My family protects this neighborhood, better than the cops ever could. When I find out the owner of a local club is pushing bad drugs that leave kids in a coma or dead, I'm happy to put him down.

As a member of the Romano crime family, my job is simple. Take out the trash. And any witnesses, take them out too. It's nice and simple that way. My family protects this neighborhood, better than the cops ever could. When I find out the owner of a local club is pushing bad drugs that leave kids in a coma or dead, I'm happy to put him down. The problem? I have a witness. Even worse, she's a girl from my past. Lily Barnes, the girl I’ve hungered for, night after night. Back then, she thought I was too dangerous to be with, and she’s right. But now that I have her in my possession, all bets are off. Lily. Mateo Romano isn't part of my plan. Neither is witnessing him commit murder or being captured and held under his protection. I broke up with him years ago because I knew what his family was, what he is. But with his chiseled muscles, dark eyes, and wicked touch, he's impossible to resist. It's not long before the one kiss leads to another. In a single reckless moment I surrender to my captor. Boundaries between us fade until there's nothing left but raw, carnal passion. At first, I thought the danger was his family, who want me dead. But I soon realize that Mateo is the only person standing between me and a madman, who will do anything to get the information I hold. A monster determined to hunt me down. Now, my dark captor is the only man who can save me. Witness is a standalone, full length novel within the Romano Brothers Series.
