I auctioned my v-card to save my dying father—
then discovered the highest bidder was my mafia boss.
I'm an entry-level assistant to Atlantic City's most elusive bachelor, Nico Conti.
Sinfully gorgeous enforcer for his family's criminal empire.
Women line up for the privilege of warming his bed.
I can't afford that distraction.
My terminally ill father needs surgery that costs twenty thousand dollars which I don't have.
When a friend mentions how she made money auctioning her own innocence,
my stomach turns.
But desperation makes beggars of us all.
Within days, I'm on the auction block, trembling and exposed.
That's when I see him—Nico's smoldering, stormy eyes locked on me, his paddle raised high as he’s declared the auction winner.
Relief floods through me as he reaches up and his hand captures mine, pulling me close.
But his grip is firm… commanding… and fear spikes sharp and cold.
He intends to collect exactly what he purchased.
His voice leaves no room for misunderstanding.
I go with him because I have no choice.
I stay because of what happens next.
When he finally takes me to his bed,
my terror twists into something hotter, darker… a craving I never expected.
And when sunrise comes, I’m not just ruined.
I’m pregnant with the mafia enforcer’s child—
bound to a man who will never let what’s his walk away.
NICO is a dark, addictive mafia romance filled with power, obsession, and explosive chemistry—perfect for readers who crave possessive, controlling heroes and high-stakes passion.
While characters may reappear, every Conti Family book is a standalone romance that can be read independently.
