Cries of His Heart (Italian Billionaire's Heart BWWM)
Salvatore Marchetti, a 34 year old self-made billionaire, was haunted by his past. He'd been betrayed by the one he loved and adored more than anyone else; Emma Miller, who had cheated on him with his half-brother Armando Marchetti. This only added insult to injury for Salvatore; the perpetrator who had taken away his parents was someone near and dear to him, leaving him feeling alone and lost in a world of despair. The agony in his heart only escalated with each passing month, hardening his spirit and transforming him into a bitter, caustic pessimist. But then came 30 year old African American Indira Anderson. She was hired by Salvatore as a professional coder for his cyber security company, but he viewed her with disgust and contempt, believing she knew it all already. Her heart was as warm and kind as the sun while Salvatore's remained frozen as stone. With extraordinary patience and unfaltering understanding, Indira gently tried to melt Salvatore's icy walls of distrust and hesitancy around love. Will her tender kindness manage to break apart the thick walls in Salvatore's heart and will he finally be able to trust her enough to open up?Complete
