Savage Protector
Blurb:
A dark mafia romantic suspense featuring a morally gray, touch-her-and-die protector, a trauma nurse hunted for a deadly secret, and forced proximity that neither can escape.
She saves lives. I take them. Now hers is mine to protect.
Matteo
I knew the beautiful trauma nurse who stitched the bullet hole in my arm was the kind of woman I should stay far away from.
Then a dying woman pressed a secret into Serta’s hand.
By morning, killers were hunting her.
They made one mistake.
They came for her in front of me.
Now Serta is under my protection, whether she wants it or not. And the closer I pull her into my world, the more I realize keeping her alive isn’t my biggest problem.
It’s letting her go.
Serta
I’ve spent my life taking care of people.
Matteo Valeri is the kind of man I should know better than to save.
He’s ruthless. Dangerous. Mafia.
He’s also the man who steps between me and a bullet without hesitating.
A dying woman left me a key to a secret powerful men will kill to bury, and suddenly my ordinary life is gone. My apartment isn’t safe. The police can’t protect me. And the only place my enemies can’t reach me is inside Matteo’s world.
I should be terrified of the man protecting me.
Instead, I’m beginning to trust him.
Want him.
And wonder if the most dangerous thing Matteo Valeri could steal from me has nothing to do with my life.
It’s my heart.
