Lexi is a bartender in disguise, a chameleon-an assassin.

Everything Lexi has become is all to keep a four-year-old girl safe. Moretti knows that Lexi will do whatever he says for the sake of the child and orders her to remove Crime Boss Angelo Tomassi from his throne. With his luxurious hotel, high-end investments and legion of workers that cater to his every whim, Angelo invokes jealousy from crooked politicians by refusing to give them more shares.

Moretti sends Lexi to take it all.

Lexi is not ignorant to the risks and sees an opportunity to escape Moretti's grasp. She devises a plan to ask for Angelo's help, hoping he will not connect her to Moretti first. Getting on Angelo's good side should be easy when she agrees to go out with the sexy business connoisseur and Angelo's right hand man, Rafa.

One problem-Rafa is a sharp, no-nonsense elite who says he already knows her. Lexi must find out how before petitioning for the help of the Tomassi Group.

A crime boss struggles to carry out a vendetta after he falls for the spirited daughter of his enemy. ***** Twenty-two years after his parents were killed, Federico Di Maggio returns to New York with a simple plan: take down the man who betrayed his family. What he didn't plan on was Elenora Borelli, the enigmatic and fiery daughter of his enemy. Reeling from recent heartbreak, Elenora will stop at nothing to find her happiness. But when she finds herself pressured into an engagement with the dark and mysterious Federico, happiness may be the least of her problems. Hellbent on sabotaging the arrangement, Elenora defies Federico in ways no one else would ever dare. Too bad Federico's never been one to back down from a challenge. Especially one that calls to him in the most feral and passionate of ways. With unforeseen betrayals and new rivals, perhaps the real challenge Federico must face is deciding whether to fight his feelings for Elenora or give into them. But even if he chooses to end his long-standing vendetta against her father for mounting sparks between them, there's no guarantee she'll risk her heart on him. *Content Advisory: This story contains coarse language, scenes with violence and mature sexual content.

WARNING R-RATED Disaster-in-Waiting was a dream come true for me. Firstly writing it and then sharing it on here and receiving such a wonderful response to it. It was because of the support and encouragement on here that I finally took the decision to self-publish as an e-book. It is available on Amazon and can be read for free on there with Kindle Unlimited. ****Mature audience only due to adult themes; sex, language and situations**** Eloise Ross is married to Michael, her much older and recently retired husband. He fills his days with golf and walking the dog, while she fills her days working as a newly appointed P.A. to the CEO of an international company. One night, disillusioned with her sexless marriage she goes out alone, drinks beer and dances with a handsome stranger. The moves on the dance floor quickly lead to passion and excitement like El has never known, but it was only one night, one time. Just that once couldn't mean anything, could it? Just that once changed her view on everything she'd ever thought she'd known or valued; her home, family, husband and marriage, but most of all herself. As her life begins to unravel, with twists and turns that make her laugh, cry and despair El has only one constant to hang onto, her handsome stranger. "Because I don't want to end it. I'm not exactly what you'd call experienced," I said with a warm flush creeping up my cheeks. "I thought everything I had, with Michael was an ideal life until that night, when I met you and something switched inside me, a realisation that it was as far from ideal as anything ever could be. I don't think I'm being clear here, sorry. I am not trying to pin my happiness or the consequences of this on you, God, I don't even call you by your first name so to expect anything of you is not realistic!"

This book can be read as a standalone, however, I advise you to read His Possession first. This would help you understand the context and not spoil the first book if you choose to read it after this one. ~~~~~~~~ One year has passed since Adena Madden left Italy and her past behind. One year since she left the man she fell in love with. She lived away from everyone she once knew. She wanted to take a break. One that let her enjoy the freedom and live like a regular person. Perhaps the lavish life that Nico offered her was too much for a girl like Dena. Except her life was never going to be simple. She was the weakness of the ruthless Italian mafia don. One that had more enemies than any person on the planet. She was the one thing people could hold against him. One thing that would make him do anything in return for her safety. She thought that her relationship was left behind. Yet she never thought she could be so easily fooled into thinking no one would eventually take advantage of Nico's biggest weakness. Nico Savellini has gone through a lot in his life. He never thought that a girl would hurt him more than a bullet. After a year of her absence, he tried to move on and yet no matter how much he tried, He couldn't. But he never thought that the Russian mafia don would be smart enough to use her against him. No matter how much he should've expected it, he hoped he could protect her. His father told him he can never be with her, but can you really tell the heart what to do? And now that she's in danger, He has to get her back. Even if he has to put his life and empire at stake. ~~~~~~~~~ Trigger warnings: includes sexual content, mature language, mature/sensitive themes, scenes with weapons, violence and murder.
