180 Days by marshaofficial

Book #2 (Tainted Scars Series) "Where am I? Who the hell are you?" He stared at me from across the room, "knowing my name is useless and dangerous." I clutched the blanket closer to my naked body as he stood up slowly. "What do you want?" "It's simple... I'm going to fuck you. Trust me, you'll love it so much...you'll be screaming my name when he is inside you." Athena wakes up to find a familiar sexy man staring at her from across an unfamiliar bedroom. The last thing she remembers is walking home after having dinner with Kitten for her birthday. Everything is a blur after that. After questioning the mystery man, she quickly learns he is Satoni Romano. She also learns that she is far away from home. She is no longer in New York, she's in California. Satoni is the biggest mafia leader in the country and he is feared by all. He promises her brother that he will not harm Athena in any way. He doesn't want a problem with the Vintalli family because his problem is with Vain. He tells her that she will spend 6 months with him. When that six months is over, he will set her free...well after he fucks her. Satoni is far from gentle and he won't deal with Athena's temper. She goes against him just to piss him off and it works every time. Athena's 180-day count down begins.

Found in Darkness by LJRae0328

A crime boss struggles to carry out a vendetta after he falls for the spirited daughter of his enemy. ***** Twenty-two years after his parents were killed, Federico Di Maggio returns to New York with a simple plan: take down the man who betrayed his family. What he didn't plan on was Elenora Borelli, the enigmatic and fiery daughter of his enemy. Reeling from recent heartbreak, Elenora will stop at nothing to find her happiness. But when she finds herself pressured into an engagement with the dark and mysterious Federico, happiness may be the least of her problems. Hellbent on sabotaging the arrangement, Elenora defies Federico in ways no one else would ever dare. Too bad Federico's never been one to back down from a challenge. Especially one that calls to him in the most feral and passionate of ways. With unforeseen betrayals and new rivals, perhaps the real challenge Federico must face is deciding whether to fight his feelings for Elenora or give into them. But even if he chooses to end his long-standing vendetta against her father for mounting sparks between them, there's no guarantee she'll risk her heart on him. *Content Advisory: This story contains coarse language, scenes with violence and mature sexual content.

After a failed attempt at a relationship, I try to make it on my own. However, I end up with a new neighbor who exudes charm, danger, and sexual energy as if it's a job. To make matters worse, I find myself semi-kidnapped by the same dangerous, foul-mouthed, rude neighbor who turns out to be a part of the Italian Mafia. Now, I'm stuck riding shotgun while being chased by gun-wielding maniacs on our way to someplace "safe." I'm beginning to think this is my new reality. *Trigger Warning* Graphic violence, explicit mature scenes, and non-consensual touching (not from the main love interest).
