Savage Lover
by Sophie Lark
Book 3 in Brutal Birthright
Nero and Camille are a combustible opposites-attract pairing - he's a mafia prince drowning in darkness and she's a scrappy mechanic holding her family together. The heist subplot gives it a Fast & Furious energy that sets it apart from typical mafia romance.
