Blurb
Revenge is messy—especially when your family puts the “fun” in dysfunction.
Hella Bang is back in L.A. after three years, and she’s not here for a family reunion. She’s here for payback. With a mixed-up mafia heritage that’s more zoo than family tree, Hella’s navigating a world of illicit deals, questionable morals, and enough drama to fuel a telenovela.
Her grand return kicks off with an ambush in a dark alley, a silver Colt, and a confrontation with her irritatingly familiar cousin, Bang Sungkyu. Between dodging family landmines, surviving embarrassing encounters, and dealing with a past that’s anything but innocent, Hella’s got a score to settle.
But in the Bang family, even revenge has a punchline. Get ready for a wild ride of passion, rebellion, and enough chaos to make you question your own sanity. If you thought your family was dramatic, you haven’t met the Bangs.
