(Book 1 of the Mafia standalone series) "Do you need anything?" I ask, turning to Jeremy even though my voice trembles. Jeremy throws his head back against the cushions and smiles. "Keep speaking," he says, eyes half-lidded but glowing. I blink. "What do you want me to say?" "I'm so happy I was shot" he murmurs, grinning up at the ceiling like a lunatic. My mouth drops open. "If I'd known hearing that gorgeous voice would require a few bullets" he adds, "I would've taken them sooner. Happily." Heat crawls up my neck. "Keep talking, or I'll pass out" he threatens lightly, waving a limp hand in my direction. I roll my eyes, but I can't help smiling. "Jeremy Romano, don't pass out on me." His eyes fly open as if someone electrocuted him. "Say that again" he says, suddenly wide awake. "Don't pass out on me?" I repeat cautiously. "No" he breathes. "The two words before that." I frown. "Jeremy Romano?" His reaction is immediate, his smile brightens until it practically lights the whole room. "Say it again" he whispers. "Jeremy Romano." He lets out a dreamy groan. "I'll die a happy man." I slap his arm. Harder than I should've. He winces and I instantly panic. "I'm so sorry!" "Kiss it. I'll feel better," he says, smirking.

#1 in MeandYou (June 14, 2025) #5 in QuietBoy (July 9, 2025) #4 in Quirky (Feb. 24, 2026) Before I can help it, I grin ear to ear, and his softened gaze starts to fade. His eyes narrow into slits, "Don't you dare-" "What do you call a fish wearing a bowtie?" Instantly, Sawyer frowns, an unimpressed expression on his face. I smile, grabbing his cheeks and squishing them, "Don't make that face!!! C'mon, you gotta ask!! What do you call a fish wearing a bowtie?" Glaring, he mutters, "We're not doing this shit, Mari-" "Yes, we are!!" I let go of his face, "You ready?!!" "No." "I'm gonna say it." "You better not-" "SoFISHticated." "You're an idiot." ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ *Long Story* (Under the process of being rewritten/editted, OGs know what's up) Senior year is coming up, and things seem normal. Friends are doing the usual, family is, well...familying, and life is as is. But after a chance encounter at a thrift shop, everything changes in a matter of seconds. What happens when a broody boy meets a bubbly girl who suddenly brings color to a world where he thought had permanently lost it? Well two things occur: 1 - He isn't coping well, a little upset about it honestly. And 2 - He can't stop thinking about HER. And to make it all the worse, she's suddenly everywhere. Even at school. Started August 2023 - ????

Fragment: "Unexpectedly, your mother became pregnant once again. We were extremely happy about it, but once the doctor said that it is a girl, I was euphoric. I rushed to tell the news to the Russo and the alliance was confirmed on the same day. Your mother was very unhappy about my decision and now I understand why."- finished papa. I took a moment to register the information. I am that promised girl. I am the one who has to marry. Leonardo Vincenzo Russo - austere, merciless, ruthless, vile Capo of Italian Mafia. Man of devilishly sinful beauty, wealth and power that know no bounds. He doesn't take no for an answer. He takes and never gives. Diavolo. Fire burns in his veins. Camila Emilia Reyes - courteous, sensitive, loving, winsome, tender, benevolent and compassionate woman, who has grit, wittiness and power burning in her. Woman of enrapturing comeliness, who has heart of gold. She has power, fame, fortune. Stuck in arrangement, they have no choice, but to get married. Will it work when two hearts have never known love and passion, faith and devotion, attraction and desire?

Filled with dreams and hopes, Mia was a girl who fiercely believed in love. But years spent in a loveless marriage slowly dimmed the brightness she once had, taking away everything her heart had to give until there was nothing left. Her husband, a man who awoke her love without the intention of loving her back, wove illusions, abusing and manipulating Mia until there was nothing but a shadow of the girl she was before. When Mia was finally given the chance to return to her hometown, a place she had always longed for, it seemed like the salvation she desperately needed. Or she thought so until Noah, a man with a soul as deep as the ocean, awoke something inside Mia, something that began to burn brighter than she ever thought possible.
