“Merciless Saints” by Michelle Heard is a dark mafia romance novel and the first book in the “St. Monarch’s Academy” series. The story follows Winter Hemsley, also known as the “Blood Princess,” and Damien Vetrov, a skilled Custodian.
Winter is determined to protect her family and seek revenge on those who assassinated her mother. She enrolls in St. Monarch’s Academy, a neutral ground where heirs of powerful crime families train to assume their future roles. Winter aims to become a Custodian to her younger brother, ensuring his safety as he prepares to lead the family’s diamond smuggling business.
Damien Vetrov, one of the best Custodians, is tasked with protecting assassins. He plans to work with Carson Koslov, a renowned assassin, continuing the partnership between their families. Damien is drawn to Winter, despite knowing she could be a dangerous distraction.
The novel unfolds with alternating points of view, allowing readers to delve into both Winter’s and Damien’s perspectives. The plot is filled with action, suspense, and steamy romance, characteristic of mafia romance novels. Winter’s resilience and strength make her a compelling heroine, while Damien’s protective nature and alpha personality add to the tension and allure of the story.
The book is part of a series, but it can be read as a standalone. It combines elements of enemies-to-lovers and instant love tropes, and is known for its intense and unexpected twists, making it a gripping read for fans of romantic suspense and mafia romance (The StoryGraph) (Book Lovin’ Mamas).
