Mobster's Baby: Bad Boy Mafia Romance (23 page)

Thief

Crooks steal. Villains kill. Bad boys take what they want.
 
 

Sarah

“The only thing to fear is fear itself.” 
Whoever said that has never met Blake. 
He scares me from the moment he steps into my bar. 
I can’t decide if he’s the man of my dreams or my worst nightmare. 
I never imagined I’d land in his bed. 
But it doesn’t take long before I’m begging to stay. 
Until I find out he’s no better than the man from my past, 
The one coercing me into a life of crime 
That I’ll never escape. 
I have to decide: 
Is Blake truly a demon? 
Or is it just that he’s hotter than hell? 
Blake
 

I do three things well: fight, f**k, and leave. 
And I always stick to what I’m good at. 
When I see Sarah, I want her right away. 
She’s a redhead, rowdy, and ripe for the taking. 
At first, she protests when I make her mine. 
But it doesn’t take long before “No” becomes “Oh!” 
The only problem is, there’s a stalker lurking in her shadow. 
A predator hunting her down. 
She’s got a simple choice: Either fall into bed with a devil like me… 
…or become prey to the monster who will destroy her. 

Lucky

“Handle with care”: three words I’ve never said.

I’m not a nice guy. 
I’ll break your heart and your headboard, and leave without a trace. 
After months laying low in Ireland, I’m coming home. 
One thing on my mind: kill the men who betrayed me. 
But when the trucker smuggling me back to the States turns out to be a sexy, doe-eyed brunette, I figure it’s the luck of the Irish. A nice little bang before I get back to my revenge mission. 
She’s a doctor-in-training, as desperate to stitch my wounds as she is to bend over my bed. 
She thinks she knows anatomy, but she’s never seen a man like me. 
And by the time I’m done with her, 
She’ll never want anything else.

Crush

Ashley

It isn't easy going home – not when HE'S there.
How couldn't I love him? His blond hair, tousled from his football helmet, the muscles rippling along his quarterback shoulders, the way he looks at me when we pass each other half-clothed in the hallway in the middle of the night...
His eyes, exposing me. Baring me. Stripping me down to nothing but skin and desire.
I've never wanted anything like I wanted him to cross the distance between us.
I can't act on this lust, can't say anything. It would destroy our family.
But I'm only human. And he's sleeping in the room next door...
Danny

I'm happy to see her, of course.
But it's hard to ignore the feeling she ignites in my chest.
Once upon a time, that used to be enough. But not anymore.
Now, when she looks at me and bites her lower lip, desire flashing through her eyes, I worry that I will lose control. I don't know if I'll be able to stop myself from doing what we both want – making her mine.
The problem is, she's mine already.
And she's sleeping in the room next door.
