"I don't let anyone touch me, but you - fuck, I feel like the only way I can breathe is with your hands on me."
•••
Adira Vitale is a single mother with a past she can't outrun and secrets that could kill. She's spent years keeping her daughter safe, doing whatever it takes to stay ahead of the storm. But when a misplaced AirPod case leads her straight into the path of Italy's most dangerous criminal, everything changes.
Tommaso Ricci doesn't do connection. He doesn't do softness. And he sure as hell doesn't do touch-not without the urge to break something. Silent, brutal, and untouchable, Tommaso lives in a world of violence and control. The last thing he expects is a stubborn, beautiful woman barging into his life... with a toddler on her hip and darkness behind her eyes.
She needs protection.
He needs something he can't name.
And neither of them is ready for the fire that's about to ignite.

His Addiction ✓
This book can be read as a standalone, however, I advise you to read His Possession first. This would help you understand the context and not spoil the first book if you choose to read it after this one. ~~~~~~~~ One year has passed since Adena Madden left Italy and her past behind. One year since she left the man she fell in love with. She lived away from everyone she once knew. She wanted to take a break. One that let her enjoy the freedom and live like a regular person. Perhaps the lavish life that Nico offered her was too much for a girl like Dena. Except her life was never going to be simple. She was the weakness of the ruthless Italian mafia don. One that had more enemies than any person on the planet. She was the one thing people could hold against him. One thing that would make him do anything in return for her safety. She thought that her relationship was left behind. Yet she never thought she could be so easily fooled into thinking no one would eventually take advantage of Nico's biggest weakness. Nico Savellini has gone through a lot in his life. He never thought that a girl would hurt him more than a bullet. After a year of her absence, he tried to move on and yet no matter how much he tried, He couldn't. But he never thought that the Russian mafia don would be smart enough to use her against him. No matter how much he should've expected it, he hoped he could protect her. His father told him he can never be with her, but can you really tell the heart what to do? And now that she's in danger, He has to get her back. Even if he has to put his life and empire at stake. ~~~~~~~~~ Trigger warnings: includes sexual content, mature language, mature/sensitive themes, scenes with weapons, violence and murder.Complete

He doesn't know how much he's breaking my heart right now. "Trinity, I don't know how to show you how much sorry I am." He states, rubbing his face with his hand in frustration. "You can't, your 'sorry' doesn't changed what happened." I point to my face, where the bandage is. "This could have been prevented but you didn't even move a muscle to come and save me." "Trinity, if I did that it could have ruined my plans." He says, lowly. "It doesn't matter. If you truly love me like you say you do, you wouldn't have hesitated to come save me. I was so scared Aaron, I thought I was going to die." I respond, tears spilling before I can stop them. "I do love you Trin, I love you so fucking much." He states, clutching his shirt where his heart is. "Not like the way I love you Aaron. If you were in the position I was in, I wouldn't have fucking hesitated to come save you. I would die for you and you clearly wouldn't do the same." - Trinity's planner didn't originally have "falling in love with Aaron Florence" on it, but after a heated night and multiple dates, it became a daily thing. That is until, she learns about what he does for work. She knew he worked with Reid Laurent, but she didn't know about what they did. Ambitious, Aaron Florence is willing to do anything to finish a work task, or mission, even if it puts his loved ones in danger. And it did. Now, terrified and pregnant, Trinity doesn't know what to do, how can she co-parent with the man who claimed to protect her at all costs but didn't? - scandalous © r3mismylove 2022 all rights reservedComplete
The Blossom of Rose
One regretful mistake that shouldn't have happened leads to a whirlwind of chaos. Five years ago, mafia princess, Rose Romano fled from her father's clutches. On the grand night of her return, she's controlled by her harrowing memories and stumbles into the room of a man she should've never looked twice at. Luca Armani. The cruel, cold, conceited monster and King to one of the world's strongest mafias. Also, her father's ultimate rival. In a moment of weakness, she's entangled in his silk sheets and his hands are buried deep in her hair. Mistakenly, lasciviously, regretfully. Both their perceptive minds thought there were no strings attached, yet she's continuously forced around the scrutiny of his intimidating, lustful, grey eyes when someone threatens to expose their little secret to her father. But, that's not the only secret she has. ✽ ✽ ✽ @peachygraham: ITS HARD TO READ OTHER STORIES AFTER I READ YOURS. I keep comparing them to your writing style and your characters.
