Sinful Duets

Jay and Sasha:

I’ve never once protected someone outside of the job, or felt compelled to do anything of the kind, until Sasha.

Those beautiful hazy-filled eyes watch me with interest, suspicion, and longing, but something else too. An emotion that stirs a deep-seated need to control as though she were put on earth just for me.

The hot-headed Russian may be graceful for the public but is sharp-edged and deliciously sinful when not on stage.

When Sasha falls on the wrong side of the mafia, keeping her safe is not a question, but there’s much more at stake than danger in this power game we play.

I want to peel away the older layers she uses to protect her heart and replace it with a fiery ring that will protect her from anything and everything in this forbidden game of love and war.

My reputation and name are whispered on the lips of our enemies for a reason. I dare anyone, even the most notorious of crime families, to stand in the way of me claiming my wayward angel.

Matt and Marenah:

The last thing I expect to find when on an undercover assignment is an innocent blonde with sky blue eyes who makes my heart pound with excitement and blood race with an intensity that I’ve never felt before.

But the granddaughter of the head of the Russian Bratva is not who she appears to be. Not even her family knows her life’s passion, where she goes when she’s not with them, or the secrets that she keeps.

I’ve earned the reputation of one of the most fearless and ruthless protectors in the business for a reason. I’m not about to let any crime family come between me and the woman I want.

When secrets are revealed, I will protect, tame, and make the innocent and off limit mafia princess mine.

Even if the fearless beauty’s good intentions may be the demise of us all.

As one of the wealthiest bodyguards and mafia-connected men in the world, my assignment shouldn’t be difficult.

Get in and find the woman who’s fallen prey to a deadly global trafficking ring and return her to the family. Protect her at all costs.

Those were the orders, and I’ve never let a client down.

The innocent beauty’s eyes swirl with emotion as she looks at me, full of caution, wariness, fear, curiosity and need, all in a hazy mixture of lust that makes this more than a job.

Sheldon and Alexis

When I come across a beautiful young woman who finds herself in the wrong place at the wrong time, I take matters into my own hands.

As a bodyguard to wealthy billionaires and the Larussio Crime Family, I’ve seen situations like this escalate time and time again.

When the criminal with a long past sets his sites on her, Alexis doesn’t see the extent of the danger, until it’s far too late.

But I’m not going to let anything happen to the wide-eyed innocent who takes my breath away and makes my heart pound with an excitement I’ve never known.

That woman speaks to my dark soul on a primal level, causing every protective and possessive instinct I have to kick in, far beyond what I’ve ever known.

The enemies think their deadly game is too perilous to overcome, but they are wrong. They will rue the day they went against one of the most ruthless protectors of them all.

I will keep Alexis safe, and she will be mine to love and cherish for all time. Watch and see…

Nick and Allie

As a wealthy member of a security team, paid to protect billionaires and mafia men alike, I’m used to having anything or anyone I want.

Until I rescue a woman who takes my breath away in one moment with her beauty and leaves my head spinning in the next with that sassy little mouth.

Allie has perfected the art of keeping men at a distance, and I’m determined to break down the defenses she has so carefully constructed in the most delicious of ways.

But the criminals who endangered her closest friend are now after her, and my priorities are split. They will be sorry they ever looked at the woman who belongs to one of the most ruthless protectors around.

Because I protect what’s mine.

And Allie is no longer just another woman on a long list, but the one I plan to make my own for all time. Because in this elusive little game of the heart, I plan to win. Wait and see…
