Sin City Books in Order

Sin City is a dark paranormal romance set in a version of Las Vegas where vampires, wolf shifters, and humans are caught in a violent struggle for control. Crissy Smith co-wrote the opening book, King of the City, with Athena Steller. It introduces a city where supernatural power is not hidden behind polite rules. It is fought over.

At the center is Alexei, the most powerful vampire in the city, whose authority is complicated by the monster who made him. Christopher is tired of his wolf shifter Pack being pushed to the edges of town and wants a bigger claim on the city. Their conflict gives the story its main pressure point, with both sides prepared to use force to protect their people and gain ground.

The humans are not simply bystanders.

Detective Jacob knows something is badly wrong in his city and starts digging into events that do not fit the official version of Las Vegas. Evan, meanwhile, stumbles into the supernatural world with little idea of the danger around him. Their viewpoints help show how the city looks from different sides of the conflict, from those who hold power to those who are only beginning to understand it.

This is a darker, more explicit series than the Pack-centered romances in Smith's other work. The mood is tense, bloody, and morally messy. Characters make risky choices, loyalties are uncertain, and the supernatural groups are not presented as harmless neighbors. The book includes several relationship dynamics and puts adult romance alongside violence and power struggles.

Las Vegas matters here because it is a place of appetite, money, secrecy, and reinvention. It gives the supernatural factions plenty to fight over, while the city itself makes it easy for ordinary people to miss what is happening in the shadows. Clubs, streets, territory, and status all become part of the battle.

Start with King of the City. It establishes the rival groups, the key characters, and the stakes of a city heading toward open war. Readers should expect an adult paranormal fantasy with multiple points of view, graphic content, and a strong focus on danger as well as desire.
