Beautiful Violence: A Dark Mafia Romance

By Jade West

She thought catering his charity gala would launch her career. She never expected it to bind her to a man like Dante Valentini-Chicago's most feared mafia underboss, dangerously obsessed and impossibly protective.
Jessica Brooks has fought for every piece of her new life. Her catering business is her freedom, her fresh start after surviving years of abuse. The last thing she wants is a powerful, possessive man inserting himself into her world.
But Dante decides she's his the moment he sees her.
And Dante Valentini doesn't lose.

He pays off her debts. He destroys her enemies. He shields her with a loyalty that borders on violent obsession. Jessica should run-but for the first time in years, she feels safe. Wanted. Alive.
When her abusive ex resurfaces, Dante shows Jessica exactly what it means to be protected by a man who rules Chicago's underworld.

Now she must choose:
Walk away from the only man who's ever made her feel truly alive...
or surrender to the darkness and become the queen of a monster.
Perfect for readers who love mafia romance, obsessive heroes, forced proximity, touch-her-and-die energy, morally gray men, wounded heroines, and high-heat dark romance with a guaranteed HEA.
