Heart of Ruin - Stone and Fire #3 [17+]
They tell me love is a pretty lie. A cruel deception. I wouldn't know-I've never been given the chance to believe in it. A daughter of the Cosa Nostra, passed from one husband to the next like a prized possession, I have learned one thing: a woman's value is measured in obedience. But then I come back, and he's there. Enzo Mancini. Silent. Ruthless. Untouchable. Except... I have touched him. Once, before the lies. Before the fire. Before he left me with nothing but ghosts of a boy who used to stare at me like I was his only sin. Now, he looks at me like I'm his reckoning. Like he's been starving. Like he'll ruin me all over again. The worst part? I want him to. Enzo Mancini She was never supposed to know the truth of that night. The blood on my hands. The fact that I let her believe I was the monster. I told myself I could let her go. That I could watch her slip through my fingers, fall into the hands of men who never deserved her. And I did. She doesn't know what I've done for her. How many bodies I've buried. How many sins I've committed in her name. She's everything I should stay away from. Soft where I am hard. Chaos where I am order. A temptation so dangerous, it should be a death sentence. But I can't stop. I can't stop watching her, wanting her, losing sleep over the way she lingers like a curse in the nightmares she inhabits. She calls me heartless, and like everyone, I let her believe it. She doesn't know that every step she takes away from me is another step toward a man who won't live long enough to touch what's mine. I saved her from the fire long ago, the same one I caused. And now, the flames are swallowing me whole. 17+ Mafia Dark Romance *Standalone*

Luca Moretti-Milan's most feared mafia boss and billionaire-needs a wife to secure a critical business alliance. When he sees Elena arguing with her father at a charity gala, her fiery defiance catches his attention. One look is all it takes for him to decide: she will be his. For Elena, marrying the cold-hearted Italian is a nightmare. He's everything she despises-controlling, ruthless, and dangerous. But beneath his icy exterior burns something far more terrifying than his reputation: an all-consuming obsession with her. "You are mine now, leonessa," he whispers against her skin. "The sooner you accept that, the easier this will be." But Elena isn't some docile trophy wife. She challenges him at every turn, igniting a dark passion neither of them expected. As enemies become lovers, Elena discovers there's more to her husband than the monster everyone fears.

When threats emerge from the shadows of Luca's world, he will stop at nothing to protect what belongs to him.

My Surrogate, My Love... (BWWM, Mafia Romance, 18+)
Darkness and the light DO NOT mix. But what if they did? What kind of precipitate would result from such a union? "He and I, are polar opposites. I am short-tempered, while he does his best to tame his anger. He is a killer, a destroyer of life, a blood thirsty human, who ensures to execute his revenge upon those who betray him, while I completely detest death, and anything that is related to it. They say it is rather difficult to change one's own behaviour. So, how can I play the role of redeemer in someone else's life? How do I pull him out of his lifestyle, when he's already in too deep? Two choices; accept him or leave..." She was accidentally inseminated, resulting in her crossing paths with him. But the real question is, would she be able to survive the mafia world? Would she be able to survive him? I DO NOT OWN THE IMAGES IN THIS BOOK. ALL CONTENT WITHIN THIS BOOK IS PURELY FICTIONAL AND WORKS OF MY IMAGINATION!

The Cursed Prince
In a kingdom where curses are more than mere fairy tales, an ancient castle stands hidden behind walls of dark thorns, forgotten by all but the bravest and the most foolish. For within those shadowed halls slumbers a prince cursed by his own heart's betrayal. Once a ruler feared for his power and beauty, he now lies in a spellbound sleep, imprisoned by a vengeful sorceress who demanded a price for his cruelty: eternal rest, unless someone awakens him and binds their fate to his. Mira has never believed in fairy tales. Life in her village is one of harsh reality, where survival depends on wit and willpower. But when her family's future hangs in the balance, she's driven to the one place her people have always feared. Rumors of a sleeping prince and a curse that can be broken are all she has to go on, yet desperation leaves her no choice. But awakening the prince sets a far greater plan in motion, and the darkness she thought she'd face is only the beginning. Now, bound to a prince whose shadows dance with danger and desire, Mira must learn to navigate a world of magic, betrayal, and a fate that pulls them both toward something neither can escape. The only question is, who will break first-the girl with fire in her veins or the prince whose heart has long since turned to stone?Lengkap
