Book 2 of the accardi series Can be read as a standalone - but I recommend reading the don saved me first ~ "What're you thinking about?" Asher asks, pushing my hair away from my face. "Just that... I was in a crisis of searching for the truth, but look where it led me. To you." ~ 𝐄𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐞𝐥𝐥𝐚 𝐀𝐜𝐜𝐚𝐫𝐝𝐢, a 20 year old assassin for her mother and fathers mafia - top assassin actually. She's searching for the truth on her biological mother, if she's alive, if she ran away, what happened to her, anything she can possibly find. Her parents told her the truth, but it was only what they knew. 𝐀𝐬𝐡𝐞𝐫 𝐁𝐥𝐚𝐢𝐧𝐞, a 21 year old guard in need of money. He takes this job as a guard despite knowing it could be dangerous. What he doesn't know is it is dangerous, there's no chances or risks it just is. He knows he works for some rich man too, but doesn't know the monster that he is - and happens to be Estrella's biological dad. Estrella hates Asher the moment she sees him, figuring if he works for this monster he's just the same. Asher would have no clue why she'd hate him up until he learns Arsenio's true colors, who he truly is. Things go too far one day when Estrella's searching for the truth, Asher swooping in to help her. She finally learns he's not a horrible person like her biological father is, teaming up with Asher as he knows more than she does. With truths hidden, people to find, fucked up chemistry, this surely has to be a happy love story. Totally... ~ "Ich liebe dich, Erdbeere," I murmur against her lips, secretly revealing something I'm too scared to tell her yet. "I love you too, Asher." I freeze, wondering how the hell she knew I said that. "You know German?" I pull away, embarrassed but the fact that she said I love you back also has me reeling. "I know lots of languages, Asher." She giggles, pulling me back to her lips. "Now, keep kissing me."
