When my mother's deteriorating health pushed me into rethinking my career choices, my boss did what he thought best and shoved me into a world I never planned on venturing into. The job was simple: get in, get the information, and get the hell out.
Except, it wasn't that easy.
Especially when my target was the most nefarious man in New York.
The closer I got to the devil, the more I saw sides of him I never knew existed. He burned me with his scorching touch, demanding kisses and hungry gazes. He was determined to have me at all costs and explore every inch of me.
One might have thought he would stop at that, but-devil help me-he needed more. More than I was ready to give.
There was a reason I never wanted to enter the Mafia world.
When my past came crashing onto my doorstep, every lie unravelled, pushing me to the edge of the plank I had managed not to jump from for years.
But nothing prepared me for the worst.
That being the connection between the man I desired and my dead sister.

We all know what they say about sweet things: when consumed excessively, they turn from savoury to bitter. That was what she was.
A poor excuse for a sweet I wanted to devour.
But once I learnt who she really was, I wanted to make her suffer with the same intensity.
She deserved it. And so did her scheming sister.
Only I didn't know the entire truth, like I had thought I did.
But did that stop me from craving her? Hell, no. My desire to have her magnified. She became mine the moment she walked into my life with those hauntingly blue eyes.
She could give me the one thing I never had in life: happiness.
But being the master at ruining everything, how could I ever be the man she wanted me to be?
