Vespa has only trusted one man. As a daughter of the mafia, Vespa proved herself to the family and earned her place as her best friend’s enforcer despite her gender. She’s the only one who will ever know about the scars left behind from attempts to put her in her place. She has everything she ever wanted, and a one night stand isn’t going to change things, no matter how perfect the hours were. Antonio believes all women will betray. Growing up shadowed by his mother’s toxic ambitions, Antonio instead dedicates his life to the brother he’s always loved. He will do anything in his loyalty to La Cosa Nostra. Use anyone. Expecting to twist the opposing family’s enforcer to his whims, he sets out to seduce her, but ends up seduced instead. Her steadfast honesty, especially in her desires, comes close to stealing his heart. Partnered in a task for the newly cooperating mafia families, Vespa and Antonio are forced to see how alike they are in their priorities. When danger lurks, the ability to rely on each other stokes the growing flames between them. But when a passionate moment nearly destroys all they hold dear, regret turns into a joint pursuit of vengeance. Only the enemy’s target has been one of them all along. And the other will see everyone’s blood spill before they’ll ever let that happen. With wounded but vengeful heroines and protective, morally gray heroes, the Gentle Sinners series contains interconnected standalones with steamy, open door scenes and no cliff hangers. Amber Warden’s stories often include characters overcoming tragic pasts or current hardships and may include situations that not everyone would like to read. Content notes are included in the look inside to help you decide if this story is for you.

Amber Warden started reading romance before she probably should have. Before long, she was anticipating the steamy scenes and skipping to the good parts. She loves dreaming up new book boyfriends and lives out her fantasies in her stories. Her main hope is for those reading to take away the feeling that they are more than enough for anyone. When she's not writing, she's reading shoujo manga, playing otome games, and listening to her favorite J-rock music. She'd love to hear from her readers: amberwardenauthor@gmail.com Instagram @amberwardenwrites Facebook @amberwardenauthor
