The Underboss Insurrection series by Cate C. Wells is a dark mafia romance series, sitting at the more intense end of her output compared to the motorcycle club and paranormal romance series. Run Posy Run (2021) opens the series with Posy and Dario Volpe, a mafia man whose intentions toward her are genuinely threatening. Nicky the Driver (2022) follows with another dark romance in the same criminal world.

Made Man (2025) is the third and most recent entry, extending the series into Wells’ active publishing slate for that year. Each book features a different couple navigating the dangers of organized crime alongside the romance. The books can technically be read as standalones but share a world and some recurring elements.

The series connects to her Stonecut County books — Nicky the Driver is described as a Stonecut County romance, reflecting the overlapping worlds Wells has constructed across her series.
