Fire & Darkness 18+ (Mafia Romance)
Lia White lives a quiet life, tucked behind her screen as a graphic designer. It's simple. Safe. Controlled, just the way she needs it. But when Cassiel, the head of the New York Italian Mafia, and one of the richest men in the world notices her... her illusion of safety shatters.
Cassiel doesn't ask. He demands.
Cold and ruthless, to everyone but her, he forces Lia into becoming his personal assistant, using threats and leverage she can't ignore. He says it's business, but it's anything but. From the moment their eyes meet, he's obsessed. Cassiel doesn't just want her talent. He wants her submission. Her attention. Her life entangled in his.
And despite everything, despite the danger, the darkness, and the violence wrapped in silk and sin, Lia can't look away.
But Lia isn't who she seems. Beneath her calm surface are scars both physical and mental, with secrets she's fought to bury. When the past she's run from finally catches up with her, it sets off a brutal chain of events that no one sees coming.
Especially Cassiel.
Love turns to war. Passion turns to ruin.
And it might already be too late by the time the truth comes out.
She was his fire.
He was her darkness.
And together, they were destined to burn.
