The Mob Boss and the Assassin
(2026)(The second book in the Love, Loyalty & Larceny series)
A novel by Jocelyn Drake and Colleen Helme
WANTED: Executive Assistant. Must be organized, discreet, and definitely not a trained assassin investigating her boss for murder.
Julia checks two of those boxes. The third one? Not so much.
When her father is murdered, Julia's family is convinced mob boss Quentin Vanetti is responsible. Julia's mission: get hired, get evidence, and get out. Easy.
Except Quentin is:
a) Possibly innocent
b) Definitely hot
c) Extremely suspicious of her "perfect" résumé
d) Really invested in their arguments about office décor.
Between fending off her family's questions, managing actual job responsibilities, and trying not to kiss her boss during their increasingly heated "professional disagreements," Julia is discovering that undercover work is a lot harder when you're catching feelings.
Her deadline is one month. Her cover is slipping. And her heart? Completely compromised.
Time to figure out the truth—before her family discovers she's fallen for the wrong man.
A sexy, suspenseful rom-com where the real crime is how good they look together. Warning: Contains mafia intrigue, workplace banter, one very inconvenient attraction, and complications neither of them saw coming. Perfect for fans of Lucy Score and Penny Reid.
Genre: Romance
