"Keep fighting me, Principessa, and I will throw you over my shoulder and carry you out myself." Gianna Vitale thought the fall of her father meant freedom. She was wrong. Now living under the iron-fisted protection of her brother-in-law, Don Alessio Gravelli, she is the mafia's most protected-and isolated-princess. But the walls of the estate can't keep every monster out. When a brutal kidnapping attempt leaves her childhood bodyguard dead, Alessio assigns her a new shadow: Adriano Santano. He is thirty-one, built for war, and lethal in a way that terrifies her. To him, Gianna isn't a person; she's an assignment. A high-maintenance liability he has to watch 24/7. But Adriano isn't just a bodyguard. He is a man with a secret agenda, laser-focused on a goal that has nothing to do with saving her life. He is playing a dangerous game, and Gianna is the pawn he didn't expect to want. Every forced touch, every late night, every moment he stands between her and death blurs the line between his duty and his desire. He is the only thing standing between her and a bullet.

"Tell me." He whispered, voice husky with amusement. "If I take this dress off of you and touch you here." His thumb traced slow circles over the tightening nub, rubbing gently, deliberately making it harder. "Would you be wet, Олонок?" Heat surged through me like wildfire. My breath hitched before I could stop it. My lips parted, and instinctively, I bit down on my lower lip, tasting my own flesh. His thumb continued its torturous dance over the areola, small circles that became firmer, coaxing every nerve to attention. I could feel the skin puckering under his touch, my body betraying me in slow, shuddering responses. I wanted to pull away, to stand, to breathe but the grip of his gaze held me captive. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Elara Sinclair came to Maryville to disappear.
