"The Mob King and His Enemy's Daughter" Natalia Gambino was raised to obey. Her father's world had one rule-bend or break. She learned to bend--perfectly and quietly. Until bending became the only thing she knew how to do. When Vito promises her to his underboss, Natalia accepts it the way she accepts everything--in silence. She doesn't know someone is coming... Alessandro Rubino has spent eighteen years building toward one moment. He doesn't want the throne. He wants to ruin the man sitting on it. Taking the man's daughter was never the plan. Keeping her was never supposed to happen either. She thinks she's escaping one cage... just to be locked into another? ---- "Look at you..." he murmured, his breath warm against my neck. My body betrayed me, trembling as his hand traced lower, slow and deliberate. "...never forget who you belong to, Natalia." I swallowed, my voice barely a whisper. "I won't." His grip tightened, his voice dropping into something darker. "Then prove it. Bend over for me." ---- - book 2 of "The Prodigy" series (can be read as a standalone)

I had been second best all my life. But this time, when it comes to her, I'm not willing to accept defeat. I'll do whatever it takes to get her to choose me. *** Having a best friend that was wildly popular, and one of the best hockey players in the United American Hockey League, was both a curse and a blessing. On the plus side, I got to play hockey with my best friend, and there was never a shortage of beautiful girls. At least there wasn't until Nash decided to man up and tell his childhood friend that he'd always loved her. The bad part was that I usually ended up being second best. In my late teens and early twenties I hadn't cared that I wasn't picked in the first round of the draft, or that sponsors chose Nash ahead of me, or even if I ended up with a girl who didn't really want me for me. I made a nice living playing hockey. I had a few good friends and a nice place to live in the middle of Manhattan. Despite not being the best, I'd made most of my dreams come true and it was a far stretch from the lonely kid I'd been growing up in the rural Midwest. I was happy. I was content. Until her.... It's not like I didn't want what Nash had. I did. I do. Who doesn't want a happily ever after? It's just that I've never taken the risk and allowed a woman to see past my defenses before, to see the real me, with my baggage and all my insecurities... until now. As scary as that is in itself, what makes it complicated is that my new roommate, Jackson - who I offered my spare bedroom to a while back when he needed a place to stay - and Bryce - one of my friends and teammates- also seem to have an interest in her... the woman who has me questioning all my decisions. The thing is... I'm pretty sure I'm not willing to be a second choice this time around...

A girl who talks too much. A man who barely speaks. A beginning that already feels like trouble. Isla Bennett has always been easy to read, easy to love, and impossible to silence, drifting through life with a kind warmth. Rafe Costello is the complete opposite, a CEO built on control and silence, someone who keeps his distance because it's easier than letting anyone get close enough to matter. What begins as reluctant proximity between them, slowly turns into something neither of them can seem to stay away from. But the question is.. how does a man who trusts nothing learn to trust someone like her? And how does a girl who feels everything, handle the one person she cannot quite figure out? ------------------------------------------------------------------ He shook his head slightly. But lifted his arm anyway. She spun again, laughing louder this time, and when she looked back at him he was watching her carefully. He muttered quietly under his breath. "You're trouble." Isla blinked at him, before soon smiling with a wide grin. "I'll take that as a compliment." ------------------------------------------------------------------ -SEQUEL TO 'MR.SERIOUS'-

Chloe's life changes forever when her mother marries a wealthy man, but neither realizes she is marrying into a corrupt Italian mafia family. Moving into their estate brings Chloe face-to-face with her new stepbrother, Santino. He hates her on principle. The fact that she is moving into the room right across the hall makes her an intruder in his world, and he isn't shy about letting her know it. Her presence is a distraction Santino can't ignore. Whether he's blasting music or bringing women home, he's constantly aware of her across the hall, and that loss of control infuriates him. A man who handles his demons with violence, Santino's fuse only gets shorter with her nearby. Their bond is a cycle of explosive bickering and mutual loathing-a match held to a powder keg that's bound to blow. Then there's Rudy, Santino's best friend. Rudy doesn't want Chloe out of the house-he just wants her. To him, she's innocent, tiny, and hot, but it's her attitude he can't wait to see break. He's a man waiting for his moment while the chaos between the step-siblings unfolds. But Chloe has a secret. Will she drop her innocent act and show these men she knows more than both of them combined-including in bed? Will Rudy break her attitude and have her, or will Santino's explosive temper finally break her, proving that he'd rather destroy his stepsister than ever let her in? I'll give you a hint... neither wins, because she belongs to both.

At eighteen, Josephine's life is a rigid cycle of survival. After being disowned at fifteen and abandoned by the father of her child, she has spent the last two years working nonstop to provide for her son, Ethan. Every cent of her $22.90 hourly wage at an upscale downtown hotel is accounted for, split between a $1,120 monthly rent for a crumbling apartment and the $13 an hour she pays her unreliable babysitter. She exists in the shadows of the night shift, scrubbing floors and changing linens while the rest of the world sleeps. The fragile balance of her life is threatened when Barrett and Andrew arrive. The twenty-year-old heirs are arrogant, conceited, and only at the hotel to prove a point to their wealthy parents. They want their trust funds early, and they treat the workplace like a playground. To them, everything and everyone is disposable. When Josephine's babysitter chooses a date with her boyfriend over her responsibilities, she drops two-year-old Ethan at the hotel curb, leaving him with the new valet team: Barrett and Andrew.

But as the hotel manager prepares to fire her for the disturbance, Barrett intervenes with a lie. He claims Ethan is his little brother, dropped off by mistake.

Now, Josephine is left without a babysitter and to make matters worse, Ethan has taken a sudden liking to the two arrogant men who saved his mother's job.
