He said I was too young. Then he followed me into the shower and proved otherwise.
Obsessive alpha-males like him and morally grey heroines like her are a recipe for a five-star spice disaster. This age-gap dark mafia romance blends forbidden love and off-limits attraction into a story so tense it hurts to read. An HEA you’ll ache for—but only after control cracks and pride falls to its knees.
When twenty-year-old Penelope Rosseti returns to New York for her sister’s wedding, she doesn’t expect to run into Adriano Vieri—her late best friend’s father. He’s nothing like she remembers. Older, stripped of softness, and radiating danger.
Adriano’s predator’s gaze never leaves Penelope. Every instinct says run, yet something deeper, darker, makes her stay.
And once the line between them is crossed, there’s no pulling back. She’s his now, and he won’t give her up. He takes her hard, knowing that’s where her “yes” lives.
And she doesn’t just moan it. She means it.
