It was a mistake to get involved with my son's best friend. Seven years ago, my son's best friend Ollie vanished. I searched for him for years but I never found him. Despite what the FBI told me, I never gave up. When he shows up to my house unannounced, I don't know how to react. He's a legal adult now and exactly like the boy I used to know. Yet there's a dark side to Ollie now, one I can't ignore. His eyes are the same shade of blue as the boy in the mask I've been meeting up with at a local club. And he's the same height as the anonymous killer my Mafia bosses are ordering me to hunt. When Ollie confesses he's on a mission to murder my bosses, I don't know if I should put a bullet in his head... or become his Daddy. Stabby Little is a 100,000-word MM Mafia Daddy romance with an age gap, morally gray characters, stuffies, cuddles, playdates, snarky banter, gratuitous violence and a guaranteed HEA. It is a spin-off from Aster Rae's bestselling Italian Protectors trilogy but can be read as a standalone.

My nephew's best friend isn't the boy I thought he was. Even for a Mafia hitman, the last few weeks have tested my patience. My work partner, Grant, and I discovered our former bosses ran a human trafficking operation out of their Yonkers warehouse basement. Now I run into my nephew's best friend at a club… and he's all grown up. Twenty-year-old Sparrow still carries his sparrow stuffy around, but instead of the badges he wore when I led his Wilderness Explorer troop, his jacket pockets are stuffed with knives. I should run from this unexpectedly gorgeous blast-from-the-past—this has disaster spelled all over it. I can't decide whether to leave things in the past where they belong… or become Sparrow's Daddy. Stabby Boy is a 100,000-word MM Mafia Daddy romance with an age gap, a morally gray hitman named Jagger, an even more morally gray boy named Sparrow, stuffies and slumber parties, shocking twists, gratuitous violence, extra stabbiness, and a guaranteed HEA. It should be read after Book #1 in this series.
