"Love and hate are strong words, yet they cause so much pain." -Unknown Grace Collins is many things: Sweet, caring, always thinking about others. But, she is also headstrong, tough, and a badass. She lives a normal middle class life working as a nurse at New York General Hospital. She has the most normal life anyone could have. Well...at least she did. Alessio Romano. He is 26 years old and leader of the Sicilian Mafia. He is the complete opposite of Grace; he is rude, arrogant, selfish. He never says please or thank you, he never apologizes, he expects everything to be done to his liking, and above all he kills with no remorse. "Maybe some people are just shaped to be how they want to be. Or maybe, someone can help shape them to how they should be." -Lilith Paige ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "Or what? What will you do, Mr. Romano? Just because I work with you doesn't mean you can control my whole life," I state. "I can make my own decisions." "What if I won't let you?" He replies taking a step closer to me. "What if I said that I didn't want you to go out with other men? Hmm?" He raises his eyebrow, and I back up to where my back is touching a wall. "What if you were only mine?" I stare up into his deep, cold blue eyes. I wouldn't break, I wouldn't be swayed by this arrogant asshole, I wouldn't be taken down again. "Well," I finally say, "then I would tell you..." I stand on my tippy toes and reach his ear, "to go to hell." I stand back down onto my feet as I walk out his door with my head held high. #1 in Mafia 1/12/22!!! #1 in Powerful 4/24/22! #2 in Marriage 1/9/24 #4 in Don 3/27/23 #1 in Runaway 7/19/22! #1 in Humor 10/29/21! #1 in Badass 3/30/22! #13 in Love 10/30/21 #1 in Billionaire 12/21/22! #2 in Arrogant 1/9/24 #8 in Possessive 1/13/23

After a drunken one night stand, Stevie never thought that she would have to see the mistake that turned her into a cheater again. But when she discovers that the mistake is not only her soon-to-be Stepfather's brother but also her new college professor, she can't runaway any longer. The forbidden fruit that is Ethan Clifford has just become so much more tempting. This is a mature story with mature themes, swearing and plenty of smut. It is not intended for readers under the age of 18. It is also completely unedited so if you comment on this, it would make you worse than my grammar (Jokes :P). This story is a bit of fun and a work of fiction to be enjoyed as it is and not to be taken too seriously.
