She\u2019s eighteen. Innocent. Forbidden.<\/p>\n
Martina De Rossi is off-limits, and not just because her brother is about to become the Don.<\/p>\n
When I agree to protect her while he\u2019s out waging a brutal war, it isn\u2019t only out of loyalty.<\/p>\n
It\u2019s because Martina is the perfect pawn in my game of revenge.<\/p>\n
Unfortunately, she\u2019s also temptation personified.<\/p>\n
Innocent eyes. A body to die for. Silky blond hair that begs to be wrapped around my fist.<\/p>\n
I\u2019m a master of staying in control, but with each day she spends with me inside the walls of my remote Italian castle, I can feel my resolve cracking.<\/p>\n
My gaze starts to drift.<\/p>\n
My touch starts to linger.<\/p>\n
And when she tempts, I realize this game we\u2019re playing might be one I won\u2019t win.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
