Torrio Empire

I made a mistake. At sixteen years old I fell for the wrong man. Callum Torrio. Ruthless billionaire. Dangerous villain. My best friend's father. At twenty-one, I gave up hope that he would ever notice me. He's twenty years older than me and an arms dealer for the mob. The smart choice would be to forget he ever existed. But that's not possible. His icy blue gaze, sculpted physique, and huge rough hands play a vivid part in my dreams. Then one night everything changes. Every fantasy I ever had, he brings to life. Dominant and possessive, he praises and worships me. He makes me feel like a woman, when all my life, I've felt sheltered and controlled. But Callum has dark secrets and a past that refuses to let go. I knew he was a bad man, but I never would have anticipated this... It contains dark themes and things that may be triggering to some.

But nothing will stop him from keeping me by his side. A king needs his queen. Where do you hide when the pain becomes suffocating and the man you thought you knew turns out to be the villain?

Shattered. Broken beyond repair. I'm the shell of the woman I used to be. The deeper I fall from reality, the worse things get. Only there's one person who refuses to let me derail. Romero Pierce. Calloused. Sinister. Lethal. He's my father's second in command, and so handsome it's disgusting. Assigned the duty of being my babysitter, aka personal bodyguard, he thinks he can protect me, but I don't want his protection. What I want is security, safety, freedom. Everything changes when I choose to leave and find myself in the very town where my father grew up. Trying to heal is hard enough, but it's nearly impossible with icy Romero watching my every move. Over time, he starts to make me feel things I thought I'd never feel again, reminding me I'm not broken but on my journey to heal, and I realize I'm helping him heal as well. It doesn't take long to discover Romero has deep, ugly secrets he's trying to keep, but nothing can remain a secret forever. When the truth's revealed will the man I consider my enemy become the only man who can save me? **This book contains triggering content that might be difficult for some listeners.**
