Accardi Obsession unravels a dark, multi-POV mafia story charged with forbidden chemistry, explosive family tensions, and an arranged-marriage pact that turns sworn enemies into something far more dangerous. *** The Sicilians trusted them.

And when a new marriage alliance is proposed, one Accardi makes the ultimate sacrifice, and enemies become lovers... or whatever you call it when hate gets complicated. There's a war brewing, a wedding on the calendar, and at least four people pretending they're not in love. The Accardis are back. Pray for whoever stands in their way.

My breath hitched, the moment he held my wrist to stop me, his grip so light as if he was holding something made of feathers. He pleaded, looking down at his feet, "Then... take me, Ava, to where sinners go. But please take me yourself. So, I can be with you, just for a second more." His voice turned so soft at the end, just a whisper, for a moment, I thought I had only imagined him saying that. That was probably the most I've ever heard him say. Please don't make me doubt my decisions. It's best to stay away from you. I'm not strong enough to face the loss again when it comes. ______________________________ People look at their feet when he is standing in front of them. Salvatore Agosti, the man who was a mystery from the very beginning, they only know him to be a multibillionaire, that's all, no records, no evidence and no witnesses against him. Until now.

The feather-like Avalyn, the ex-wife he divorced without ever being involved with, in any way. A marriage is just in name. Well, he can only hope he doesn't regret his life decisions and fall headfirst for this little ball of energy. Or maybe he already does? #11 in mystery-thriller #2 in apology

Maggie thought she was content with her serviceable marriage, but when a new neighbor awakens the hidden passion inside of her, she must make an impossible choice: risk it all and follow her heart or lose her brother forever. Season 1 of In My Neighbor's Bed *** Maggie Henderson is a housewife living in your typical picture-perfect suburb. A handsome husband, friendly neighbors, and a peaceful life. What more could a girl ask for? Too bad it's all a lie. In reality, her husband is a manipulative jerk who uses a prenup and her terminally ill brother to keep her from leaving, her neighbors are as fake as a three-dollar bill, and her "peaceful life" is actually boring as hell. But that all changes when the new guy, Mason Kendall, moves in across the street. What starts as a sexy game soon turns into a full-fledged affair. But as feelings bloom beneath the surface, the stakes in their little game become higher than ever before. What will she choose? A new life with her lover? Or the life of her dying brother? *** "You're going to kill me at this rate," he grumbled. I had to repress a giggle as I feigned ignorance. "What do you mean? Am I too heavy? Should I get off?" "Don't worry, I'll take care of getting you off," he murmured, sliding his hands under my shirt.

His imperturbable composure only ever seems to crack when it comes to sweet, little Giselle Sinclair.

The Accardi family is back. And this time, it's Rocco's turn. At 30 years old, Rocco Accardi is known for a lot of things-his temper, his recklessness, his complete disregard for consequences. As the future underboss of Sicily's most feared family, he was never meant to feel anything. Until her. Alessia Russo, 26, Palermo's top real estate agent, has spent the past three years keeping things strictly professional. Which is hard to do when your most dangerous client spends every meeting flirting like it's a sport-and you've had a crush on him since day one. He's chaos. She's control. Their relationship was never meant to cross the line. But one wrong step-and everything spirals. Rocco doesn't know how to love. But he knows how to destroy. And once he decides she's his, he'll burn the city before he lets her go. Something is coming. And nothing will be the same after it hits.
