When a mysterious stranger offers me ten times my usual rate to give his sister violin lessons, I can’t afford to say no. But now, the dark side of his life is knocking on my door. There’s nowhere to run except into his arms. Matteo DeLuca is fierce and powerful, always getting what he wants. Over six feet tall and the leader of a crime family, I never expect to discover this emotional, musical side of him through his texts. But I make a mistake and let myself get too close. Now, I’m caught in the crossfires of a Mafia war. It’s like there are two Matts: the one who ruthlessly does ...

After breaking up with the world’s biggest jerk, I’m reluctant to get back into the dating scene. So my best friend, Paula, and I make a deal. “If it’s ever going bad, shoot me a text, and I’ll come rescue you.” The only problem? I send the text to the wrong P – P for Professor Alexander. I met Asher Alexander on a history field trip, three years ago, only giving me his number in case of an emergency. So there’s no way he’s going to respond now three years later…right? But then he does more than that. This forty-three year old, silver-haired, muscular alpha appears and ...

With my aunt's medical bills piling up, I can't afford to say no to this payday: pretend to be a mob prince's fiancée, plan a fake wedding, and keep my emotions out of it. Simple, right? The only hitch? I'm falling for him. Dario Moretti is everything I’m not—wealthy, refined, and dangerously charming. He belongs to a world of luxury and power, while I’m just trying to stay afloat. I never imagined I'd start caring about him, but the more time we spend together, the harder it is to remember that this is all just a job. Dario’s gaze lingers a little too long. His touch sends shivers...

Logan Wolfe is the crush I thought I’d left behind. We shared a single kiss so greedy and hot that I ran off to college. I’ve finally returned home, and now he won’t let go. I'm ready for a new beginning at my dream job as a copywriter, where Logan Wolfe, my brother’s best friend, is my boss. Despite our working relationship, our texts take a steamy, taboo turn. Once we start, we can’t stop. When Logan sees something he wants, he takes it. He’s tall, handsome, grumpy, and, most importantly, off-limits. Giving into the texting temptation would mean breaking my big brother’s ...

My uncle is a dangerous man, an ex-enforcer known as ‘the savior’ who never backs down from a challenge. Now, he’s got his sights set on me. When I stand up to a mafia prince with a chip on his shoulder, I put myself in danger, forcing me to turn to my uncle, who now works as a lawyer. Pretending I don’t want him isn’t easy. I can’t betray Aunt Lucy, but as Nico and I text, our attraction grows until it’s hotter than sin and impossible to ignore. When I discover a secret about their so-called marriage, our temptation becomes irresistible. Words on a screen have no right to ...

I’m lucky to be working my dream job in a tattoo parlor. And now I get to tattoo my dream man? Kayden was a dog handler in the Marines, and now he wants to get his service animal tattooed on his muscled shoulder. No way an older, experienced guy would look twice at a curvy girl like me. Right? I’m shocked when he tells me, the rookie, to tattoo the piece. His body is a work of art, the sort that makes women—okay, me—swoon and obsess. How am I going to focus on my work when he’s shirtless? I try to banish the steamy thoughts. I tell myself it’s innocent, but his eyes tell a ...

My crush is inappropriate as all get out, but I can control it as long as he stays away. Too bad he’s back now. Brian Pearson was my secret heartthrob for years. He’s retired from the Marines finally, and now he wants me to tattoo him. Can I handle being in his presence and putting my hands on his body? My crush on him started way before I even got my braces. I’m nineteen now, but I know it doesn’t make any difference. I’m a curvy, inexperienced virgin. Brian is a forty-two-year-old fox who could have any woman he wants, and he just so happens to be my dad’s best friend. When ...

He fired one shot. I saw everything. Now, I dance for the Devil of Vegas. I'm Isla Hart, a ballet dancer about to get my big break—until one wrong turn backstage lands me as an unwilling witness to murder. He's Vincent Moretti, ice-blooded king of the Vegas Strip, but he doesn't silence me. Instead, he locks me in his glass-walled penthouse above the city, surrounded by silk sheets, steel rules, and a view of his empire. He demands obedience. I plan an escape. But the most untouchable man in Nevada soon discovers his one fatal weakness—me. Meanwhile... Gangs circle. A dirty cop digs. ...

My world is ruled by the law, but my heart is drawn to the one man who lives above it. The last time I saw Troy, I was a kid heading off to college with dreams of going to law school like him. I thought he was just a successful lawyer and my dad’s best friend, but that’s far from the truth. Turns out Troy is a mob boss, and my dad is his closest business partner. I became a lawyer to abide by the law, not break it, but the heat in his eyes has me wanting to break all the rules. Now we are on the run after a deal gone wrong. The sickest thing is, part of me is actually enjoying the ...

**Now an Amazon Top 70 Best Seller** When I leave a note for the mafia don at his table, I beg for his help. I never expect him to text back or to tell me he wants something in return… My dad’s got us into trouble again. His get-rich-quick schemes always mess up the family. Now, loan sharks are circling, and I’m unsure what to do. When I see Elio Marino at the restaurant where I am a waitress, I almost lose it. My mind. My soul. I fall hard, but I have to be smart. This isn’t a fairytale. He’s tall, way taller than me, ripped with muscle, mature, and brooding as hell. I know I ...

He kidnapped me to save me, but now we must fight our desires, or risk losing everything. As a mafia princess, I have no choice when my father arranges my marriage to a terrifying stranger. But there's someone even more dangerous: Dante Bianchi, the devastatingly handsome, ripped, and intensely brooding mafia enforcer working security the night my husband-to-be goes too far. To protect me, Dante must make me disappear. Trapped in his luxurious penthouse prison, with only a cell phone connecting me to the outside world, the simmering tension between us boils over into steamy encounters that ...

This crush won’t quit. It’s inappropriate as hell. I’m all grown up, and he’s back in my life. My mom’s ex. The man she hates. He promised my dad he’d always be there. After Dad passed, Jaxson was true to his word, swinging by when I was younger. Before the fallout. Before whatever happened between him and Mom. My bet is they slept together, and the thought makes me sick. Jaxson gave us his number… in case of emergencies. Well, Mom’s crazy ex definitely counts as one. Jaxson comes and handles the problem. He’s got everything a girl could want in a man, even a shy girl—...

The choice is simple: Marry the bride my father chose or let the city burn. I chose fire for her. The King is dead, and it’s time to take my place on the throne. I may not be a good man, but I’m not a bad man like my father, the previous Pakahn. He played his son like a puppet, but I’m done playing by his rules. I’m supposed to marry and unite two Bratva families. I have my bride, but she has changed everything. The first time I saw my Lia, I knew she was mine, but I knew what this realization meant—war. They think it’s a threat, telling me the city will fall if I don’t do ...

Revenge is a dish best served steamy. When I break things off with my boyfriend, I hope it will be peaceful. The truth is, I’ve been crushing on his dad ever since our so-called relationship began—not that I’ve told anybody. Ryan gets vicious and cruel with me when I end things. He tears down my self-esteem like he enjoys it. So when I’m out with my bestie, and we see his dad, Duke Harrow, we have an idea. Date him for revenge. Try to seduce him. It seems ridiculous at first. I’m half his age, inexperienced, on the curvier side. Seduction? Heck, I’m a virgin. He screams out of ...

He’s a mafia hitman, the only one who can save me, all because of a lie I told. Since Colt Walker gave me his number, I haven’t stopped thinking about the mysterious and dangerously attractive man. In a moment of desperation, I lie and tell him I’m being stalked, not expecting him to take it so seriously. Now, his protectiveness is off the charts, and his steamy texts are driving me wild. But I’m living on borrowed time with this secret. I’m out of my depth. He’s older, experienced, and carries an aura of authority I can’t resist. As someone who’s never been with a man, the ...
