His fingers pinched my chin, forcing my face up. "Learn to listen, to do as you're told, and quickly, before I have to teach you what happens when my orders are disobeyed. Understand, little kitten?" Fear shot straight down my spine. ******* Vivian thought her biggest problem was passing exams until the night her sweet, fun-loving boyfriend Tommy died in her arms, a casualty of the brutal mafia world he hid from her. With his last breath, he forces his ruthless cousin Niko to swear to protect her. Now Niko is the new mafia boss—cold, dominant, dangerous. The last thing he wants is to babysit his cousin’s girl, a naïve, ungrateful kitten dropped into a den of lions. But a vow is a vow, and protection quickly begins to look a lot like captivity. Locked inside his mansion, surrounded by guns, secrets and blood, Vivian sees the beast everyone fears—especially the night she accidentally watches him mercilessly claiming another woman in his bed. She should run. She should hate him. Instead, fear twists into dark desire, and their war of hate and obsession becomes a twisted enemies-to-lovers spiral neither of them can escape. Perfect for readers who love dark mafia romance, enemies to lovers, revenge, forced proximity,possessive antiheroes and steamy, obsessive love. Book 1 of Consumed by the Mafia
