"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?

He's a former Pro-Football Player and she's a research assistant. As if that isn't an odd enough combination, throw into the mix that they used to be in-laws and things are ever-more complicated. The cherry on top is that one is repressing long-unrequited love for the other. It's a story of friendship, a sisterhood gone wrong, adjusting to changes, and well, maybe- just maybe- Love. Author's Note: I don't know what it is with this book, but I just love it to pieces, and my silly brain keeps dissecting the story and trying to figure out the different ways the story could have gone if certain plot points hadn't happened, or happened earlier, or if someone just realized that they're in a romance novel earlier (LOL)... The characters and the basic idea isn't mine, but I'm just having fun here...
