Description
Empress reigns as 1930’s Chicago’s cunning Queen Pin, yet sultry Dulce Ella Monroe still longs for freedom from oppression her criminal empire provides. But when rivals threaten all that the influential and glamorous Empress built, her last hope of defense walks through the door in sharp-shooting ex-lover Snipes Creed, now a foe for hire bound to the enemy.
A decade ago, Perry Savage had stolen Dulce's heart before battles abroad stole their chance at happiness. Discharged into Depression’s bleak landscape, taking on the alias Snipes Creed elevated Perry from destitute veteran to contract fixer extraordinaire. But no success could eclipse memories of the one who got away.
Facing off on opposing sides yet still bound by unbreakable passion, past promises, and present perils, Snipes and the notorious Empress must determine if their romance can rise again or if devastation will strike when luck inevitably runs dry. For two scarred souls gambling everything on last bets placed in the name of love and legacy, only one question remains: will Chicago burn them both before they burn Chicago down?

Thank you to NetGalley, the publisher Black Odyssey Media, and the author Tarris Marie for an advance reader’s copy in exchange for a honest review. All opinions are my own.
Tarris Marie is a phenomenal writer. In her latest literary offering, Marie has a well paced novel that gives wisdom and knowledge about life while you read and enjoy Empress’s journey. In all honesty, this is the first book that I have read by the author and I am glad this book found me. Set in Chicago, in the 1930s, we meet Empress and follow her journey as she makes a name for herself as a queen pin and possibly finds love. With vivid details and sharp dialogue, Marie has a great period era novel that reads like a crime drama. You will root for the protagonist while being reminded that you can make your own luck, no matter where you start in life. I sincerely hope that Tarris Marie has a long career as a writer and continues to pen more stories as such. Kudos on a fantastic novel.

This uses the 1930s element in Chicago perfectly to tell the story that it needed to. I was invested in what was going on and thought the characters had that feel that I was looking for. Tarris Marie has a strong writing style and the characters felt like they belonged in this story. It had that time-period perfectly and glad I was able to read this.
