So who in their fucking mind would be stupid enough to cross me? My brother and I have been wrongfully convicted of a crime we didn't commit. We know who is behind this. We bid our time behind bars, planned and prepared for the day we got out. Now we're free and hungry for redemption. I know what must be done. I know whose blood will be spilled. But before I go after him, I'll go after his daughter. I never said I play fair. *Book one in the Marino Brothers Duet. Rated 18+ due to explicit language, sex, and violence.*

(𝘉𝘖𝘖𝘒 𝘖𝘕𝘌 𝘐𝘕 𝘛𝘏𝘌 𝙁𝙍𝘼𝘾𝙏𝙐𝙍𝙀𝘿 𝘛𝘙𝘐𝘓𝘖𝘎𝘠) [IN NEED OF HEAVY EDITING] εꨄ︎з 𝐌𝐀𝐄𝐕𝐄 𝐍𝐘𝐒𝐓𝐑𝐎𝐌 has always been the girl who sees the good before the bad; She trusts too easily, forgives too quickly, and believes people are capable of becoming better than their worst mistakes. It's a dangerous way to live when the ones smiling beside you are often the first to twist the knife. After all, the underworld doesn't reward kind hearts. It devours them. 𝐒𝐈𝐋𝐀𝐒 𝐋𝐔𝐃𝐎𝐕𝐈𝐂𝐎 doesn't believe in good people. Feared across the crime world for his ruthlessness, he's spent years building a reputation no one dares question. Violence has always come easier than trust, and mercy has never earned anyone a throne. Years ago, a chance meeting with a girl whose smile didn't belong in his world should've been forgettable. Instead, she became the one face he couldn't ignore. He was taught everyone had a weakness. He never imagined she'd become his. εꨄ︎з STARTED: DECEMBER 18, 2021 ENDED: AUGUST 6, 2022 Book by; @SabrinaA_writes

Even though she's a mother and has a soft spot for her daughter, she continues to be the assassin that many fear. Elijah, now a coldhearted leader, has had a hole in his heart since the day Serenity walked out of the room where they both signed divorce papers. He didn't know it then but from the moment the pen hit the paper, he made the biggest mistake of his life, letting go of the one woman that kept him on his feet. She hasn't been with any other man since him. He hasn't been with any other woman since her. Yet one day, two years later, their paths cross again. All of the moments they've shared together come back to them. Will Serenity and Elijah be able to give to their relationship a second chance?

The Mafia Heirs #1 Azalea "Lea" Romano is a lethal assassin driven by one goal: avenging her parents' murder. Precise and merciless, she has spent years erasing every name tied to their deaths. Her path collides with Enzo De Luca, the cold and Don of the Italian Mafia. Ruthless and morally unbound, Enzo rules through fear, strategy, and blood-where mercy is a weakness he cannot afford. Forced into an uneasy alliance, Lea and Enzo-both shaped by violence and buried trauma-begin to fracture each other's carefully built control. In a world where power is bought with blood, emotions may prove deadlier than any enemy.

Never in a million years did I think I would cross paths with him again. Michael Woods. The boy who broke my heart. The boy who picked hockey over me. The boy who left me behind. After giving three years of my life to him, it was all over after his college graduation. He went his way and I went mine. But I never imagined landing a job at his agency when I moved to Boston four years later, let alone as his assistant. A job that's meant for me to service him, do as he asks, and give him all smiles. So, I play the part. I play the nice, kind, sweet assistant in public and ignore him like my life depends on it in private. The thought of getting close to him again terrifies me because I know. I know that once I let him again, I'll never be able to let him out. And if I do, it'll be at the cost of my heart, and this time he'll leave it broken beyond repair. I used to think he was forever mine. But hockey changed everything. What would he do now if he had to make that choice? Me? Or hockey? Or both? . . .
