Start reading and see how hot it gets. She's a wild, free spirit who sees the good in everyone, and he's the hardened, bad-tempered loner who wants nothing to do with her-yet no matter how hard he tries to push her away, she's the one temptation he can't escape. *** He's never met someone with such a bubbly personality. Not to mention the wildness and odd phrases she says every five minutes. He hates it. He hates how he can't stay away from it. He hates what she does to him; it's not like him to chase after some girl. She gets under his skin like no other. She's never met someone with such a bad attitude. He's ill-mannered and menacing. The glare never seems to leave his face. Considering it all, she can't help but feel the attraction toward him. Dangerous attraction toward a seemingly dangerous man. Maybe it's the tattoos on his arm that gets her attention. Or maybe it's because she can tell there's hope for good under his rough exterior. And she's about to find it, whether he likes it or not. It's no secret that the two of them are complete and total opposites. *** "You like being called Sugar, don't you?" I tease, placing my toothbrush back after finishing. He does the same and gives me a side-eyed scowl. He grips my chin harshly and kisses me. My body temperature raises a good ten degrees and my right leg goes all wiggly. He pulls away. "You like it when I kiss you, don't you?" He teases the same way I did to him and I'm left blubbering. "I think both of our questions are rhetorical," I lower my voice up at him. His lip curls up into a smirk. *** *Warning* This story contains mature themes (language, scenes)

"Angels and demons often meet in the bodies of mortals." Nadia wasn't one for an easy way out. That wasn't how she had been trained- how she survived. But, one regretful job later, she finds herself in deeper sh!t than usual, with no clear route out. You see, when an assassin falls into the hands of the Italian mafia, with another mafia on her ass, things could only get more complicated from there. And with Nadia at the helm, they undoubtedly do. ~ "You're going to be the death of me, Piccola," he murmured huskily, lowering his lips dangerously close to her neck. Her breath hitched as his nose dragged its way up, his lips hovering inches away from the sweet spot on her neck. "Believe me," Nadia murmured breathlessly, "it's a mutually assured destruction." ~ •Complete!• •First Draft• #1 in Mob 06/02/22 #1 in Female Assassin 29/09/21 #1 in Femmefatale 03/09/21 WARNING This book is going to handle sensitive subject matters, contain swearing and violence from the start and chapters and moments that may not be suitable for younger readers.
