Claudius Rule #1 of being mafia boss- Trust no one. Rule # 2 - Keep your friends and enemies damn close. In the underground world, friends and enemies could be the same thing. Don’t let them know who you love… My story started out with a guy who liked a girl. She looked like an angel to him. I was the guy, Ava the angel. But… my life turned into this world where I got married to her twin sister and Ava hated me. Then I got caught in a game with the devil I didn’t want to play. My enemies used my weaknesses against me, and killed my wife. Ava could have died too so I stayed away. The universe, however, had other ideas and threw her right back in my path. An angel like her didn’t belong in the dark world of a Mafia boss. I know that, except, I’m selfish. I should leave her alone, but I can’t. The problem is …history is repeating itself, and there’s an enemy in my circle. It’s the same game as before and this time losing could get her killed. Ava Avoid him… That was the most sensible thing to do. Ten years ago, when I first met Claudius, I knew he was trouble. He’d made me love’s fool and broke my heart in so many ways when he married my sister. So, what was I doing running back into the arms of a man I shouldn’t be with? Coincidence reunited us, but my heart did the rest. My heart stifled the voice inside that told me to run away. My heart made me selfish... I wanted him for myself. I knew I shouldn’t be with him, but I couldn’t leave him alone. That very thing could be my downfall. This isn’t like any other second chance romance you’ve read before… Dirty Hearts is a standalone, full-length mafia romance and a part of the Gangsters and Dolls series.
