Dark and Steamy Mafia

When a scary-looking—indecently hot—Italian mobster shows up to shake me down for protection money, then reddens my bottom with his palm and demands I obey him - what’s a girl to do?

I hide.
But he not only finds me, he takes over my whole damn life, and I find I welcome it every step of the way.
With my insides set ablaze by Tommaso Vittelli's touch, I’m not sure what I want anymore. My mobster won’t stay in the US forever, and I’m not leaving my home and my heritage.
‘Lies carry consequences’, he told me.
And I’m a liar. I lied about not needing him.
I’m Carrie Ellerbrock - tiara-wearing, self-professed booknerd, proud owner of the Sugar Princess Bookstore - and I’m ready for my punishment.

Intended for an 18+ audience.
