Jessi Harper isn't your typical Mafia asset. He's the Italian Mafia's most prized escort-sharp-tongued, untouchable, and always dressed to kill. Fiercely loyal but wild at heart, Jessi plays the game on his own terms. He's used to being wanted, used to being watched... but not like this. Not by him. Derick Marino leads the Mafia like a god-cold, feared, and always in control. He doesn't bend. He doesn't break. And he definitely doesn't get distracted by the Mafia's flirtatious plaything. At least, that's the story he tells himself every time Jessi walks into the room with that maddening smile and a strut that demands attention. He's the king. Jessi's the spark. And their chemistry? A ticking time bomb. Derick says he's straight. Jessi's made a career out of teasing men like him. But what happens when teasing turns into tension that won't go away? When stolen glances become something more? And when the most forbidden thing becomes the one thing neither of them can resist? This isn't just a fling. It's a war between desire and denial-and someone's going to lose control. --- Sneak Peek: My back arched, teeth sinking into the pillow as the sound of skin meeting skin echoed around the candlelit room. I was a mess-sweaty, breathless, wrecked. Exactly how he liked me. Then I felt his hand in my hair, rough and demanding, yanking me back just enough to hear his voice-low, dangerous, and right against my ear. "I'm going to fuck you until every candle in this room burns out." --- Note: This is a BL (Boys' Love) dark romance with a whole lot of tension, complicated feelings, and two men who should know better-but don't stop anyway. Perfect for readers who like their stories messy, magnetic, and just a little bit dangerous.

Billy knows the rules; win, take what he wants, burn the rest. But Harrington draws blood, and Billy sets himself on fire. It was always gonna end like this.

He wakes up months later, after going through a number of surgeries due to the chunk the creature had taken out of him, wishing he died. He is then kept within a facility, under the watchful eye of scientists, to determine whether the creature still resides within him or not. It can't possibly get any worse than this... Until Steve Harrington offers to come along. Not because he wants to spend time with the guy, no, but because he can't stand seeing Max worried about how they would treat him. He figures his parents won't miss him anyway and the procedure will only take a few weeks. What could go wrong? They end up being roommates for a little while. With Billy being even colder than usual and Steve being all the more annoying, spurred on by Billy's attitude, how will they ever pass the time and survive through each other's company?
