Larissa Donovan is one of the country's most valuable intelligence assets, working in the shadows where few know of her existence and even fewer know her real name.  When she's not working to keep the country safe, her focus is on tracking down the mobster responsible for her parents' grisly murders when she was a child.  However, after twenty years of murder and secrets, Lissa is tired.  She agrees to take one final assignment for the FBI...go undercover and get information on a college professor with ties to the same mobster she's been hunting all these years.

What starts out as a simple spy mission quickly turns into something much more complicated.  Between fighting her attraction to her target and trying to solve the mysterious connection between him and the mob, she finds herself tangled in a web of secrets and lies.  When one of those secrets leads back to her father, she realizes there was more to her parents' murder than she ever imagined.

This is the first book of a trilogy. All books must be read in chronological order as you may not understand what is happening and I will not be responsible for the caused confusion. ~~~~~~~~~ BRIELLE One night turned into a complete fiasco that seemed to haunt her to the present day. Brielle Hansley was the picture-perfect girl with perfect grades, a reserved job offer and a boyfriend who seemed perfect. At first. Her life couldn't have been any better until her sister got engaged to the man whose brother she knew better than she desired. It was only a month, she told herself. A month under the same roof and then everything would go back to normal. But as she starts to discover new secrets that seem to intertwine her life with his, she doubts she will ever be able to forget the man with whom a one-night stand seemed too good to be true. ~~~~~~~~~ NICOLAS Nicolas Salucci, the heir to the Italian Cosa Nostra was reserved and couldn't confide in anyone. It seemed like his life would continue to be as shallow and dark as his father made it to be until he met her. After overhearing a scheme which could end Nicolas's life, she demanded only a single night. One that he was tempted to give her and did. Only, he didn't think that that one night would cost him his entire heart. The woman was everything he desired and more. Yet he despised her. His father had chosen a woman for him to marry yet how could he marry someone whom he had no feelings for? As verities begin to arise, Nicolas begins to realise that maybe he only hated himself for falling for a woman he couldn't have. And a woman that quickly became his forbidden desire... ~~~~~~~~~ Warning!!! Includes explicit sexual scenes, strong language, mature content, and mentions of suicide.

The Female Bodyguard by Jing-Yi

Good pay, palace life, but the real gem that everyone covets? A chance to captivate or simply befriend the future king. However, for Larissa Fable, being entrusted to safeguard Prince Casimir Hughes appears to be one of her greatest misgivings in life. Refusing to accept a female bodyguard, Casimir vows to brew more chaos than ever, going as far as burning an apartment to cinders. However, fate takes an unexpected turn when they embark on a clandestine journey in search of a missing princess. As they venture deeper, shadows of concealed truths, some irredeemably grave, begin to surface between them. Each revelation, a crack in the façade of appearances. Larissa cannot help but find herself teetering on the edge of a precipice that threatens not just her identity, but her very life. Yet, amidst the haunting echoes of secrets, Larissa and Casimir find themselves drawn together in ways neither anticipated. A stolen glance lingers a second too long and their hearts race incomprehensibly, an illicit melody of emotions. Bound by agonising lies and a growing yet forbidden desire for one another, they stand at the edge of a treacherous and uncertain future - a place where love and fate collide in a perilous dance. ~~~ A blossoming love story between a girl with a radical dream and a reckless prince she, unfortunately, has to rely on for it to come true.    Amazing cover by @tzehleng Pictures used in banners, covers and any graphics are not owned by me, all credits belong to the owners of those images.

I can't keep the smile off my face as I take my seat on the plane. I slide my bag under the seat and lean back. I close my eyes and let a blissful smile grace my face. He said I wouldn't be able to run. As if. I'm vaguely aware of someone taking the seat next to mine, but I pay no attention to said person. "So where we headed?" I choke on my own spit as my eyes fly open and whirl around to face the owner of the familiar voice. His eyes are hidden behind those damn sunglasses and a rather smug smile graces his face. I continue choking and he does nothing other than flip through a magazine. That smug smile never leaving his face. "You still haven't answered the question." "To hell." I finally manage to choke out. "Awesome," He flips a page in the magazine, "It's about time I returned home. You know, bodies to burn, lost souls to torture, I've missed it. It'll be fun." *** Nicolette Moore.
