This book is a spin-off to 'Letting Him In', but can be read as a standalone as this book is set before the events of the former.
Despite being born into the business world, Christian more often than not found himself thinking about how he didn't belong here. The role and responsibility as heir to the family business, the putting on a facade for every meeting, the pretending, pretending, pretending all the time... maybe it just wasn't for him.
So when he's offered his first joint, he takes it thinking it'll be a one time thing to relieve some stress. Until it isn't. Before he knows it, Christian is spiraling.
And all the while, there's his perfect twin, Dean. He's the one who you would call the golden child of the family. He had the charm, was effortlessly perfect at everything, and it was like everyone he met couldn't help but love him. It was a shame that Chris was born before Dean, (or, sometimes he felt that it was a shame he was born at all), and that their family was strict on the tradition of passing the business to the eldest child. He wished he could hate his brother, but he knew he never could.
And now he might lose everything he's ever had, all because of a stupid mistake.

Only His (mafia romance)
He leans in, his breath ghosting over my skin, every inch of space between us collapsing. "Still pretending you have a choice?" His voice is soft, almost amused. My throat tightens, but I force the words out anyway. "I don't belong to you." A low, knowing chuckle rumbles through him. Fingers tighten around my chin, tilting my face up until I'm caught in his unyielding gaze. Cold. Calculating. "Belong?" he echoes, as if the word itself is laughable. "You exist because I allow it. You breathe because I haven't taken that from you, yet." Tears burn at the edges of my vision, but I don't dare look away. "Fight all you want," he murmurs, eyes scanning my face, his grip unshaking. "Scream, beg, break--I don't care. In the end, little one, you'll learn. Because every part of you?" His lips brush against my ear, a cruel whisper of finality. "It's already mine." __________________________________________ A meaningless prank call caused this disaster, a series of deaths and misery. And maybe it was more than a prank call... maybe it was your loved ones, the people you least expect it to be, to stab you in the back. After all, they do say money changes a person. **18+** **DARK ROMANCE**

Perfect Fate ✔ (Moved To Inkitt)
Wattpad Creator! Happy and proud. HIM: Staying the night? Not my thing. Hearts and flowers? Boring. Falling in love? Not anytime soon. Settling down? Off the table. Getting married? You're kidding me, right? That was me before the night we first met. Because, well, meeting a hot chick that made me hard just by looking at her was definitely not in my plans when I sneaked out of a woman's apartment after what was already a long night. Taking her home and getting her a chocolate cake, though, was kind of intentional. But falling for her? Boy, that was pretty much inevitable. HER: He came out of nowhere, literally. I was there, sitting on that bench, barefoot and crying and just getting my heart broken in peace and silence. Then he appeared, all mad and furious and sexy and tall and just drool-worthy! And just like that, despite my poor attempts of escaping him, he had me wrapped in his world. A crazy yet heart-fluttering world, that I have absolutely no intentions of leaving anytime soon. ------- Character development is a main theme in this book.
