Red Easton is on the brink of becoming one of New York's most successful young CEOs. The intense, stone-faced thirty-four-year-old built a cybersecurity company valued at over $1.2 billion. The success of the company overshadows any suspicions regarding Red's lack of formal education or background in technology. The road he paved here is for his eyes only, and none of his investors seem too concerned as long as the money keeps rolling in.

But when the murder of an old contact threatens to jeopardize Red's ability to remain unattached to his past life, will he be able to keep his worlds separate or are they bound to collide in a dangerous, bloody battle?

Emory Logan is struggling to find her place in Chicago, the only city she's ever known. At twenty-six-years-old, she decides to set out for New York City. She can create a new start. No one would suspect the curvy beauty to be from the roughest part of Chicago. 
 
But when an opening for a personal assistant position at New York's hottest cybersecurity company lands her in an interview with Chicago's disappeared bad boy, she realizes her attempt at a new start may have landed her right back where she started. Or worse.

"Everyone knew him as the sexy, cold-hearted young CEO. They assumed his dark eyes and controlling demeanor were symptoms of an unyielding passion for success. But I knew him before his meteoric rise. I know the real darkness lurking behind his eyes."

Standalone mafia billionaire romance.
50,000 to 70,000 words.

Mia Regina (#1) by reetilicious

(BOOK 1 OF MAFIA LOVE SERIES) [COMPLETED & EDITING] * "Arie," he whispered, his smile dropping as he closed the distance between us. "I'm sor..." My right hand met his left cheek brutally, stopping all that he had to say. "How dare you?" I hissed, landing another smack on the same spot. "How could you do this to me?" I raised my hand up again to place another one, but he caught my wrist before I could do so. "Plan your next move very carefully," he spoke in a low, belligerent tone tightening his grip on my wrist, daring me to slap him again. Pain jolted from the area, forcing tears to sting at the corner of my eyes. "Or what?" I scowled at him. "You don't want to find out." He took a step closer, staring into my eyes. "And don't tempt me!" * Today was the day it all started. Everything began to fall apart. It twisted me, threw me against the wall, and ripped my sanity and innocence to shreds.

This is book two in the Lost&Found Series but can be read as a stand alone. *** I heard the bag drop on the table before he grabbed my elbow and spun me around. His hand cupped my chin as he made me look in his eyes. "So much anger, piccola raggazza." he said as his eyes darted back and forth between mine. My lips parted as I looked in his grey orbs which he inherited from his father. Sharp, defined jaw and pointy noise with his upper lip thin and bottom, thick. "I'm not angry at you. Your presence and absence are of little importance to me." I stated and looked away. "You grew up in my arms, I know you like the back of my hand." he told as his thumb applied pressure on my jaw to tilt my face towards his. I blinked and looked at him blankly not wanting to give away the fact that I was literally melting in his arms like a puddle. "You're not worthy of my any emotion or feeling. You're mistaken if you think I care." I stated in a matter of factly tone. *** Returning home after four years, Sylvia Mancini will encounter a lot more than she has anticipated.
