FALLING FOR THE WRONG KNIGHT BROTHER
Blurb.
On the night Valentine Ashford catches her boyfriend in bed with her stepmother, she does the one thing she had never imagined herself doing.
She goes home with a handsome stranger.
One unforgettable night, no names and no promises.
The next morning, she walks away believing she will never see him again.
Until she comes face to face with him at her wedding meeting. Only then does she discover the devastating truth.
The stranger who spent the night in her bed is Adrian Knight, the younger brother of the man she is about to marry.
Bound by a marriage arranged to save her family's collapsing empire, Valentine is determined to honor her duty. Adrian is equally determined to protect his brother, even if it means pretending they have never met.
But stolen glances become dangerous conversations. Accidental touches become impossible temptations. And with every wedding plan that forces them together, the line between duty and desire begins to blur.
Just when Valentine convinces herself she can bury the truth forever, one unexpected discovery threatens to unravel every promise she's made.

Chapter: Chapter SixValentine. The sound of a car horn echoed outside exactly at ten o'clock. Valentine peeked through the curtains, a sleek black Aston Martin was parked outside her gate.Leaning casually against the driver's door was Adrian Knight.Even from a distance, he looked entirely too relaxed.She took a deep breath before grabbing her handbag.Sienna looked up from the couch, a grin already spreading across her face."So""No.""You haven't even let me start.""I know that look.""I was just going to say he is ridiculously attractive."Valentine rolled her eyes."Behave.""I always do.""You most certainly don't."Sienna followed her to the front door."Oh, and Valentine?""What?""Try not to accidentally fall in love with your future brother in law."Valentine shot her a look, "You are impossible.""So I have been told."Adrian opened the passenger door before she could reach for the handle."Morning.""Morning."She climbed inside, carefully avoiding his eyes.The car pulled away in comfort

Chapter: Chapter FiveValentine Valentine barely made it through the front door before kicking off her heels.The silence of the house wrapped around her like a heavy blanket.She dropped her handbag onto the console table and leaned against the wall, closing her eyes.Today had been exhausting, seeing Adrian again, pretending they had never metWatching him shake her hand as though he hadn't kissed those same fingers barely Twenty four hours earlier, It had taken everything she had not to fall apart."Well," a familiar voice called from the living room, "judging by that face, I would say the fitting didn't go well."Valentine opened her eyes and smiled weakly."You let yourself in again?""I have a spare key.""And yet you abuse the privilege every time.""I prefer to think of it as being a supportive best friend."Sienna emerged carrying two mugs of coffee and one was immediately handed to Valentine."I figured you would need this.""I definitely do."The two women settled onto the couch.For a while, n

Chapter: Chapter FourAdrianThe ride back from the hotel was unusually quiet. Alexander kept his attention on the road while Adrian stared out the passenger window, replaying the lunch in his head.All he could think about was her, valentine emma or whatever her real name was.He still couldn't believe the woman he had spent the most amazing night with was about to become his sister in law."You have been unusually quiet Adrian," Alexander said and Adrian looked over."Have I?""You haven't made a single joke in the last ten minutes, that's a record for you.""Maybe I am growing up."Alexander snorted."I highly doubt it."Silence settled between them again before Adrian spoke."Can I ask you something?""Sure""What do you actually know about Valentine?"Alexander frowned slightly."And you are back." "come on brother to brother, just humor me" "What do you mean?""I mean who is she? What is she like?"Alexander shrugged."She is intelligent, Well educated and graceful. She has an excellent reputation,

Chapter: Chapter ThreeAdrianAdrian reached across the bed with a sleepy groan but his hand met nothing but cold sheets.He frowned for a second, the warmth that had surrounded him only moments ago was gone. Opening one eye, he sat up and looked around the luxurious suite, it was empty.The bathroom door stood open and there was no sound of running water. No clothes scattered across the floor, she was gone.A slow smile tugged at his lips."So that's how we are playing this?"Throwing the duvet aside, he stood and noticed a small folded note resting on the pillow and picked it up.Thanks for helping me forget.EmmaAdrian chuckled at the signed name, "Emma."He shook his head."That wasn't your real name."He folded the note carefully and slipped it into his wallet instead of throwing it away.He had no idea why, perhaps because she was different. She hadn't asked who he was. Hadn't asked for his number. Hadn't tried to stay until morning. She had simply disappeared and he doubted he would ever see her ag

Chapter: Chapter TwoValentine The first thing Valentine noticed was the silence, not the peaceful kind.The dangerous kind that came after making a decision you couldn't take back.Sunlight streamed through floor to ceiling windows, bathing the luxurious hotel suite in a warm golden glow. She blinked against the brightness, her head pounding faintly from the whiskey she barely remembered drinking.Then she felt the unfamiliar weight draped across her waist and her breathing suddenly became uneven as she turned her head to see the handsome sleeping beauty of a man.He was asleep beside her, one arm resting possessively around her as if it belonged there. His dark hair was tousled from sleep, his face stripped of the confidence he had worn the night before. Without the teasing smile and sharp gray eyes watching her, he looked younger.Fragments of the previous night rushed back all at once, him walking up to her, their laughter, the way he had looked at her as though she wasn't broken, then his lips, his

Chapter: Chapter OneValentineThe amber lights of The Velvet Room blurred into soft golden halos as laughter echoed around the crowded bar but none of it reached her.Valentine swirled the untouched whiskey in her glass, watching the ice slowly melt. The bartender had already asked twice if she wanted another drink but she was yet to take a sip. Just hours ago, she had walked into her apartment carrying takeout and a ridiculous chocolate cake to celebrate her second anniversary, instead, she had found her boyfriend tangled in bed with the last person she had ever expected, her stepmother.A humorless laugh escaped her lips, she should probably cry, instead, she felt empty."That's a dangerous expression."The deep masculine voice pulled her from her thoughts and she immediately looked up at the man behind the deep voice, he was tall, broad shoulders, expensively dressed in a charcoal suit that looked tailor made. His dark hair was slightly messy, as though he had spent the evening running a hand through

THE MAFIA KING'S OBSESSION
Liana Rossi was supposed to deliver flowers not become the bride.
One stormy night, and a simple delivery to the powerful Moretti estate turns into every woman’s nightmare when she is mistaken for a runaway mafia bride and forced down the aisle by the most feared man in the underworld.
Cassian Moretti is cold, ruthless, and dangerously untouchable. He doesn’t believe in love, only loyalty, power, and control. To protect his empire, he forces a terrified stranger to wear another woman’s dress and become his wife.
But Cassian soon realizes Liana’s arrival was no accident, someone wanted her in his house.
Someone dangerous.
As enemies close in and buried secrets begin to surface, Liana discovers she may not be the nobody she believed herself to be. Her past is stained with blood, her identity is worth killing for, and her forced husband may be the only thing standing between her and death.
The problem?
The more she fights him, the more possessive he becomes.
And in Cassian’s world, once he claims something, he never lets it go.
What happens when the wrong bride becomes the one woman a mafia king is willing to burn the world for?

Chapter: Chapter Forty NineLianna"Cassian, no!”I held his face with one hand and pressed my other hand to the place on his side that wouldn’t stop bleeding. I kissed him. Kissed him and kissed him.When I tried to push the hair back from his forehead, I left blood in its place. His blood. God, there was so much of it. Too much.“Don’t die.”He hadn’t promised me that. He’d made me three promises, but he had never promised me he wouldn’t die.I’d never asked him to promise that. I’d never“Don’t die,” I whispered just to him.He was too still, and when my sister touched my shoulder, and I looked up at her through the blur the haze of my tears caused, I sucked in a trembling breath.Her face, the look in her eyes, telling me it was bad.“There’s a helicopter on its way to take him to the hospital,” she whispered, kneeling down beside me, holding me when I turned my attention back to him.They would take him away. They would take him away, and I would never see him again. Why did they do that? Why did they take

Chapter: Chapter Forty Eight CassianLianna and Bianca sat on the couch talking in whispers when I walked in.Lianna at least had the grace to give me a meek smile.“You shouldn’t be here,” I said to her.“She’s my sister, Cassian.”“Why do I feel like I’m hitting a wall at every turn?” I asked.“For once, I’m taking his side, Lianna. This is my business, and I don’t want you involved,” Bianca said, standing.“I’m not letting you face those men alone.”“She’s not alone. I will be there with her,” I said.“Luce, I did this. I brought this on us. I had Dominic kidnap Jacob. I ultimately was responsible for Luke being shot.” She turned to me. “I’m so sorry about Jacob. I just, I wanted to scare Franco. I didn’t even think about Natalie. It was all about sending a message to Franco. Everything. And every t

I’ll deal with my son myself. You deal with the DeMarco cunt, and Pagani will deal with his son.” He rose to his feet. “I’m fucking tired. You called me here for this bullshit?”“Sit down,” I spoke quietly, not rising but remaining where I sat, feeling more in control than I ever had in my life. I knew what I wanted, what I needed to do. It would all truly end tonight.“Be careful, son,” he said, but he lowered himself back down into his chair.“We are dealing with this publicly. We are forgiving what’s

Chapter: Chapter Forty SixCassianI wasn't surprised when Dominic didn’t show up.I also wasn’t surprised to find Lianna making her way down the stairs, dressed, clumsily working her crutches.My father and Roman stood in the foyer watching her, my father looking at her with tired eyes rather that the contempt he normally showed. I walked up to her with a look that said I’d deal with her later, but when I tried to take her crutches and carry her down, she refused.“I’m not an invalid. I just need to get used to these. Besides, my ankle can take a little weight.” She flinched as she demonstrated putting a bit of weight on it. “Pigheaded.”I walked the steps with her to make sure she didn’t fall. By the time we got down, Natalie walked into the house with a sleeping Jacob in her arms.“Father, Roman, why don’t you go ahead into the dining room.”They both nodded and left. Everyone was tired.Rainey went to Natalie and took the bag off her shoulder. I had woken her to prepare a room.“Natalie, I’m sorry to keep y

Chapter: Chapter Forty FiveCassianLianna sat silently beside me.“What is it?” I asked after a few minutes.“Effie is Dominic’s daughter Bianca confirmed it.”“I’m not surprised.”“They fell in love, Cassian. They were young and just fell in love. You were right in what you thought. That’s why Papa sent her away, disowning her.He gave her an ultimatum: abort or leave. She left.”I remained silent, understanding a little more of Bianca. I’d pegged her to be a hateful, power hungry bitch. She might well be, but she was also stronger than i gave her credit for.“Dominic was supposed to tell your father, but he never did.”I glanced at Lianna. “I can’t say I’m surprised.”“He let her go all alone.” Lianna looked off into the distance. “He sent her money, though.” She rolled her eyes.“Lianna.” I don’t know why I felt the need to defend Dominic. I wasn’t really; I just needed to explain how things were at our house. How my father was. “My father is a very domineering man. When we were kids, Sergio was the only one

Chapter: Chapter Forty FourLiannaWhat the hell are you doing here?” I asked, standing and leaning my weight on my crutches. I didn’t feel half as confident as I somehow managed to sound. “How did you get in?”He stood in the light just on the other side of the coffee table looking disheveled, his shirt untucked, his hair messy, his face bruised. He gave me a lopsided grin, and I really looked at him for the first time, the dimple on his right cheek disarming me momentarily. His eyes were a light blue gray, the lashes thick and darker than his blond hair. He was tall, well over six feet, but he had a leaner build than Cassian, although still muscular. Powerful.I returned my gaze to his face, saw his grin widen. The darkness in his eyes reminded me who he was.He tucked the gun into the back of his jeans before reaching into his pocket and taking something out.I cocked my head to the side when he held it out to show me, not understanding right away.

Chapter: Chapter FourLainaOutside, the debris and bodies that had previously littered the courtyard had been cleared away.That should have made the sight before me less disturbing but It didn't.People had gathered in the square, forming a wide circle around something or someone at its center. Their voices filled the night in low, anxious murmurs, but the moment Trey and his men began walking me through the crowd, the sound gradually faded.Heads turned as Eyes followed me.And then silence fell.I didn't need to see what everyone was staring at.The scent of blood had already reached me, Thick, Metallic, Fresh.And beneath it was another scent I knew better than I wanted to.My father's.Trey's men parted, revealing him.John Lennon was on his knees in the dirt.For one suspended second, I couldn't breathe.My eyes traveled over him slowly, taking in the blood covering his face and clothes, the bruises already darkening his skin, and the defiance still burning inside him.Then his eyes lifted and foun

Chapter: Chapter ThreeLainaI couldn't stop staring at Trey, he stood several feet away from me, dressed in black, his body broader than I remembered, his face harder. There was a scar cutting faintly across his jaw that I had never seen before and another disappeared beneath the collar of his shirt, he had changed into someone I didn't recognize anymore, yet my wolf recognized him.She was trembling inside me, desperate to run to him, desperate to touch him, desperate to make sure this wasn't some cruel dream, the word mate echoing through my mind.But he looked at me as though I were his enemy, I followed his gaze as his eyes dropped to my wedding dress again and the corner of his mouth lifted but it wasn't a smile, It was something colder."So," he murmured. "I am so sorry for ruining your wedding day"My throat tightened, "I wasn't"He gave a low laugh before I could even finish saying anything "Don't."I swallowed "Trey, please.""Please?"He took another step toward me and I instinctively stepped ba

Chapter: Chapter TwoLainaWe had been standing by the window for atleast twenty minutes now, listening to the screams unable to do anything when the door exploded inward catching me off guard and I screamed.My father barely had time to turn before three men stormed into the room, they weren't from our pack, I knew that immediately.Their clothes were dark, their weapons unfamiliar, and the expressions on their faces held none of the panic I had seen on our warriors outside."Who are you?" I managed to askThe largest of the three men lifted his weapon."Don't speak unless you're spoken to"My father froze as I grabbed the back of his shirt."Father" I yelled but he didn't look at me."Who sent you?" he managed to ask though but no one answered.One of the men moved toward us as my father shifted into a defensive stance."Don't touch my daughter."The stranger smiled."That's not your decision anymore."Before my father could react, another man grabbed him from behind.My father had been Alpha of our pack

Chapter: Chapter OneLainaThirty minutes, In thirty minutes, I would become the wife of a man older than my own father.I stared at myself in the mirror and barely recognized the woman staring back, the wedding gown was beautiful, I actually liked it and that was the cruelest part.The white silk hugged my body before falling into a long, elegant train that pooled around my feet, the tiny crystals had been sewn into the bodice, catching the light whenever I moved. My hair had been pulled into a complicated braid, with a few loose curls framing my face, I looked like a bride a happy bride who had chosen this, but the reality was far from it. I looked away from the mirror, there had to be another way.I had repeated those words to myself so many times over the past month that they had almost become a prayer and yet no solution, my father was going to marry me off to Alpha Oliver in thirty minutes and seal my fate forever. I couldn't marry him, how could I when he was old enough to have watched my father g
