What if the man sworn to kill you becomes the only one who can save you?

In the seething heart of 1920s Chicago—where jazz seduces, gin flows, and violence simmers beneath silk gloves—seamstress and club singer Rose O'Sullivan witnesses a gangland execution that shatters her quiet double life. When the city's most feared bootlegger, Dante Torrino, whisks her from certain death, she's pulled into a world of speakeasies, blood-soaked power plays, and a dangerous passion neither of them can afford.

He's ruthless by reputation, a man shaped by loss and war. She's desperate to protect her family—and drawn to a man who could destroy them. As rival gangs close in and federal agents circle like wolves, Rose must decide where her loyalty lies... and what she's willing to risk for love.

The Bootlegger's Ballad is a smoldering romantic thriller of forbidden love, jazz-soaked nights, and loyalty tested by fire. One wrong move—and it's all over.

Will she betray her heart—or burn the city down with it?
