Enter Marcel Nixon, 26, who silently follows Eli with the goal of gathering information about the criminal group until the organization he works for tracks down their clandestine operation. However, circumstances cause them to cross paths and Marcel is forced to reveal his identity.

Daniela O'Brien. Dani is the girl you would say has absolutely no luck going for her at all. Two dead parents, an estranged sister and an abusive, controlling boyfriend who's keeping one hell of a secret from her. At 21 years old she unknowingly finds herself thrown into the darkest life of them all - The Mob. Carson Agnello. The guy you would say, on the surface, has all the luck going for him. At 25 years old, he's the leader of the most powerful Italian mafia in America. He's busy fighting off the Irish Mob who are neighbouring him in New York. They're on opposite sides of the battle, he knows of her but she has no clue who he is, until one event intertwines their two lives together. They suddenly rely just on each other, they need each other. They're all each other has. ✨ "I felt sorry for you, when I saw you. I wanted to help you because you were being attacked by these men. But now, I'm starting to think that maybe you deserve it. Maybe...maybe you're just as bad as they are." He held my stare as I spoke and when I finished, he let out a humourless laugh, also standing up to his feet. I watched him carefully as he crossed the room coming towards me, giving me the same cold glare as before. He stopped right in front of me, close enough for me to smell the strong scent of his aftershave, before he leaned down a little bringing his face closer to mine. His next words came out barely above a whisper but were still powerful enough to cause my breath to catch in my throat. "Maybe I am just bad as them...or maybe I'm worse baby girl." ⚠️ Warning - this book contains explicit mentions and descriptions of abuse, rape, mental health issues and suicide. Read with caution please. ⚠️ Completed - 26.05.21

🌈【𝒶𝓃 𝓂𝓂 𝓁𝑜𝓋𝑒 𝓈𝓉𝑜𝓇𝓎】 "Vince was old-school handsome. Textbook handsome. The kind of good looks you see on a screen but never expect to encounter in real life. When you do, it throws you off. He didn't feel real, like he was something I wasn't supposed to touch. And then he touched my leg. Oh my god. These thoughts were going nowhere good. What was I supposed to be thinking about again? [...] Vince made me feel seventeen all over again. The difference was that I no longer had raging hormones or guilt holding me back. I was a grown man. I could do this. I could focus on other things." • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • Andrew Parker's life has been shaped by heartbreak... from being kicked out after coming out to losing his first love on the day he graduated high school.

Charlie's life is almost perfect...on the outside. He's months away from locking it in with the perfect girl and locking away everything about himself that he hates. That is until Levy Coltrane walks into the locker room. Levy needs a blank slate, somewhere where no one knows his name. He's counting on this new start, this new precinct, to wash away the weight of the past. He just wants to find something that makes him happy again. With just a handshake, Charlie imagines his demise in human form standing right in front of him dripping wet and with the sexiest smirk he's ever seen. Levy, on the other hand, sees the partner he needs to get back to work and back to himself. He hopes. But is that all? Could they both finally get what they need? What they want?
