COMING SOON
Bronte Nephus is a greek goddess, or so they say. She comes from a line of Greek descendants so naturally she would be an heiress herself. But in reality, she's far from it. Underneath her glowing exterior is a past filled with hurt and betrayal. After a fateful night of almost ending her life and witnessing something she shouldn't, she's captured by a man with a lot of power. What Bronte didn't know was that he'd cause her more pain than she'd ever felt before.
Giovanni Black is a notorious, cold-hearted mafia leader. His name is not one that many people mention, and if they do, they disappear for eternity. He protects his own but nothing more. If you double-cross him, he'll kill you faster than you can blink. After a woman witnesses his devious actions, he's forced to take it upon himself to keep her quiet. With an intention of killing her, he finds it difficult to go through with it.
Will Bronte escape from Giovanni? Or will she stay and open her heart? And maybe even fall in love with her kidnapper...
