"You were his prisoner. You're my princess."

Gio Moretti is the glue that holds the Amato crime family together—the boss when the boss is away, an expert in tactical warfare, a trusted enforcer, the liaison, the negotiator, the mastermind, the chess master. But a life of always putting everyone else first has left him trapped in an inescapable darkness. That is, until Darcy Cunningham and her daughter, Delilah, walk into his life and make him feel alive in a way he never has before.

Gio sees Darcy as an angel, the ray of sunlight needed to chase away his darkness. But Darcy is haunted by a darkness of her own. A single mom on the run from her abusive husband, Darcy finds herself in New Orleans, out of money and with nowhere to stay. She meets Gio at a perfectly imperfect time and takes a job as his live-in maid. Darcy is scared she can’t trust Gio, scared he’ll hurt her. But, while Darcy was her ex-husband’s prisoner, she’ll be Gio’s princess.

What can I say?? It's fun embodying different characters, especially for spicy scenes because every character has different tastes and comfort levels. I get to explore things as a writer I may never feel comfortable doing in real life and things I really want to do in real life. ⁣

I think found family might be my favorite trope ever. In small ways, I think it’s made it into every book I’ve written. And I can already see how there will be elements of found family in my upcoming series.

The family that Darcy, Gio, and Delilah create for themselves in 𝐌𝐢𝐧𝐞 𝐭𝐨 𝐋𝐨𝐯𝐞 is so beautiful, so pure, so heartwarming and wholesome. Gio is there for both Darcy and Delilah in the ways they need and they complete him in ways that make him realize he was empty without them.

Special shoutout to Caroline and all the "Mine" babies that happen off the page. There are always more chapters to be written and these characters continue to write their own, living in my mind and heart. I hope they will yours as well. Dream of them.

There is a family tree included in Mine to Love which details all the heirs, showing how the love we see in these pages continues to bloom beyond the book.

This line is everything. It hits home for me, because I know--one day--I'll have someone who appreciates my love and protects it. That is what I manifested while writing this novel. ⁣

“𝐘𝐨𝐮 𝐚𝐫𝐞 𝐧𝐨𝐭 𝐡𝐨𝐩𝐞𝐥𝐞𝐬𝐬. You are strong. You are smart. You are safe. You are healthy. You are…beautiful.” I can’t keep the word from escaping me even though I know it may make her feel uneasy, especially given our position. But, she deserves to hear it. “And, 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐰𝐨𝐧’𝐭 𝐛𝐞 𝐡𝐚𝐮𝐧𝐭𝐞𝐝 𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐫, Darcy. There will come a day when you find yourself happy. And, yo𝐮 𝐰𝐢𝐥𝐥 𝐡𝐚𝐯𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐥𝐢𝐟𝐞 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐥𝐨𝐯𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐡𝐚𝐯𝐞 𝐚𝐥𝐰𝐚𝐲𝐬 𝐝𝐞𝐬𝐞𝐫𝐯𝐞𝐝. You will have your second chance.”⁣
⁣
Darcy starts coughing then. I know it’s just because she’s been crying so hard. Saliva has probably pooled at the back of her throat. She pulls back then and looks at me. Still positioned on my lap with a wet face and red eyes, she asks, “𝐇𝐨𝐰 𝐝𝐨 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐤𝐧𝐨𝐰?” ⁣
⁣
I smile softly then and bring one of my hands to her cheek. Gently, I wipe away the remnants of her tears and then, taking advantage of our intimate position, brush her hair behind her ears. She looks so innocent, so delicate, so fragile. Everything in me wants to protect her, heal her, love her. ⁣

I don't know if 𝐂𝐡𝐚𝐩𝐭𝐞𝐫 42 is Instagram appropriate. 🤭 But let me just say...cabana on the beach in Mexico, very dominant, toys, raw, and it ends like this...⁣
⁣
My body shakes as Gio turns off the device, leaving us with nothing but the sound of our breathes and crashing waves. I feel raw, tender to the touch. I sure hope that was all Gio had planned because I don’t think I can take anything else. It’s then that Gio repositions my body and covers me with plenty of blankets. Despite the chill I experienced earlier, my skin is now hot to the touch. Still, I welcome Gio’s warmth and he settles in beside me and wraps his arms around me. He kisses my forehead and brushes my no doubt reckless-looking hair from my face. ⁣
⁣
“How do you feel, my love?” he asks. I can hardly speak. My throat is raw from all the yelling I did. So, I just nod my head to say good and kiss him softly on the lips. ⁣

“Because this is just the warmup, my love. It would be a crime to make you 💦 without giving you what you truly want.” ⁣
“And what do I want?” I ask, wrapping my arms around his neck. ⁣
“My tongue inside your sweet, tight c**t, toying with you from the inside-out, flicking your c**t until you break.” ⁣

Before I met Darcy, I loathed the idea of having someone in my home, of sharing my safe haven with them. Perhaps, I thought I’d lose my solitude altogether. The moment I saw Darcy, I felt she was different. Well, I felt a lot of things. I just…I knew she was someone I wanted in my space. And, now, here we are, and it’s the perfect ending to an anything-but-perfect day. I lower my gaze then from the window to my glass of amber liquid. Feeling my lips draw into a smile, I take a sip of my bourbon to hide it. I don’t want to complicate things with words or make her uncomfortable again after we spent the day making up lost ground. But Darcy notices my change in demeanor.

“𝐖𝐡𝐚𝐭’𝐬 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐥𝐨𝐨𝐤 𝐟𝐨𝐫?” she asks. I swallow my bourbon and tilt my head to the side, not answering right away.

Finally, I say, “𝐈 𝐥𝐢𝐤𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐬𝐢𝐥𝐞𝐧𝐜𝐞.” Darcy nods and shifts her attention from me to the rainstorm just outside. Sensing her look away, I turn my attention to her and allow my eyes to caress her in all the ways I wish my fingers could. Her wavy blonde hair drapes over her shoulders. What I wouldn’t give to run my fingers through it, brush it back from hiding her perfect face, and kiss her neck—softly, at first, and then… “𝐈 𝐥𝐢𝐤𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐬𝐢𝐥𝐞𝐧𝐜𝐞 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐲𝐨𝐮,” I add, before my thoughts run away with my self control.

“How do you feel?” he asks me.

I let out a quiet laugh. “Obedient. Anything you say, anything you want—I trust you to make me feel good.” He smiles and nods. Then, his eyes drift down to my br**sts still carefully restrained by my bustier.

“Then I say, it’s time we remove this.” At that, Gio reaches around me and brings his hands to the clasp on my bra. With ease, he undoes the hooks and the dainty fabric tugs away from my skin. I feel my br**sts sink as I’m left completely exposed before him. But, I am not ashamed and I never will be again. Because, I have a man—a goregous, handsome man—who holds my heart and my body with gentleness and possessiveness. His love for me has shown me that I’m worthy. His desire for me has shown me that I am desirable. 𝐈𝐧 𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐞𝐲𝐞𝐬, 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐞 𝐢𝐬 𝐧𝐨𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐰𝐫𝐨𝐧𝐠 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐦𝐞. 𝐀𝐧𝐝, 𝐢𝐭 𝐢𝐬 𝐭𝐡𝐫𝐨𝐮𝐠𝐡 𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐞𝐲𝐞𝐬 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐈 𝐰𝐢𝐬𝐡 𝐭𝐨 𝐬𝐞𝐞 𝐦𝐲𝐬𝐞𝐥𝐟 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐭 𝐨𝐟 𝐦𝐲 𝐥𝐢𝐟𝐞.

𝐖𝐡𝐞𝐧 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐫𝐞𝐞 𝐨𝐟 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐦 𝐝𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐞 𝐭𝐨𝐠𝐞𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐫 𝐚𝐭 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐰𝐞𝐝𝐝𝐢𝐧𝐠...

This is one of my favorite scenes in the entire novel. In fact, my including Damon and Ana’s wedding in 𝐌𝐢𝐧𝐞 𝐭𝐨 𝐋𝐨𝐯𝐞 was mostly so I could have the Gio and Darcy dancing scene. 🥹

“𝐈 𝐝𝐢𝐝𝐧’𝐭 𝐬𝐚𝐲 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐜𝐚𝐧 𝐥𝐞𝐚𝐯𝐞.” Gio’s voice gives life to those overactive butterflies, yet again, and makes me wish I hadn’t ruined my underwear. I press my thighs together as an unexpected slickness develops between my slit. Maybe it wasn’t just a dream. Who was I kidding? I knew the moment I awoke there was truth in it. I just didn’t realize how much. “That is, unless you want to?” Gio gives me the choice to stay or leave, never one to force anything on me. And, my decision is the easiest one I’ve had to make in what feels like forever.

“No, no, 𝐈 𝐝𝐨𝐧’𝐭 𝐰𝐚𝐧𝐭 𝐭𝐨 𝐥𝐞𝐚𝐯𝐞,” I admit.

“Good,” he replies. “Because 𝐆𝐨𝐝 𝐝𝐢𝐝𝐧’𝐭 𝐠𝐢𝐯𝐞 𝐦𝐞 𝐭𝐰𝐨 𝐚𝐫𝐦𝐬 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐧𝐨𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐠.” Gio’s smile matches mine as he begins guiding me around the dancefloor once more—one arm holding up Delilah and one wrapped tightly, possessively and protectively around me.

There’s a slight emotional twinge here for me because I’ve said before “I don’t want to leave.” And so to include that in Darcy’s dialogue was my way of putting a little piece of me into this story. There are several pieces actually. 😌

Gio worries Delilah will be scared of him after seeing him go after her attacker, but she runs to him and jumps into his arms calling him 𝘋𝘢𝘥𝘥𝘺 because to her, Gio is her real dad. 🥹

The relationship between Delilah and Gio in Mine to Love is so sweet and wholesome. If you love a single parent story / found family / healing love / overprotective MC, Mine to Love may be perfect for you.

You know what's cool about writing series? There's room for men like Damon and like Gio within the same world. ⁣
⁣
Damon is the dominant, somewhat emotionally unavailable, alpha. ⁣
⁣
Gio is the overprotective, gentle, cinammon roll. ⁣
⁣
Both would destroy the world for their girl. But, in the bedroom, they are different. Writing these different characters has been fun. I'm excited about new characters and personality differences to bring into my new series. ⁣

It's not Saturday but it's still spicy. Maybe we should call it Frisky Friday or Fantasy Friday? Because some of these scenes, I'm not even sure if they're physically possible. ⁣
⁣
So much of being a writer is having an imagination. 💭⁣

“Tell me, my perfect girl, how do we taste together?” I pinch my eyes closed, savoring the taste of us as if this is a religious experience. When I open them again, I find Damon looking back at with me with a dark lust clouding his features, a wickedness that lets me know he’s done being gentle. ⁣
⁣
“Like Heaven,” I say. Damon laughs and kisses me. As he does, he returns his attention to my n**ples. His touch is so light as he brushes his knuckles over them that I find myself moving against him for more stimulation. My insides contract with pleasure, though not enough to find a release. I almost wish we had some of our toys. ⁣
⁣
“So desperate to 💦,” he moans. “Alright, my love.” Damon stands then. Offering me his hand, he prompts me to do the same. “You remember our rules? If anything hurts or makes you uncomfortable, you let me know.” ⁣
⁣
“Yes,” I say. “I remember.” ⁣
⁣
“𝒢𝑜𝑜𝒹 𝑔𝒾𝓇𝓁. Now, turn around, bend over, and put your hands on the floor.” ⁣
⁣
“Hands on the floor? What—?”⁣
⁣
“Did I stutter?”⁣
⁣
~~~a commanding, dominant MC never gets old ⁣

The 𝐌𝐢𝐧𝐞 𝐭𝐨 𝐋𝐨𝐯𝐞 tropes are soooo good! ⁣
⁣
This was my first time writing a curvy FMC and a single mom / child as a supporting character. It was an amazing experience and readers are loving Darcy and Delilah. ⁣
⁣
I hope this novel makes you feel seen just as much as Gio does for Darcy. ⁣
⁣
Check it out on February 11th!!! We're soooo close! ⁣

Blood & Bourbon series...

a Mafia Romance series following the Amato crime family in New Orleans

Blood and Bourbon is a mafia romance series following the Amato crime family in New Orleans. Like bourbon, the men in this series are strong, sweet, sensual, and refined yet ruthless.

All books in this series are standalone mafia romances featuring unique tropes; however, they are best read in consecutive order due to the interconnected mafia conflict that builds throughout the series.

Kick your reading off with Mine to Protect and get to know our main mafia family. This one features the forbidden love trope, tons of suspense, and is a slow burn.

Next up, Mine to Tease is the steamy one featuring the love story between Damon, a top Amato official, and Anastasia, the princess of a rival criminal syndicate. This one is steamy and kinky, and features the enemies-to-lovers trope.

The third standalone in this series is Mine to Love. Coming February 11, 2025, Mine to Love is an emotional, romance-filled story between Gio Moretti, the glue holding the Amato family together, and single-mom on the run, Darcy Cunningham.
