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. *** #1 in Young Adult #9 in Badboy #1 in Cold #3 in Goodgirl #1 in Sweetheart #14 in Love *** *Warning* This story contains mature themes (language, scenes)

"You are mine!" He roars. "I will do whatever it takes to make you know that. Whether it means I lock you up in a prison and throw away the key." Footsteps come rushing into the dining room, and I turn to see multiple men--guards I suppose, flanking one another. Each of their hands rest on things within their jackets. Which i can only guess are guns. What else would they be? He waves them off and stalks towards me, standing behind my chair. I try to turn my head to look behind me, at him, but his hands move to the sides of my face, stopping me. "I can give you the world Mia. I am no fool. I know that love takes time, and I will give you as much as it takes. But you are mine." He says so calmly. -------------------------- When Mia Jones, a College student from Australia with a mysterious past is offered the opportunity to work as a translator for a man she had never heard of in New York City, she had assumed it would be a normal job, little did she know it would be the end of her freedom. Matteo Giovanni is the most feared Mafia leader in New York, and the whole country, heir to the Italian Mafia, he is used to getting what he wants. And when he sees Mia walk into his office for a job interview, he knows he wants her. She is his light, and he is her darkness. Will Mia ever be able to escape Matteo and the Mafia, or will she fall in love before she can stop herself?

Lux has a past that she avoids at all costs. He did this to her. He made her the way she is. Axel, the next in line for the Thanos-Romano Family Don title, has fallen for her since he first set eyes on her. But the business is too dangerous for his precious freckles. They have been friends for years and Axel finally decides to make a move. But it seems that the universe is against them because Lux's past comes back to haunt and Axel's job makes things difficult in the form of an old enemy. While battling for happiness, a little surprise comes along. This is book two to the Mafia Duet. I recommend reading 'Guns and Roses' first because this book contains some spoilers. WARNING: 18+ Mature scenes and language. _________________________________________ EXCERPT: It wasn't until the movie ended when Lux's first whimper sounded out. Her arms tightened around mine and she pressed her face into my bicep. Her legs started to kick and she whispered out, "No, per favore. (No, please.)" Her nails started to dig into my skin, so I placed a hand to her cheek to calm her. That was the wrong move because she swung out and screamed, "Scappa! Lasciami solo! (Get away! Leave me alone!)" Her eyes were squeezed shut as she thrashed around in the bed. I gently took her wrists in my hand so she didn't hurt herself and I straddled her legs, without putting any weight, so I hovered over her. "Calm down, tesoro. (treasure.)" I placed my free hand back on her cheek and wiped away the flowing tears with my thumb. She was breathing heavy and I kissed her forehead comfortingly. "Non preoccuparti, tesoro. Ti proteggerò, (Don't worry, treasure. I'll protect you,)" I whispered to her as I brushed her hair back with my hand. _________________________________________ Start: October 5, 2018 End: August 23, 2019 Copyrighted 2019
