After finishing her first year as a nursing student, Leonar returns to her quiet hometown for summer vacation and walks past the buffet restaurant where she once had her first part-time job. The manager immediately recognizes her and asks if she can start working again because they are short-staffed. Leonar hesitates, but she decides she won't run away from the past anymore.
The problem is that the moment she steps inside, she runs into Sean-the person she once liked the most. Sean is four years older, tall, quiet, and carries a calm but intimidating presence. Five months ago, something happened that suddenly broke their connection, and for the last four months they haven't spoken or seen each other at all.
Now, working together in the busy buffet restaurant-serving tables, restocking food stations, and closing late at night-Leonar and Sean are forced to face each other again. In a place filled with noise and people, the two of them must confront the silence, unfinished feelings, and the truth about what really happened between them.
"The Hacker and the Mob Boss" ❦
Reyna Fields seems to be an ordinary girl with her thick-framed glasses, baggy clothes, hair always up in a ponytail, and her head tucked away behind a computer screen. However, no one knows she's armed with a genius IQ and a heart of gold. She hacks her way into virtual systems on a search for her mother.
Unfortunately for her, she has hacked into the wrong database. She hacked into the database of the notorious mob boss, Santino "Saint" Venturi.
Saint is the opposite of his name. He's known for his ruthlessness. As a mob boss to a mafia, he learned to eat or be eaten. When Reyna stumbles upon his database, a plan dispersed into his mind. He's going to take her.

"I don't share, angel."
"He's a friend," she found herself saying. Dante was too busy staring at her to notice the fiery glare in Saint's eyes. She was mentally praying that Dante would just look away.
His fingers trailed up her leg before his hand latched onto her sex. He held her there while a small gasp left her lips. "I will fuck you on this table if he doesn't stop looking at what belongs to me."
