Kept By the Mafia Enforcer by Cameron Hart

Rocco: I was sent to collect the eighteen-year-old mafia princess, Alessia Ricci. Why Luca and Matteo elected me, the six-foot-seven, hulking enforcer to do a simple pick up and delivery is beyond me, but orders are orders. I’ll admit the gorgeous, curvy goddess threw me for a loop the first time I saw her. But when she turned her nose up at me and treated me like a servant, I knew she was every bit the spoiled brat I expected her to be. I didn’t expect, however, that Alessia would give me the slip. Twice. Now I’m chasing her down with more determination than ever. Her impressive disappearing acts intrigued me. Her golden eyes drew me in. But it’s her quiet strength that has me hunting her down so I can make the princess mine. Finders keepers, after all.

Alessia: I can’t believe I’m doing this. Defying the men who control my life. Starting over somewhere new. My inspiration while preparing for my big escape was Regina George from Mean Girls. Spoiled, arrogant, and entitled to boot. I sprinkled in a little bit of Scarlett O’Hara for good measure. For all my research and planning though, nothing prepared me for Rocco. He’s tall, ripped, and bearded, with hands that look like they could crush me. Or do other things to me. Not that I would know anything about that. It was his rich dark brown eyes that really got to me, though. But I’m being naive. It’s a crush, nothing more. Why then do I want him to chase me? I’ve been kept under lock and key my whole life, but the idea of being kept by Rocco has me questioning my plans to disappear. I hope it doesn’t take him too long to find me…
