Taken By The Mafia

Taken By The Mafia

by Annie Whipple

“Good morning, bella mia.”

He brought my earlobe into his mouth. It felt incredible, but I didn't want to give him the satisfaction, so I kept my eyes shut.

“I know you’re awake, Freya,” He kissed my neck. “Not gonna open your eyes? Okay, let’s play…”

I felt him move so that he was on top of me. I instinctively spread my legs just a little so the most dangerous mafia don in the country could slide his body between them.

When Freya wakes up in an Italian villa next to a gorgeous stranger, she has no idea how she got there. As she examines the mysterious Greek god of a man next to her, she tries to remember… was he an innocent one-night stand? Or something else?
