[COMPLETED] DISCLAIMER I wrote this book when I was a kid and it was my first time writing one so please excuse the grammatical errors and if it's not well written This book is still up because it's a comfort book to some but I wanted to put a disclaimer out there about the writing since I know it's not perfect. ____________________________________________ "You're worth more than a fucking deal, Amara." ____________________________________________ It all started with a secret deal. A deal that should have meant nothing yet meant everything. Xavier Hernandez, the Italian mafia Don. The title was given to him at a young age being only 16 and now he's carrying the weight of leading a mafia at the age of 20. He's a man who is feared by many and is known for being merciless, ruthless, strong and powerful. He would shoot you between the eyes if you dared to look at him the wrong way. His cold hearted soul has never met the warm touch of another, has never experienced the warm feeling known as love. Amara Sánchez, the Spanish mafia princess. A woman who is sarcastic yet stubborn at times. She is the youngest out of her family being the age of 18 and has a lot of responsibility in her hands as her father is the Spanish mafia Don. She is known to be kind hearted, considerate and a goddess . Her warm heart has yet to touch ones cold heart that seeks the feeling of love. Both complete opposites. What happens when opposites attract? Will it end up in heartbreak or will it lead to a new found love? What happens when the past reveals itself? What happens when the truth is revealed? What will happen when promises are broken? ____________________________________________ //tw please read book with caution// •contains sexual content• started: 14/08/21 finished: 12/12/21 #1 trauma: 29/11/21 #2 arranged marriage: 14/12/21 #3 Italian: 3/12/21 #2 badboy: 11/12/21 #3 enemiestolovers: 14/12/21 #2 alliance: 30/5/25 #4 Spanish: 23/8/25Complete
A Moment's Notice
New Orleans was alive, so was Malcolm, they were there to be loved, and he loved them all. So did William, that was something Malcolm was unaware of. He knew his Grandad was the One-Night-killer, but he never knew what role his Dad, William played on the twisted playground. Detective Thomas Sadler was undercover, he worked as a detective, but he was a seasoned military man, so was his Senior Analyst. Johnny de Marco. They were the Watchdogs, the men sent out so clean up every mess, and to put an end to any tyrant. Thomas tried, he did it all by the book, but he couldn't find the evidence he needed to put Malcolm Jnr away. Bodies were piling up, each found in a Motel, each with their eyes open, and each with something missing from their person. Malcolm believed in true love, and as long as the clock was ticking, he knew they would wait for him, where that special place was, was a mystery to him. But as long as their hearts beat, and they told him they loved him, he kept them 'alive' in the various watches he made in Timeless Antiquities. A business passed down from Malcolm Snr to his son William and in turn to his son Malcolm. When Malcolm moved into the Kirby-house, things changed, ghosts and death seemed to follow him like a bad cold, it was all over the place. The Watchdogs had a hand in the demise of Malcolm, it was all swept under the rug, by Captain Gabrielle Belmonte, Johnny's estranged wife, acting Captain, and a Watchdog. Love is blind, not quite as blind as Johnny was to the truth, to the lies, and to the fact that Gabrielle, had a hand in everything that went wrong in his life, and she was the ultimate puppeteer. Malcolm and William danced to her tune. This book is published with the express permission from the author, Nikki PaivaComplete
Shadows of the Night
"Nothing good ever came without sacrifice. Some of us just found clarity in the darkness of those shadows." *** Nyx Monroe grew up with terrifying tales of golden-eyed beasts with nightmarish fangs and murderous tendencies but as time passed, she forgot about them, convinced they were just scary stories. When her father, Azeil Monroe, is tasked with solving the murder plaguing the coastal city of Celacali, it's a chance at a fresh start. However, Nyx discovers everything is not what it seems beneath the veneer of the popular tourist location, also known as the City of the Dead. Something dark resides there-death and carnage reincarnate. Plunged into the city's shadows, Nyx stumbles into the open arms of notorious Orion, Kotori, Niko, and Kade-the boardwalk is their blood-stained domain. They've been waiting for twenty-five years to exact their revenge for a debt long overdue, luring Nyx and her father back to where it all began. Whilst they distract Azeil with one murder case after the other, their focus shifts to Nyx. Soon, there's nowhere left for her to run-to hide-from the true beasts of legend, or from the darkness of her past.Complete

The Hunters Saga #3: The Hawthorn Pearl
"THE AFTERLIFE CAN BE A REAL BITCH, RIGHT?" "Henri-" I began, but Henri's hand snatched up mine and squeezed tightly enough to break bones. I bit my tongue to hold back a cry. It was a warning. "Maria didn't say anything about a couple of vampires wanting to meet with her," the green-haired warlock spoke after the area had stilled with electrified silence. I looked Henri's way, and that's really when our situation caught up with me. Wait... "Maria..." I murmured in remembrance, then sent Henri a glare. "Why are we here to see Maria Day? If you don't remember, let me remind you that I killed her friend. Hell, her master. She'll kill me when she sees me." Henri had the nerve to laugh softly. "You're already dead, Antoinette." "Thanks to you. There are other ways witches can hurt vampires, aren't there?" My eyes traveled shortly to the warlocks, Daniel and Zachary, and I shook my head. "She'll burn me alive! I'm not going in there." "You're overacting," Henri said with a dramatic eye roll with a worth of a slap across his face. Lucky for him, I kept my hands at my sides. This night was about to get dangerous... This is Book 3 of The Hunters Saga! 1st draft, so there WILL be mistakes! Cover thanks to @AlexandraSinclair1! *Rated PG-13 for thematic peril and angst, rude humor, mild language, occasional innuendo and sensuality, and graphic imagery in some places.
