Defying Her Mafioso - The Vitucci Mafiosos, #1

Ciro Donati was many things:My father's most valued and trusted soldier. My brother's best friend and second in command. The only man I would give up everything for. We were still kids when I fell in love with the Mafioso, knowing full well who he was to become. A beast of a man that made people disappear-and probably enjoyed every second of it. But with me, he was tender, protective. He treated me like I was the most precious thing in the world to him.
And then he sent me away. Scarlett Vitucci was many things:The daughter of the biggest Cosa Nostra boss from New York to Chicago. The sister of the man I would gladly take a bullet for. The only woman I would ever love. Sending her away was the hardest thing I've ever done. I didn't deserve her or her love. For years I stayed away. Ignored the gnawing ache that her absence left in my chest. Seeing her now, I know fighting what I felt for her is impossible.
Letting her go had been a huge mistake. One I would never repeat again.
