Dante

A dark cartel romance

Published: 3/3/2026

I didn’t fall in love.
I walked into a trap—eyes open, wrists bare, heart unguarded.

Dante promised escape.
Control. Power. Protection.

What he gave me was bruises I learned to crave, obedience that felt like choice, and a hunger I didn’t recognize until it owned me.

He taught me how to kneel.
How to break.
How to bloom in the dark.

I thought I was special.
I thought I mattered.

Then he left me in an abandoned warehouse with nothing but pain, lies, and a backpack full of stolen money—proof that I was never more than a pawn in his war for power.

Used.
Played.
Discarded.

But Dante made one mistake.

He forgot that monsters don’t just create weapons…
They create survivors.

And if he thinks I’ll disappear quietly, he’s about to learn what happens when a woman stops begging—and starts hunting.


A brutal, obsessive dark romance featuring a morally gray anti-hero, power imbalance and BDSM dynamics, cartel crime and betrayal, touch-her-and-die intensity, psychological obsession, and high-stakes passion with consequences.

This is a dark, unconventional romance with mature themes. Please check the author’s note for content warnings before reading.

Perfect for readers of Rina Kent, Luna Mason, and Shantel Tessier.

Praise for Dante

My, my, my, this dude is like a bad boy cookie - bad for my soul, but I just can't get enough. This book is ridiculously good. The ending had me all riled up. Mariana was feeling meh about life and wanted some excitement. Then she met Dante and got a whole lot more than she bargained for. Dante didn't know he was missing love until Mariana came along. Will this bad boy with a cold heart let himself fall for Mariana, or will he stick to his bad boy ways? I devoured this book. I have a thing for bad boys, which, let's be real, is not the best taste. This book will put you through all the feels. Give it a read.- Stacy ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

 

Dante by A. Unda-Tames absolutely wrecked me in the best way.
Dark, dominant, and dangerously addictive — Dante is EVERYTHING I want in a mafia anti-hero. The tension? Insane. The chemistry? Off the charts. The possessiveness? Chef’s kiss. 🔥
I devoured this book. Every scene had me hooked, and I could not get enough of the power plays, the obsession, and the intense emotional moments woven through all that darkness.
If you love ruthless mafia kings who fall hard and love even harder… RUN, don’t walk. I’m still thinking about him. 💀🔥- Adri ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Oh my god Dante you are so Bad for my soul, but I just can’t get enough—this book is unapologetically good. From the very first page, I was hooked and couldn’t put it down. Dante and Mariana have a dark, addictive chemistry that kept me on edge my seat, and the story hits all the feels, with suspense, heat, and emotional depth. Sensitive topics are handled with care, and the world and characters are beautifully drawn. Fans of dark romance will devour this one—I can’t wait for the next installment. - Donna ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
