"There's still one thing I'm a little...concerned about," Floren picked the lint off of his dirty Armani jacket sleeve.
"And what's that? You think Martolli's gonna sic his men on the newspaper company?"
"No, Val," Floren held his cousin's dark eyes. "I think Martolli's gonna sic his men on you."
It's been almost a month since Valentino Arlotti narrowly escaped the clutches of a neighboring crime family's most feared consigliere- Sebastiano Martolli. Now, with an escape trip to Europe lined up before him and his Mafioso cousins on the hunt to end Sebastiano's life, Val is certain he can finally relax.
However, much to Val's surprise and fear, disaster strikes again when a close family member of Val's is attacked by Martolli's gang and rendered into critical condition, initiating a cat-and-mouse game between Val and his enemies that stretches from a small Massachusetts town to the gaudy streets of Milan. As Val battles his opponents in hopes of abandoning his gruesome past forever, he will find himself faced with a matter of the future he never imagined encountering.

Valentina Moretti was raised to be seen, not heard-a beautiful ornament in her father's empire, useful only for the alliance her marriage would bring. But when the Moretti family faces annihilation from rival families circling like wolves, Valentina does the unthinkable on her wedding night: she seizes power in the only way a woman in la famiglia can. By making sure the groom has no choice but to say "I do." Leati Joseph Anoaʻi-The Tribal Chief-didn't build his empire by trusting beautiful women with blood on their hands. As head of the Anoaʻi family, he carries the weight of Samoan tradition, where fa'amatai leadership means he is responsible for every soul under his protection. His word is law. His family is sacred. And his new bride just murdered her way into his life. The marriage contract is signed in blood and binding for one year. Leati gets the Moretti territories, resources, and political connections. Valentina gets protection, a seat at the table, and a husband who watches her like she's a loaded gun. They are not allies. They are not friends. And they are definitely not falling in love. But in a world where blood debt is currency and betrayal is a family tradition, Leati and Valentina discover something more dangerous than their enemies: the possibility that the person sleeping beside you-the one you're supposed to destroy-might be the only one who truly sees you. He believes in tautua-service to family above all. She believes in survival at any cost. Together, they'll either rule an empire... or burn it to ashes.Complete
Velvet & Vengeance
Lena Morrow thought the worst thing about working nights in a city that never sleeps was the loneliness. That is, until she realizes someone's been watching her-someone patient, quiet, and deadly. When a stranger saves her from a contract hit and drags her into a web of secrets, she learns her missing brother was never just a ghost from her past-he was part of something bigger. Something ruthless. Cassian Vale doesn't do attachments. As the underworld's most efficient assassin, his rules are simple: no names, no mercy, no survivors. But Lena Morrow breaks every one of them. Protecting her means betraying the empire that built him, and once he's tasted her defiance, he can't let her go-no matter how much blood it costs. As bullets fly and alliances crumble, their story becomes one of survival, obsession, and a love sharp enough to cut. In a city of smoke and sin, they'll have to decide whether to save each other... or destroy everything in the name of it.Complete

Valeria Castillo, the fierce and headstrong 20-year-old daughter of Mexico's most feared cartel leader, has spent her life proving she's more than just a bargaining chip. But when her father's empire begins to crumble under relentless attacks, he strikes a desperate deal-marrying her off to the heir of the Italian Mafia to unite their forces and win the war.

Forced into a union neither of them wants, Valeria and Alessio clash in a battle of dominance, both refusing to be the first to break. But as the war rages around them, their fiery hatred begins to ignite something neither of them expected. Valeria sees through Alessio's ruthless facade, and against his will, he finds himself drawn to the woman who refuses to bow to him. In a world where loyalty is a weapon and love is a weakness, Valeria and Alessio must decide-will they destroy each other, or will their forbidden passion be the key to their survival?
Attracted to His Cold
It wasn't really the result I was looking for. In fact, it was even better. I never really thought that this would happen to me. I never believed someone could love, well, me. But they did. He did. And despite his 'reputation', despite his lifestyle, despite everything everyone had ever told me, I loved him just as unconditionally. But will everything stay in harmony? How long will my paradise last for until my past comes back? Will they haunt me? Catch me? Kill me? "Livia? Tiago?" I ask, my voice breaking slightly. If they're here, then.... "Where is he? Where's-" "Gattina." All the breath in my lungs disappear as I turn to find the source of the voice. Half-way through my turn, I can see his dark silhouette at the end of the hallway. When I breathlessly say my next word, it feels as if I can breathe properly again for the first time in over a month. "Lupo." I run towards him without a second thought, sprinting full speed at him, and jump into his awaiting arms. He engulfs me in the warmest hug I've ever felt, entrapping me entirely - not that I mind. I cry in joy at finally being reunited with him as I bury my head into his neck, burrowing myself into him and vowing never to let him go again. Unwrapping myself from him, I look up at into his eyes. They're filled with love and relief, the same emotions I imagine my eyes are filled with. That quickly changes when his face contorts into one of pain. "Cole?" my brows furrow in confusion. He lets out a pained and strangled noise before he drops to his knees, collapsing at my feet. I gasp when I see Viktor behind him, holding a bloodied knife. A/N: Hey guys. Be prepared for dark themes, mature language, mature scenes, and so much more.
