*UNDER MAJOR EDITING* Book #1 of The Mafia Leaders Series Jules Salvatore knows what it means to be afraid. To run from trauma and pain. And she never wanted to feel that way again. So after two years of fight training, she's back and she's better than ever. Now when word gets out about her winning streak, Jules is recruited by a dangerous man in need of her skills. But when she accepts, she doesn't realize just how dangerous he is with not only his body, but his soul as well... Ace Montgomery was not someone you fucked around with. As the Mafia Leader, he was cold. Dangerous. Murderous. He had the power to take it all away and the power to give it back. He was untouchable...at least that's what they said. When the past comes back to haunt the present, Ace is forced to bring in some fresh new help. So imagine his surprise when the "help" is an experienced woman who frustrates, yet seduces, his every being. But, damn it all, he'd rather fight this attraction than submit to an independent woman like her. ⚠️Warning⚠️ This book was written when I was a freshman in High School. It is being rewritten and will hopefully be improved soon!
