Life takes an unexpected turn when Tia meets the boy whom she secretly had a crush on all through her school years.

Tia's friends who had always known about her infatuation are more than thrilled as Ron is absolutely a girl's dream come true - a stunner with a heart of gold. Everything seemed just so perfect and it looked like the universe finally heard her wishes...if not for one person who didn't want her to be with Ron. And it was none other than the person Tia loved most in the world - Rianna, her sister. The bizzare part of it all was that Rianna was no longer alive!

But when she crosses paths with Samael, a ruthless underground fighter and feared gang leader, everything changes.

Enter Phoenix, Samael's fiercest rival and a brutal fighter with an agenda of his own. He wants to see Samael fall. But when Leilani becomes the target of a deadly threat, alliances shift, and enemies are forced to unite. Can Samael and Phoenix put their hatred aside long enough to keep Leilani alive?

The Vipers Temptation | Completed di creativemindxo

After a failed attempt at a relationship, I try to make it on my own. However, I end up with a new neighbor who exudes charm, danger, and sexual energy as if it's a job. To make matters worse, I find myself semi-kidnapped by the same dangerous, foul-mouthed, rude neighbor who turns out to be a part of the Italian Mafia. Now, I'm stuck riding shotgun while being chased by gun-wielding maniacs on our way to someplace "safe." I'm beginning to think this is my new reality. *Trigger Warning* Graphic violence, explicit mature scenes, and non-consensual touching (not from the main love interest).
