Ruby

The Armstrong empire has a new queen. And she’s ready to prove herself.

Ruby Armstrong has spent her life underestimated and overlooked. Now, with the Phoenix Club rising from the ashes, she is determined to build an empire of her own.

But Ruby is hiding a deadly secret. Joe Vescari is dead, and while the police search London’s underworld for his killer, nobody suspects the seemingly innocent Ruby Armstrong.

Then a fortune in stolen jewels brings a new threat to the Armstrongs’ door. Ruthless and unpredictable Gina Vescari wants them back — and she won’t take no for an answer.

With enemies closing in and loyalties tested, Ruby must learn fast if she wants to protect everything her family has fought for.

Armstrong women don’t surrender their power. They seize it.
