She'll carry my baby as payment for her defiancé. I didn’t travel five thousand g*ddamn miles just to get knocked out and tied up by a girl. As soon as I manage to get out, I’m going to have my revenge. She’ll pay for this. She’ll pay with her ripe mouth, with her obedience. That’s a promise. I’m not a murderer – not anymore, at least. But Rowena Davenport might make me go back to my old ways. I’m here to bring her father back to the Esposito crime family. Apparently, the old man owes them lots of money. Just before I can wrap things up, though, she gets the jump on me and chains me up. Mired in this sh*thole of a basement, it seems like she has the upper hand. But one look in my eyes and she knows that these handcuffs will not be enough to tame a beast like me. We make a deal. I’ll spare her father… in exchange for her. Now, the sexy scientist is mine to do with as I please. I drink in the sight of her naked body stretched before me and can’t help but lick my lips. This will be fun. But time is not on our side. The Espositos have caught wind of my little bargain, and they’re far from pleased. Men are coming now – men with pasts even darker than mine. If we’re going to make it out alive, Row will have to answer one question: Does she trust me? Hitman's Promise is book 1 of the Esposito Family Mafia trilogy. Books 2 and 3, Hitman's Oath and Hitman's Vow are available everywhere now!
