worth the blood it will cost.

A second-chance MM romance featuring forced proximity, yakuza politics, traditional Japanese culture, and the discovery that some promises are written in ink and flesh too deep to ever truly fade
