Captive Desire: An Enemies to Lovers Mafia Romance
Renee Parker
Trinity
I had a plan: graduate, mail the hard drive that will avenge my best friend’s death, leave California before the Kings’ war erupts, and start a new life in Austin.
Alone. But that’s okay. I’m used to it by now.
I’m this close to success.
Until a man intercepts me at the post office and kidnaps me. Brody is dangerous. Infuriating. And inexplicably intoxicating. He’s the enforcer for the Port Kings, run by LA Kings patriarch Declan Gallagher. One of my family’s worst enemies.
I’m determined to escape. I almost do.
Until the Russians attack.
And he saves me.
Now we’re on the run from men who want me dead. My captor has become my protector. I hate him. But he’s my only chance of recovering my hard drive. I just have to manipulate him first.
Only, there’s a razor-thin line between hate and desire.
And the more risks he takes for me, the more terrified I am that I won’t run when I finally get the chance.
Even when I learn he’s been keeping the biggest secret of all.
Brody
As far as leverage goes, Trinity Gallagher is priceless.
Half-sister of the new head of the New York Irish Kings. Daughter of Shane Gallagher, my father’s sworn enemy. And the bargaining chip that could tip the coming war in our favor.
Then the operation blows up.
The Russians want her too, and if I lose her, I lose my shot at finally earning my father’s respect.
Keeping her alive should be simple.
It’s not.
She’s clever. Defiant. Addictive. And she uses our explosive chemistry like a weapon, trying to force me to lower my guard.
She wants to play games?
Fine.
I never lose.
Until I realize she isn’t just a pawn.
She’s my queen.
And I’ll burn kingdoms to keep her safe.
And to make her mine.
