Little Bird by Kelsie Rae

Regina:
They call me a princess. But I’ve never been anything but a hostage in my own home until a rival family gets their hands on me.
That’s when I learn what true fear is, and what it really means to be a prisoner.
As I’m held against my will, I wait for my brother to rescue me. But as the days tick by, I’m not sure I’m strong enough to survive my new captor, Dex, or the feelings his presence sparks.
When we meet, he gives me a new name. Little Bird.
But not all little birds are meant to fly. Some will always be kept in cages. However, the longer I’m around him, I start to wonder if he’s going to set me free, or lock me away forever?

Dex:
They call me Dex, the enforcer for the Allegretti family, and right hand man to one of the most brutal men in the business.
I had one job. Keep my hands to myself and protect the little bird in my custody.
Simple. Transactional. Just another day in the mob. Then she opens her pouty mouth and turns my world upside down.
Under her spell, I’m asked to betray the only family I’ve ever known. However, the longer I’m around her, I start to wonder if she’s the real prisoner, or am I?
