An opportunity will arise in which these two will have to work as a team for an unimaginable amount of money that can bring the biggest of enemies, together. Her name is- "Why am I here, Santino?" I asked him before taking a sip of my double espresso. He chuckled softly "You'll see." "I don't like that stupid chuckle you carry around, it means you're plotting-" I ran out of words when I saw the woman hopping off an SUV. "What the fuck is she doing here?" I shot a glare at Santino. "I have a job for the two of you," he said as he stood up. "No," I stood up and she stopped in front of the table where we were sitting. "I'm not working with this snake," I pointed at her. "Hi, Ilya." ------ This book can stand on its own but I would recommend you to read Mrs. Mafia and Code Name: Athena, first. 🚨 mature content!

We've all heard about 'the main character'. The type of person who lives through the most dramatic and improbable situations, and finds the kind of epic romance you only see in works of fiction. Which makes you think about how unrealistic love like that is. I used to think the same thing until I met him. Until I met 'the bad boy' that, as it turns out, wasn't that bad at all, just simply...a boy. A boy with an easy smile, a charming personality and looks so enticing that I couldn't keep my eyes off of him if I tried. A boy whose shoulders were starting to slump with the weight of his past and his family. A boy who believed that the only way to survive was by putting a lock on his heart and chaining it down to a place so deep inside of him that no one could ever reach it again. A boy who, for reasons I'll never comprehend, placed the key inside my palm and didn't shy away when I tried to free his hidden heart from its restraints. A boy who made me the main character of my own story. A story I never want to forget, and which begged to be put on paper. This is that story. ~~~ #1 love triangle 8/26/2019 #1 teen romance 11/4/2019 #1 mystory 7/27/2020 #1 teen drama 9/9/2020 #1 goodgirl 9/12/2020 Cover by @alexandramar1e Contains swearing and mature language.

[NOW TRADITIONALLY PUBLISHED WORLDWIDE] "A life of happiness would be hell on earth." • When Grace finally decided to end her life, the last thing she expected was to meet a stranger simply gazing at the stars, dangling his feet over the edge of the bridge, exactly where she had planned to jump into the abyss and end it all. What was supposed to be the last hour of Grace's life becomes the hour in which she poured her drunken, broken heart out to a stranger over a bottle of scotch and a fresh round of tears. However, before they parted their ways, the stranger offered her a deal: she must promise to hold on to her life for another seventeen days, and afterwards, she could do with it whatever she'd like. He promise to even attend her funeral if he couldn't change her mind. But why seventeen days? And why did this stranger even care? There was more to him than what met the eye, and compelled by her own curiosity, Grace couldn't refuse. Maybe these seventeen days will only prolong her suffering. Or maybe they'll open her eyes to a part of life she never knew existed, full of hope for a brighter future. And maybe, just maybe, she'll learn to fall in love. • [FEATURED UNDER NEW ADULT, YOUNG ADULT, GENERAL FICTION, HUMOR & ROMANCE] • [Extended summary inside] [Started: 1 February'2020] [Finished: 24 January'2021] ©️prettyimbecile
