Forced into a marriage neither of them wanted, a fierce Greek mafia princess and a ruthless Sicilian underboss must navigate a storm of power, passion, and betrayal-only to discover that their greatest battle might be against their own hearts. *** They hated each other from the moment they met, but little did they know, they were destined to be together. Millicent Rhea Darmos: Princess of the Greek Mafia. At 25 years old, she's established herself as a self proclaimed boss bitch, running her own publishing company. But now it's time she fulfils her duty to her family's organisation. It's time she gets married. Costantino Salvatore Accardi: Underboss and Heir to the Sicilian Mafia. At 28 years old, he has no interest in settling down-he already has it all. He believes in family above all, so why bring in an outsider? Yet, after a strange string of events, the two of them find themselves thrust into married life. It's full of chaos, drama and all kinds of tension. The question is, how do they survive their marriage and the storm that follows? *** "I've never kissed anyone." My voice trembled with a tinge of vulnerability - something I hated. But Costa didn't seem to mind that I was nervous or anxious. "Good. You're mine." He spoke so seriously, without a flicker of doubt as he took my hand in his. "So you want it be special, principessa?" "Every girl's first kiss is special." I whispered, watching as he brought my hand up to his lips. "I only care about yours."

"Why the hell was he touching you?" Ryder snaps, grabbing a hold of my wrist and ripping me away from Jonathan. I glared at him, pushing Ryder's hands off me even though my body craved for his touch. "I'm not yours anymore," I weakly say, watching as his blue eyes stare at me intently. He leans down, his breath tickling my skin as his lips gently brush my ear. Pleasant shivers dance along my spine as I try to focus on my breathing. "You will always be mine," He smirks against my skin, gently pushing me out of the way as he walks towards Jonathan, his muscles tensed. I gulped down the butterflies that formed in my stomach, a small smile creeping to my lips at the thought of me being his. But I couldn't be his, not again. ♡ Emma Windsor never wanted to see Ryder Jones again. But with his cocky smirk, striking blue eyes and gorgeous body, he was hard to resist.

His infuriating nature paired with his golden charm makes Julian a formidable enemy, but Isa is determined to take him down. A little healthy competition never hurt anyone, right? As they begin spending more time with one another, Isa unwittingly starts to realise that Julian may not be as bad as she once thought. Strangely, he's always there when she needs someone and believes in her like no one ever has before. Isa can't shake the terrifying feeling that things are changing between them, but for better or for worse, she can't decide. Love is (not) easy. [1st in #hatetolove - 26/5/19]
