Sometimes love isn’t
beautiful...
Meet Max & Courtney is
this southern mafia romance!
Blurb:
Sometimes
love isn’t beautiful...
Sometimes
the only way to describe it is beautifully brutal.
If you think
you know him… You’re wrong.
If you think
you know his family… Wrong again.
If you think
you know his story… You don’t.
If you did,
you’d likely wonder how the hell a man like Maximillian Adorite managed to make
it to this point in his life. At twenty-nine, he’s experienced more than most
people could only ever imagine, all thanks to his family. Organized crime they
call it. Mafia.
No matter
how they spin it, it comes down to one thing. Max gets what he wants. Except
for the one thing he wants most.
Her name is
Courtney Kogan.
And now that
he’s had a taste of her, Max knows he’ll never be able to let her go.
The Southern
Boy Mafia series is a spinoff from the Sniper 1 Security series. It has been
set up to be read without reading Sniper 1 Security, however, the characters
will frequently cross over.
Excerpt:
Sixteen Months ago.
“Holy shit,” she said softly. “That’s a nice car.”
“You like it?” he asked, sounding proud of himself.
“Holy shit,” she said softly. “That’s a nice car.”
“You like it?” he asked, sounding proud of himself.
“Who wouldn’t?” The newest model convertible Corvette
Stingray was likely the sexiest car of them all. She’d always had a fondness
for sports cars, but she’d never been truly fond of Corvettes. At least not
until they recently released the Stingray again.
Max stepped in front of the car, blocking her
view of the car. “Happy Birthday.”
“How…?” Confused she studied him. “How did you
know?”
“What? That it was your birthday or that you’d
want that car?”
Courtney peered around him. “That... That’s
for me?”
“It is,” he told her. “Now go check it out.”
Feeling slightly off kilter, Courtney slowly
moved around the car, her gaze darting between Max and the sleek shark gray
metallic car.
“Seriously, Max. This is… Well, it’s
incredible, but you know I can’t take this car.”
“Yes you can,” he told her simply.
The top was open so she peered inside, taking
in the sexy jet black leather interior. She wondered what it would feel like
behind the wheel.
“Get in,” he told her as he opened the
passenger side door.
When he slipped into the car, she grinned.
What the hell. It wouldn’t hurt to take it for a test drive, right?
And then, when they got back she’d tell him
she couldn’t keep it. Because falling in love with him was one thing, accepting
a car that likely cost him close to a hundred grand was something entirely
different.
--------------------------------------------------------------------
“Pull
over,” Max instructed when they were hidden by a copse of trees deep on his
land. He’d wanted her to test drive the Corvette, but admittedly he’d had
something else in mind as well.
Another birthday present for her.
Courtney stopped the car, frowning when she
looked over at him.
“Don’t look so upset,” he said with a smile.
“Now get out.”
If he wasn’t mistaken, there was a hint of
concern in her eyes, but he shrugged it off. He didn’t want to think that she’d
fear him for any reason. She’d surprised him earlier when she muttered for him
not to hurt her and he had to wonder where that was coming from.
Then again, she knew him, knew what he was
capable of. But in the same sense, if she ever thought he would hurt her, she
didn’t know him at all.
Once she met him at the front of the car. Max
turned to her, taking her into his arms and crushing his mouth to hers, his
hands trailing the thin fabric that covered her. She’d worn a skirt, which had
been his suggestion and again, he’d had something in mind when he made the
request. He had to wonder whether she’d figure that out yet or not.
Easing her back onto the hood of the car, Max
pulled back enough to look at her.
“Kick off your shoes. Wouldn’t want you to
scratch the paint.”
Courtney grinned, and her shoes hit the
ground.
“Now for my next gift,” he told her.
“And that would be?” She asked, grinning.
“An orgasm. On the hood of your car.”
Hmm. I like the sound of that.”
