She Wasn't You
**COMPLETE** If you enjoyed reading 'You' and 'Hidden Bodies' by Caroline Kepnes or you loved the Netflix adaptation 'You' I think you'll enjoy this book! *** I loved you from the very first time I laid my eyes on you in school. We were young, we gave it a go on a few occasions but we were so young it was never going to last. It was like the world was always against us, never giving us a real shot at true love. 22 years on from the moment we met and I still think of you every single day. Is that normal? We moved in different directions, our lives took us down separate paths and eventually so far away from one another that I can't find you. Both now married with children but I can't shake you and I still wonder whether you think of me too? Do you? I don't mean to do the things I do, but I can't stop myself. It's not their fault, they can't help it, they don't even know they are doing anything to upset me but at the end of the day.. They're not you... She wasn't you...Concluida

Mio Re (#3)
(BOOK 3 OF MAFIA LOVE SERIES) COMPLETED READ MIA REGINA AND ESCORT ME BABY BEFORE YOU READ THIS. This book CANNOT be read as a standalone. * The real story and rule begins now. Once you're in the mafia, death is the only way out. * "Make me hate you so that I don't fall for you again." "You can't fall in love again if you never fell out of it, my love." * My King. Mio Re. * In attempts to protect my only family, I pushed the love of my life away. It killed me, but I knew it killed him more. Now that I see him again, all the love and pain is rushing back and I can't stop it. He's not the man I once loved. I barely recognize this lifeless body that is somehow living. I broke him. I killed him. And I regret it. * A lot happens in four years. People change, circumstances change, feelings change, lovers change, but one thing remains the same. First love and pain. Secrets are kept hidden from the people they shouldn't be and new ones cave in, but when the thin veil is lifted from them, all hell is bound to break loose, especially in the mafia world where hell resides on earth. * Arie and Leo meet once again when they least expect to. The fire that once burned within, ignites back up with more fuel to add to it. The cravings, lust, and love is more powerful than it has ever been, but they're bound by relations and family to even look at one another. Two weeks is all they have to get through and then they don't have to see each other ever again. Hate is what they want to feel, but how can you hate someone you desperately love? She gets pulled back into the mafia world that she desperately wanted to escape, but the darkness and the man at the middle of it all are very alluring. Once you're in it, things are bounds to happen, relations are bound to break, people are bound to be killed, and family is bound to be saved or torn apart completely. MATURE CONTENT SUCH AS SEXUAL SCENES, FILTHY LANGUAGE, TRIGGERING MOMENTS, AND VIOLENCE.Concluida

[COMPLETED] _____________________________________________ "You're worth more than a fucking deal, Amara." _____________________________________________ It all started with a secret deal. A deal that should have meant nothing yet meant everything. Xavier Hernandez, the Italian mafia Don. The title was given to him at a young age being only 16 and now he's carrying the weight of leading a mafia at the age of 20. He's a man who is feared by many and is known for being merciless, ruthless, strong and powerful. He would shoot you between the eyes if you dared to look at him the wrong way. His cold hearted soul has never met the warm touch of another, has never experienced the warm feeling known as love. Amara Sánchez, the Spanish mafia princess. A woman who is sarcastic yet stubborn at times. She is the youngest out of her family being the age of 18 and has a lot of responsibility in her hands as her father is the Spanish mafia Don. She is known to be kind hearted, considerate and a goddess . Her warm heart has yet to touch ones cold heart that seeks the feeling of love. Both complete opposites. What happens when opposites attract? Will it end up in heartbreak or will it lead to a new found love? What happens when the past reveals itself? What happens when the truth is revealed? What will happen when promises are broken? _____________________________________________ //tw please read book with caution// •contains sexual content• started: 14/08/21 finished: 12/12/21 #1 trauma: 29/11/21 #2 arranged marriage: 14/12/21 #3 Italian: 3/12/21 #2 badboy: 11/12/21 #3 enemiestolovers: 14/12/21 #2 alliance: 30/5/25 #4 Spanish: 23/8/25Concluida
𝐓𝐇𝐄𝐈𝐑 𝐋𝐈𝐓𝐓𝐋𝐄 𝐀𝐍𝐆𝐄𝐋 | 𝟏𝟖+
✧ 𝐁𝐑𝐎𝐎𝐊𝐋𝐘𝐍 𝐋𝐎𝐌𝐁𝐀𝐑𝐃𝐈 (𝐀𝐋𝐃𝐄𝐍) ✧ When I was six I was kidnapped and taken away from my family for seven months. Thirteen years later and I have little to no memory of who had taken me. Ever since then my father has been severely overprotective and never lets me out of his sight. Now that I'm somewhat on my own everything starts to change. When I finish high school and start attending New York University my life takes a turn, for better and for worse. They're back. ☆ 𝐀𝐋𝐄𝐗𝐀𝐍𝐃𝐄𝐑 𝐅𝐎𝐑𝐄𝐒𝐓𝐄𝐑 ☆ Years ago we found our little angel. She just so happened to be in the wrong place at the wrong time. She was the light in our lives, until one day we lost her again. Thirteen years later and we still mourn the loss of our sweetheart, but we found her once, we will do it again. I am the head of the Russian mafia, or a professor at NYU depending who you ask. One day I raise my head to look around at the sea of students and my eyes lock on a familiar pair of ocean blue irises. ★ 𝐇𝐀𝐘𝐃𝐄𝐍 𝐂𝐀𝐑𝐍𝐄𝐋𝐋 ★ I'm a heartless killer and offer no apologies for it. As the head of the Russian mafia along with being the CEO to a multibillion dollar company, my life is nothing but darkness. During the day I'm an office man, at night my knife slashes through the necks of anyone I can get my hands on. Killing is my outlet, ever since I lost her. It helps me keep my anger in check. I've never stopped looking for her. We've come close multiple times, but each time came out unsuccessful. As I put a bullet in the head of my ex-guard, Alex comes rushing into the room, and the look on his face says it all. He found her. Start: July 4th End: ///
