I knew we’d be going home together. I just didn’t know he planned on keeping me there. Luca is an enforcer in a rival mafia family. He is my captor. Trapped with nothing, my body must become my weapon. And I will do anything to escape. Except, who is seducing who? Is it real, or part of the game? Am I betraying my family or being true to myself? Maybe I’ll escape the mafia life someday, but until then, I just do as I’m told. And then she becomes my target. Camilla is the rival don’s daughter. A job and nothing more. I hold her hostage and wait for instructions. Except, she isn’t going to take this lying down. Everything between us is a power play. A manipulation. She wants to escape, but I can’t let her go. Now the only question is: Why not? Defiant is a stand-alone novel that comes with a healthy dose of steam and a guaranteed HEA.
