In the shadowy underbelly of New York City, Polina Nayfield has lived a life steeped in secrets and danger as a member of the Russian mafia. But as the walls close in and the risks grow greater, she makes a desperate decision: to escape her criminal past and start anew.

Fate, however, has other plans.

In a chance encounter that feels anything but random, Polina crosses paths with Dante, a man whose enigmatic presence ignites a whirlwind of intrigue and frustration. Mysterious and infuriatingly captivating, Dante harbors secrets that could either be her salvation or her downfall. As Polina races to uncover the truth about this enigmatic stranger, she finds herself drawn deeper into a web of deception, betrayal, and a dangerous underworld she had hoped to leave behind.

Set against the backdrop of a gritty, unforgiving city, "Dante's Deception" is a thrilling tale of one woman's quest for redemption, her relentless pursuit of freedom, and the magnetic pull of a man whose secrets may shatter everything she thought she knew. With danger lurking around every corner and trust hanging by a thread, Polina must navigate a treacherous path, where the line between right and wrong blurs, and the shadows of the past threaten to consume her future. Will Polina break free from the Russian mafia's grip, or will Dante's mysteries become her ultimate undoing? In this high-stakes game of survival, only one thing is certain: the truth is as elusive as the man who guards it.All Rights Reserved

As Isabella gets closer to finding the only people he has ever considered as family, the pressure to kill her gets worse. But what will he choose? Love or Duty?

And she's always near. Telling her what to do. Making her feel hotter than any future sister-in-law should. Caterina may be the Sweet Abelli on the outside, but she's beginning to learn she has a taste for the darkness, for rough hands, cigarettes, and whiskey-colored eyes.

His Addiction ✓ by venusorionv

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.
