She insulted the don of New York to his face.
He decided to keep her.
Mara Beckett has a mouth that has gotten her into trouble her entire life. She just didn't expect the trouble to be six-foot-three, Italian, and completely unwilling to let her leave New York until she stops being a "liability."
Dante Mancini is the head of the Mancini crime family—cold, controlled, and used to people crossing the street to avoid him. Mara crosses the street toward him just to see what he does.
What he does is become entirely obsessed with her.
Forced into his protection after witnessing something she shouldn't, Mara finds herself living in a townhouse that costs more than some countries' GDP, waging a war of attrition with a man who finds her professionally irritating and personally fascinating. Dante finds himself doing things he has no framework for—like laughing. Like leaving notes on pillows. Like realising the threat to her might be the only one he can't control his way out of.
She knows what he is. She's read the folder. She's choosing him anyway.
The Don's Disaster is a full-length, standalone HEA mafia romance with explicit heat, genuine darkness, and enough banter to get you through a New York October. Book One of the Sinners' Circle series.
18+ only. Contains explicit content, morally grey heroes, and scenes of violence.
