Hate is too small a word for the way I feel about Benito Bernadi, the Di Santo8217s consigliere. If Benito hadn8217t ruined the Falconi family two years ago, they wouldn8217t have dragged their son 8211 my best friend 8211 across 50 States, and I wouldn8217t have given Federico my V card as a parting gift.My sister8217s marriage to the don of the Di Santo mafia family makes it hard to avoid Benito8217s rock solid presence and smoldering glares. But when he goes and takes the office above my dance studio, escaping him is impossible.He knows just how to get under my skin and he8217ll stop at nothing to do so. Shooting my stalker in the head Tick. Treating me like I belong to him Tick. Flashing his inked chest and corded biceps when he thinks I8217m not looking Tick, tick, tick.Just when my head has been emptied of sharp put-downs, and filled with the feel of Benito8217s rough hands on my thighs and searing lips on my throat, Federico Falconi comes home.And he8217s no longer a scorned boy. He8217s a man with a chip on his shoulder, a loaded gun in his waistband and a thirst for revenge.And he8217s going to make me choose.--------------------------------------
