** WATTYS 2018 WINNER ** Big Tech meets Die Hard in this techno-thriller Kirkus Reviews calls "a clever, spirited tale with a brainy, nimble heroine at the helm." From IndieReader's 5-star (highest rating) review: "Bond weaves an entertaining tale filled with deceit, robots, Russians, and tech entrepreneurs that all combine to give the reader a reason to flip pages furiously to find out what might happen next." Deb Bollinger has no time for corporate training. Her company's top engineer at just twenty-seven, Deb has blocked off her day for the one project she truly cares about: the launch of Carebnb, an app that finds spare beds for the homeless. When she's told all employees must drop everything for some busywork exercise called Blackquest 40, it's an easy no. Trouble is, her bosses aren't really asking. Blackquest 40 is the mother of all corporate trainings. A near-impossible project to be completed in forty straight hours. No phones. No internet. Sleeping on cots. Nobody in, nobody out. Deb finds the whole setup creepy and authoritarian. When a Carebnb issue necessitates her leaving the office, she heads for the door. What's the worst that could happen? Armed commandos, HVAC-duct chases, a catastrophic master plan that gets darker by the hour - Blackquest 40 is a fresh take on the Die Hard formula, layering smart-drones and a modern heroine onto the classic action tale. Cover design and illustration by Ethan Scott.

"Bambola," Lorenzo warned," Put the spoon down. I'm scared shitless" He taunted. "Vaffanculo," I snarled (Fūck you) He chuckled," You already have." Taking my spoon armed hand, he lowered it. His touch made me feel weak at knees. Stupid Lorenzo. "Get out Lorenzo," I growled," You are not wanted here." "Come back to me, cioccolato ," He whispered looking me straight into my eyes. It's something I haven't seen in a while. His eyes were pleading and somewhat sincere. He quickly hid them leaving me looking into lifeless steel grey eyes. "No," Before I realized what was happening, he had a fist full of my hair. I groaned in pain. "You want me drag you out bombola?" He let out a low growl. "Fucking try culo(ass)" I kneed him in the crotch. ∆============∆ ❝For They Had A Love No One Can Understand.❞ Highest Rank: #5 in Romance Cover By @hindering Not Edited Excuse The Grammatical Errors Mature Readers. 16+ If You No Like It, Then You No Read It!

COMPLETED. R-RATED MATURE CONTENT. STEAMY. "I'm your property now, aren't I?" I let out in a hiss. I didn't know where that defiance had suddenly come from, but I relished in the feeling. And the narrowing of his blazing eyes and the slight twitch of his lips gave me the answer that I needed. "Welcome to the mafia, signorina." - Lies. Lust. Deception. In the somber world of 1924's Italian mafia, only the strongest can survive. Beneath the upbeat glamor of the Roaring Twenties in New York City, with its glittery feathers and blood-red lips and fancy cocktails, there lies a twisted world that the ritzy population knows nothing about. Suddenly, poverty-ridden Antonia is thrown into the turbulent reality of violence and deception that lies within one of the most feared mafia families on the East Coast: the Berettis. And what's worse is the sudden take of interest in her of every member in that damned family. Including that of the revered and dangerous Marco Beretti, son of the Don. But then, Antonia realizes that her part in this mafia is much, much bigger than she'd ever expected. And it may just cost her her life. - THIS STORY IS RATED MATURE.
