From USA Today bestselling author Rina Kent comes a new STANDALONE MM college romance.

I’m not attracted to men.

Or so I thought before I slammed into Nikolai Sokolov.

A mafia heir, a notorious bastard, and a violent monster.

An ill-fated meeting puts me in his path.

And just like that, he has his sights set on me.

A quiet artist, a golden boy, and his enemy’s twin brother.

He doesn’t seem to care that the odds are stacked against us.

In fact, he sets out to break my steel-like control and blur my limits.

I thought my biggest worry was being noticed by Nikolai.

I’m learning the hard way that being wanted by this beautiful nightmare is much worse.

Legacy of Gods

The series

Full series details →

Power isn’t inherited—it’s carved, claimed, and bled for.

Read full series description

Set in the elite halls of Royal Elite University, Legacy of Gods is a dark romance series that strips away the polish of privilege to expose something far more brutal: obsession, betrayal, and a hunger for control disguised as love. At the heart of this world are the heirs—children of ruthless kings and queens who ruled before them—now left to fight for dominance in their own twisted games of desire and power.

But this isn’t just a story of enemies and lovers. It’s a layered descent into emotional chaos, where every glance can cut deeper than a blade, and every touch threatens to unravel carefully guarded secrets. Each book crackles with electric chemistry, while never letting you forget the danger lurking behind every soft word or seductive smile.

What makes this series resonate isn't just the scandal or the angst—though there’s plenty of both. It’s the way vulnerability and violence dance together. The fragile parts of these characters—ones they never intended to show—become the very weapons that change everything.

Perfect for readers drawn to morally gray heroes, forbidden dynamics, and psychological tension that tightens with each page, Legacy of Gods doesn't ask for your attention. It takes it—and doesn’t let go.
