Working part time at a used books store and living in her best friend's apartment was not what Isadora had in mind when she decided to flee to Rome after her ex-fiancé let her down in a way she could never imagine.
Her heart starts to beat faster again at the moment she meets Luca, an Italian with dark eyes and messy hair, who enters in the store with a box full of letters. In those paper boxes, Isa discovers a love story from the past, but there is a catch: the ending is not written anywhere else. Wanting some answers, they leave on a journey through the cobblestone streets of the Italian capital.
On her way, Isa faces new desires, feelings, problems and insecurities.
Will she find what's she's looking for?
Or will she find something she could never expect?
Twice in Rome is a novel in which the past and the present intertwine; two love stories wrapped by the poetry of every corner of the Eternal City.
I'll upload new chapters as soon as I finish each translation.

Black Death And White Roses (1) Mafia Romance
Rox is working day and night to pay off a debt that isn't hers and provide for her minor brother and troubled father. So she cannot refuse any professional opportunity, most of all if Christian, the boss she adores, is asking her for a favor that lays outside her comfort zone. The villa they need to refurbish is beautiful, reeking of old money and the owner is very private, reclusive and... demanding. ---------- A few necessary mentions: - My books contain violence and smut; you have been warned. However (!) It's a slow burn, so don't be disappointed if they don't have crazy sex in the first chapters. They will get laid eventually just that it needs to develop first. Smut is signaled with a note at the beginning of the chapter. The book is meant for mature audience and contains lots of triggers so if you are very sensitive DO NOT read it. -This is a work of fiction and every resemblance with real-life persons or places are only a coincidence, and yada yada. -It should not be copied, but I don't think there is danger of that. 😂 Just have fun and write your own story. -English is (sadly) not my first language, not even my second. Unfortunately, there will be mistakes. Feel free to point them out; I appreciate that.Complete
