Since he left the love of his life to take over the mafia his brother turned down. He's the shell of the person he used to be, he feels he's lost himself forever. 🌹✨🌺 "You're so beautiful." He grins leaning down to peck my lips. "You're glowing with happiness. You have no idea how honored I feel to be able to put that smile on your face." I feel my cheeks heat at the compliment as I melt into the mattress. "Your smile was the first thing I fell in love with. Then it was your eyes and your laugh." Him staring down at me with such intensity has my heart beating wildly against my rib cage. His hands gently cup my face, "I never fell out of love you with you, Violet, but everyday I can't help but fall all over again." 🌹✨🌺 "Baby talk to me." Aless snaps me out of my thoughts as he slowly inches closer to me. His arms hesitantly grab my face and wipe away my tears. "Bad dream." I whisper sniffling. "He had me." My heart breaks just thinking about it. "And he hurt them." The way his eyes darken with rage show me he knows who I'm taking about. He looks down to my stomach, his eyes soften as he lays two kisses in the middle. "I'm going to kill him." His words should scare me, instead they make me feel protected.

What happens when they're forced to collide? *** After an injury nearly derailed his basketball career, UCLA senior Charlie Murtaugh has one last shot at going pro. Desperate to get back on scouts' radar, he agrees to be the subject of a feature article in the campus paper. What he doesn't expect? Getting assigned a nervous, basketball-illiterate sophomore who clearly wants nothing to do with him. Lorraine Perabo didn't sign up for this. Her first assignment as a journalism intern was supposed to be low-key, not shadowing the most talked-about athlete on campus. Charlie is cocky, intense, frustratingly charming... and completely off-limits. But as forced interviews turn into real conversations-and sparks-they find themselves relying on each other more than either expected. And when hearts get involved, they realise there are no rules when it comes to the matters of the heart.
