You’re not supposed to love a killer. Vito Manzella is the family hitman and second in line to the throne of his father’s empire. Don’t be deceived by his handsome face, or those deep dark eyes. He’s no knight in shining armor. He’s dangerous, he’s feared. God knows how many bodies he dropped. Our first meeting began with my dying father beside me. I was a pawn in a game I didn’t even knew I was playing. Now I’m in the hands of my supposed allies. I can’t decide anything on my own. I belong to him now. Me, the Calderone Mafia Princess. I’m not innocent. But I’m untouched … At the mercy of a killer. But something happened when our paths crossed in that secluded safe house. I am a prisoner. It’s all wrong, and yet when I climbed into Vito’s bed it felt right. Then he’s gone and everyone drops their masks. Secrets come to light. If we can’t be together then I will be alone. I don’t want to show this part of myself to anyone else. Not ever. Suddenly I don’t know any more who’s friend and who’s enemy. Or, who I can turn to with the secret I’m carrying with me. I thought I knew who to trust. Now I’m not so sure… “Dark Protector” is the first book in the Secret Club of Kings series.
