Corrupting Holly

Everyone else thinks she's too much.

He thinks she's perfect.

HOLLY

I kill bad men for a living.

Not innocent men.

Not good men.

Only the ones who deserve it.

It's worked out pretty well for me so far.

Until it doesn't.

Now I'm lying low with the Cosa Nostra while I sort out a problem I'd rather not talk about.

The last thing I need is Nero De Angelis.

Scarred.

Gruff.

And entirely too comfortable inserting himself into my business.

Unfortunately, the Don has other ideas.

Which means I'm stuck working alongside the underboss while he oversees the opening of the family's newest nightclub.

Nero De Angelis has opinions about everything.

What I should eat.

How often I should exercise.

Whether I should stop surviving on caffeine and spite.

(Apparently, the answer is yes.)

And an annoying tendency to see right through me.

The more time we spend together, the harder he becomes to resist.

NERO

Most women see my scars and look away.

Holly Gardner barely notices them.

She's too busy arguing with me.

The woman is chaos wrapped in blonde hair and bad decisions.

She has a temper that should drive me insane.

Instead, I find it calming.

More than that, she's the first person in a long time who makes me want something more.

Everyone else thinks she's too much.

I think she's perfect.

Holly thinks she's temporary.

She's wrong.

Because somewhere between the bickering, the tension, and the secrets she's determined to keep, she became mine.

And I don't let people take what's mine.
