I Was Raised by 108 Criminal Dads and They're All Overprotective

by Evelyn Jackson

Riley Chen's childhood lullabies were gunfire, bedtime stories were heist plans, and family dinner meant 108 of the most dangerous criminals in Ravenwood City arguing over who got to teach her math. Now eighteen and trying to live a normal life, Riley discovers that escaping her unconventional upbringing is impossible when her overprotective "dads" have eyes everywhere, connections to everything, and zero tolerance for anyone who might hurt their little girl. When Riley's attempt at college, dating, and ordinary independence collides with the criminal underworld's most notorious family, she must navigate between the normal life she craves and the only family she's ever known. But as old enemies resurface and new threats emerge, Riley realizes that having 108 deadly criminals who would burn the world down to keep her safe might be either her greatest protection or her most dangerous liability. In a city where loyalty is currency and family is everything, one girl raised by chaos must decide what kind of person she wants to become—and whether she can ever truly leave the only home she's ever known.
