Arabella Malik, the lethal American mob boss's daughter. The beauty of the nineteen-year-old was well-known. Her hourglass figure and glowing grey eyes-which mirrored her father's, had practically everyone praising the ground she walked on. Arabella was a sweet, soft-hearted woman. Although she was also recognised as the best assassin and seductress in the underworld. Not only did her appearance attract men and women's notice, but she also managed to capture the attention of her father's business partner's son. Roman Agnello, the heir to the Italian Mafia. The twenty-year-old was every bit as ruthless as everyone alleged he was. Like his soul, his heart was cold and empty. Roman had no emotions or feelings for anything or anyone. But that all changed when his gaze fell on the seductress herself. And when he discovered the forbidden fruit, his soul begged him to take a bite. ~ ~ Highest Rankings #4 ChickLit - NOV 2021 #1 College Student - JAN 2022 #1 Forbidden Romance - JULY & OCT 2022 #2 Teen Romance - SEP 2022
