Tainted Desire

I’m the king of bad decisions. One more won’t hurt.
I never asked to be kidnapped…again.
Never asked to be a third-wheel on my best friend’s honeymoon either.
But what I really don’t need is for Alessandro Falcone-bad boy mafia prince–to act as my self-assigned protector.
Malta is vibrant & welcoming.
My host–not so much.
As if barking orders and growling threats would have any effect on me.
Only when he holds me tight and tells me to breathe and keep my eyes on him, when I’m triggered–I see another side of him.
One that I do my darnest to dismiss.
We’re on a collision course to disaster.
Because I will never give up my freedom.
He’s the most dominant man I’ve ever met.
When Alex Falcone wants something, he usually gets it.
This time it’s me.
But I’m not to be had.
