He looked to where the battle was still raging, his own lip caught in his teeth. “I’m no good to them here,” he said. He gave me a crooked and very wry grin. “I’m not a soldier for the Massimos. I’m their public face. The one no one suspects of being involved in anything. That’s what makes me so valuable. Go. I’ll follow as soon as you’re safe.”
Something in my chest cracked at the danger he was putting himself in—and the fact that he was doing it to keep me safe—and I nearly sobbed. He pulled me to him and kissed me before I could, though, his lips a promise on my own, his breath full of the future.
“This isn’t over,” he whispered. “Not even close. Don’t forget me. And don’t leave me hanging again.”
I put my forehead against his and stared into his gorgeous eyes. “Forget you? You’re not that lucky, Anthony Massimo.”
And then I turned and ran away from him, searching for the main street and the cab that would take me back to Rossi headquarters.
Where I was going to start building a bridge toward peace with the Massimos. Because I wanted Anthony, and I wasn’t going to let a stupid little war between my family and his stop me from taking him back.
I always got what I wanted.
Anthony Massimo was just the next thing on the list.
ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Quinn Marlowe is a fan of red wine, cheesecake, perfect hash browns, and really good punk rock. She’s also obsessed with everything piratical—though she refuses to admit any actual connection to pirates. She studied English and Film at UCLA and, when forced to choose a career, chose publishing rather than teaching or being a film maker. Quinn lives in San Diego with her husband, dogs, and far too many cats.
Mafia Rogues and Southern Heroes are Quinn’s first series, though she hopes it will be followed by many more.
