Sins and Secret

Desperation sends me to the auction where the only thing I have to sell...is myself.

The Marchetti Mafia runs this town. My dad has been under their thumb for years as the Boss's personal consigliere. After facing death multiple times he's now hanging on by a mere thread and I worry the next injury will be his last. They always say once you join the family you're in it for life. Yet there may be a way out, but it'll cost me more than I ever imagined.

I join a rival's auction hoping to earn enough money to buy my father's freedom. I never expected my buyer to be none other than Alessio Marchetti himself, the Marchetti family mafia boss and my father's best friend. Now instead of freedom I find myself sucked further into the world I desperately want to escape from.

Every fiber of my being is telling me to run but I don't get the chance because Alessio whisks me and my father away to his estate. He provides my father with the best medical care but I don't appreciate being kept under lock and key even if I'm being paid for it. But the more time I spend with him the more I realize his grumpy tattooed exterior is barely the tip of the iceberg of who Alessio really is. My world is turned upside down when I find myself happiest wrapped in his embrace and craving his touch.

When a rival kidnaps me my only hope is the man I've been desperate to escape from...Alessio.
