Beautiful Prisoner: A Captive Dark Mafia Romance

I witnessed a murder. Now, the city’s most lethal predator has locked me in a gilded cage… and he refuses to let me go.

GEORGIA
I was supposed to be a ghost. A nobody surviving on the freezing streets of Chicago. But one wrong turn into a dark parking garage, one accidental flash of a camera, and I became the most hunted woman in the city. I saw the Underboss of the Chicago syndicate put a bullet in a man's skull. Running was my only option. Hiding was my only hope. Then I stumbled into his hardware store. Damiano Toscani. Massive, scarred, and radiating a terrifying, violent power. He offered me a job and a place to hide from the blizzard. But Damiano isn't a savior. He’s the syndicate’s most ruthless enforcer. He’s the nephew of the very monster who wants me dead. When he finds out who I really am, he doesn't hand me over. Instead, he drags me to his high-rise penthouse, locks the heavy steel doors, and throws away the key. He says he’s keeping me safe. But the dark, hungry way he looks at me tells me I’ve simply traded one predator for another.

DAMIANO
I am a blunt instrument. A weapon forged in cartel fire, designed to execute my uncle's will without hesitation or mercy. I don't do charity. I don't take strays. But the moment Georgia looked at me with her terrified hazel eyes, the ice in my veins cracked. She brought a ticking time bomb into my territory, carrying the physical evidence that could destroy my entire bloodline. My orders from the syndicate are eliminate the witness. Sanitize the leak. But she is mine. I will lock her away where the family can never touch her. I will commit treason. I will declare war on my own uncle to keep her breathing. She thinks I’m her jailer. She thinks I’m a monster. She’s right. And I will burn this entire city to ash before I let anyone take my beautiful prisoner.
