In the spicy third chapter of a dark romance series set in a mafia boarding school, Aria Costa finds herself irresistibly drawn to Gabriele Vitale, her brother's best friend. Despite his clear intentions to keep his distance, moments of interest from him suggest otherwise. When a reckless decision brings them together, Aria glimpses the darkness Gabriele embodies, igniting a dangerous attraction that both excites and terrifies her. She feels herself being pulled into his world, willing to risk everything for a deeper connection. Gabriele, however, knows the stakes. Aria is off-limits for multiple reasons, including her familial ties to Marcello Costa, his friend and protector. Aware of her youth and naivety, he tries to resist the magnetic pull he feels towards her. Yet, his protective instincts surge whenever she’s near, compelling him to keep her safe, especially after a reckless choice leads to threats against her. As he navigates the perilous situation, Gabriele grapples with his feelings and the lengths he would go to for Aria, even if it means risking his own life. This title was previously published as Coveting the Mafia King's Sister.

The second installment of The Mafia Academy Series--a forbidden romance set at a boarding school for the sons and daughters of the most powerful mafia lords...now with exclusive bonus content! Sofia Moretti For years, I've harbored a secret love for my best friend's older brother. Yet, he's never shown any sign of sharing my feelings. My fantasies will remain just that--fantasies. For two reasons. First, he's arranged to marry the cunning and cold-hearted Aurora Salucci. Second, Antonio always does what his duty demands, and if his father wants him married to Aurora, he'll marry her. Forced to watch her parade him all over Sicuro Academy, I do my best to push Antonio from my mind and hope I can move on from someone who will never be mine... Antonio La Rosa My life has been a series of duties--to the mafia, to my father, but never to myself. Aurora and I are a good match as far as mafia politics go, but she's nothing I've ever wanted in a wife with her hard edges and being about as malleable as granite. Then there's Sofia Moretti, my little sister's best friend. I never looked at her with anything other than sisterly affection, until recently. Now she consumes my every thought. My every desire. Her innocence beckons me, and I yearn to be the one who taints it. But I have a duty. And right now, the family needs me to uncover the traitor plotting against us... and that traitor may be closer than I ever imagined.
