We made a deal… one I thought I’d never make. I’m trying not to judge myself but it’s a bit shameful. Rent was due and I simply didn’t have it. I love the big city and I’ve done everything I could to make it. But after a rough few years, a break up that nearly destroyed me, and a personal issue that I just can’t talk about… I’m broke and hit rock bottom. Then there’s Graham.

I thought I had life all figured out…and then you kissed me.

In this small town, everyone talks... and they all know I'm head over heels for my boss. I didn't know I had a type until he came to town. His charming smile and rough laugh did a number on me. It's the way I found him always looking my way though, with his piercing gaze, that really did me in. We'd share a glance. I'd blush. Then we'd pretend there wasn't sexual tension piled high between us. First it was a look, then it was a touch, then it was late nights after work.

Du gehörst mir! Ich bin nicht immer stolz darauf, wer ich geworden bin. Aber als Mitglied einer Mafia-Familie hatte ich nicht viele Möglichkeiten. Macht, Geld, Frauen - vor allem Frauen - waren für mich immer leichte Beute. Bis Becca in mein Leben trat. Alles an ihr ist die reinste Verführung: Ihre schönen Augen, die direkt in meine Seele blicken, und ihr heißer Körper, der mich um den Verstand bringt. Sie wollte nur eine Schuld begleichen, aber ich wollte mehr. Und ich nehme mir immer, was ich will.

From USA Today best-selling author Willow Winters comes a seductive and emotionally captivating, second chance romance. It’s impossible to get over what we had. He was everything - irresistibly handsome, ruthlessly elite, and seemingly untouchable - while I was nothing. Yet he protected me when I was at my lowest; more than that, he wanted me. He devoured me… and I did the same to him. Until it all fell apart and I ran as far away from Madox as I could. After all, the two of us were never meant to be together.

Don't judge a book by its cover. You'll tell me you don't...but you already think you know what my story's about. You have no idea. Just like the people sitting in this courtroom. She asked for it. That's what they keep saying. And no, it's not because my skirt was too short or I was drunk at a party. It's nothing like that. It's because of what I like and how I like it. They're judging me as I sit in the front row, my eyes drawn to the man on trial. If I'd known it was going to end like this, I never would have gone home with him. But he's the type of man I just can't say no to.

Kat knew better than to get involved with a man like me, all tattoos and muscle. No one in Brooklyn thought it would last, but I wasn't about to let her get away. I got her in my bed, and I ruined her for anyone else. I made her mine. I gave her everything but the truth.

It was too hard to keep her. Kat was never supposed to be mine, not with my reputation. But the way her lips tasted, the way her curves felt under my hands...I couldn't let go. So I gave her everything - my life, my heart, my ring.

Mason Thatcher gave me chills when I first laid eyes on him. The good kind. The kind that makes your body ache and your heart hammer. What's better is that he looked at me the same way. There was a hunger in his eyes that wouldn't be sated and a confidence in his stride that told me I could never run from him. Back then I didn't want to. It's not fair that his touch eased my pain. That his lips on mine made my worries vanish. That his love gave me a reason to breathe again. With him I felt complete, as if fate had given me a second chance.

Fate brought us together, but the sins of my past threaten to rip us apart. In a city ruled by corruption and powerful men, only the ruthless survive. And that's just what I am. Like father, like son. The life I lead is riddled with black tie affairs and dark secrets. simple mistake destroyed a woman I knew nothing about. She was only a name and a beautiful face in a photograph. Her fairytale life was shattered, but I didn't give a damn. Or at least I thought I didn't care, until she stumbled into me.

Ich war unschuldig, bevor ich ihm begegnete. Und ich wusste, dass er mich zerstören würde - trotzdem konnte ich ihm nicht widerstehen. Obwohl ich die Gefahr spürte, sehnte sich mein Herz nach ihm. Seine dunklen Augen und sein charmantes Lächeln zogen mich an, und ich gab der Versuchung nach. Doch dann sah ich etwas, das ich niemals hätte sehen dürfen. Und die Mafia duldet keine Zeugen. Vincent Valetti wird nicht zulassen, dass mir etwas zustößt, aber er wird mich auch nicht gehen lassen.

Ich dachte, ich wäre sicher. Ich erinnere mich noch genau daran, wie ich mein Kleid glattgestrichen und meine Ohrringe angelegt habe, so als wäre mein Aussehen das Wichtigste auf der Welt. Doch an diesem Tag änderte sich alles. Der Tag, an dem meine Familie ermordet und ich entführt wurde. Meine Fesseln werde ich wohl niemals los, aber ich höre nicht auf zu kämpfen. Ich werde Rache nehmen, koste es, was es wolle. Solange ich mich noch an das Mädchen erinnern kann, das ich früher war.
