Complications
Three stories. One problem. The wrong person feels right.
They weren’t looking for this.
They weren’t supposed to want it.
But now that it’s started, there’s no clean way out.
Retribution
Matteo Leone is a mostly legitimate businessman—until an under-the-radar debt collection puts Connor in his hands. One look is enough for Matteo to keep him, crossing a line without a single regret. When Connor learns the truth, he has to choose: go back to the life that broke him—or stay with the man who decided he was his.
Temptation
Michel Laurant knows better than to want what he can’t have—especially when that someone is Matteo Leone’s reckless, off-limits nephew. Elio has spent years pushing boundaries, but this time he pushes too far… and Michel finally breaks. What starts as one mistake turns into something neither of them can control—and walking away might cost more than giving in.
Collision
Joey and Frankie have been at each other’s throats for as long as anyone can remember—and no one remembers why. When someone they both swore to protect is put at risk, they’re forced to work together whether they want to or not. Now that they can’t avoid each other, it’s either going to end in blood or in the truth that they’ve been fighting a lot longer than either of them will admit.
This collection features three interconnected short stories, each following a different couple. These stories include mature themes and instances of violence. Retribution was previously included in Virtues and Vices, Vol. II. It’s been reworked and reedited. Cover will be updated.
