There were always whispers about my roommate at Hillcrest Academy.
The wealthiest of the wealthy sent their kids to our boarding school, and Brooke Bennett had been at the top, though I never quite knew why. She was fun and outgoing, but she kept quiet about her family. The only things she showed me were photographs of her brothers.
I became fascinated with her second-oldest brother. Kai Bennett.
He was the most of them all. Smoldering. Hypnotic. Alluring.
Kai had eyes that pulled me in and a face that haunted my dreams.
Then I met him.
He came to our school with their father, and that's when I learned what kind of family Brooke came from. They were mafia, and Brooke's oldest brother was dead. Her father said accident, but Brooke said murder.
Three months later, her father died, and Kai became the head of the Bennett Family. Brooke left Hillcrest for good, and that was the last time I saw her.
Fourteen years later, I'm staring at her face on the television. Brooke is missing.
Two days later, Kai Bennett kidnaps me.
“I am everything that’s bad in this world. You are everything that’s good, and I am turning you into me. I hate myself when I look at you. You reflect everything wrong in me, every time I’m inside of you.”
Excerpt:
“I felt his pulse too. It was as fast as mine.
“You may hate me. You may loathe me.” His hand slid back from my neck and moved down agonizingly slowly, between my breasts to my stomach.
I gasped, and he slid his hand under my pajama shorts until they rested over my clit. I surged upward at his touch, my head falling back, everything in me starting to tremble.
One of his fingers dipped inside of me. “But you goddamn want me.” And with that, a second finger joined his first and he took hold of my tank, his mouth slamming down on mine.”
Review:
Mafia romance will always appeal to me more than any other romance trope. It probably leads back to my thing for the anti-hero, the bad boy, and the ones that color outside the lines. Tijan wrote a really good one here with “Bennett Mafia”, it’s fast-paced, edge of your seat, and full of chemistry. Kai and Riley are intense together, you have to read this one!
“There was this fight, this dance between us. Good versus evil-but I wasn’t perfect, and Kai wasn’t evil. He just did evil things. He was good that had been twisted into something darker.”
