I was born into a dark kingdom. I’m a mob princess—a pretty little flower in a gilded cage. No boys ever climbed my tower. No men ever got through the walls built around me. No one, except Vincent Cave. My bodyguard, my shadow. My gruff, silent, watchful guardian angel. A teddy bear to me, but a savage to anyone who’d seek to harm me. First he was my innocent crush. Then, it wasn’t so innocent. Eleven years older, and utterly gorgeous. Eyes that make my knees weak, arms I could get lost in, and lips that mine wanted to taste since I knew lips could do that. I’m back after three years away at boarding school. I thought that would cure me, but there’s no cure for Vincent Cave. Not when three years have made him hardened, and growlier, and even more irresistible. When the danger he always shielded me from comes calling, it’s Vincent and me, alone, on the run. I’ve grown up. He’s noticed. It was just a crush. Now, it’s just dangerous. Looking for the perfect blend of steamy and sweet? Some heat with your feels? This is just what you need! No cliffhanger, and a perfect happy ever after.

I’m torn between a hero I don’t know, and a monster who makes my knees weak. I come from Bratva royalty. But this is no fairytale, and I’m no princess. Right now, I’m a bartering chip. I’m being pushed to marry the cold, hardened kingpin boss of the Scaliami crime syndicate to smooth over a wrong I didn’t commit. He’s known as a savage. A cold and calculating villain. He’s a monster, and yet he’s also captivatingly gorgeous. He’s twice my age. He makes me think forbidden thoughts I’ve never had before. He makes me crave things I shouldn’t. Years ago, I fell for a hero. But now I’m losing my mind for a villain. One is the fantasy. The other is my future. And the lines between them are blurring by the second. But there’s more to this than meets the eye. The walls are closing in. My own criminal family wants me to play the double agent. Outside forces want to use me against him. But he just wants me. He wants me to scream his name. He wants to make me his in every possible way. And God help me, I want him to. Looking for the perfect blend of steamy and sweet? Some heat with your feels? This is just what you need! No cliffhanger, and a perfect happy ever after. This is a standalone story. The books in the Scaliami Crime Family series can be read in any order.

The job is just three simple rules: Protect the mafia don’s granddaughter, make sure she has whatever she needs, and don’t go to bed with and wake up accidentally married to her. On second thought, there’s a chance those rules aren’t so simple after all… I’ve worked and bled my whole life to get to where I’m at as a captain in the Scaliami Syndicate. I’ve pulled no punches. I’ve suffered no BS, not from anyone. Now, I’m supposed to play bodyguard to a gorgeous, innocent, and very much off-limits mafia princess during her trip to the States. Lucia Scaliami is out of bounds, ill-advised; verboten. Not to mention, betrothed to some other mafia don’s a-hole of a son. Looking at her could cost an eye. Touching her could destroy an empire. I’m supposed to be keeping her safe. And I’m pretty damn sure I’m not supposed to wind up in bed and in-matrimony with her. Whoops. Now, what happens in Vegas isn’t staying there. It’s coming home on her finger, and it might very well put me in the ground. But I don’t care. I’ve seen what I truly want from this life. And I’ll be damned if I let her get away from me.
