The Big Bad's Darling

Lucien Giordano is dangerous, they say. And he wants me. Every part of me. I thought the mafia was something out of stories and movies. But Lucien is a consigliere to the richest mafia family this side of the country. I didn’t know that when I told him he shouldn’t skip the line. I had no idea when we bantered. He’s big, built like a linebacker, and twenty years older. Why does it feel like he’s obsessed with a girl like me? No matter how much I want him, I can’t let him get closer. I’ve dealt with ambitious men before, and I was left burned. Besides, my life is not only mine now. And Lucien wouldn’t want me if he knew that. …Or would he?
