This Thing of Ours: A Mafia Romance
Gladys Cross
Rachael LaDeuc, a small-town girl from the reservation, escapes her past in New York City. A chance meeting with Vonni Moran makes her rethink all of her old insecurities. He radiates power and authority, and like a moth to flame, she can’t resist their physical attraction.
Vonni has a secret, though that threatens to ruin the fragile they have, he’s a third generation mafioso. When Rachael finds out, she tries to run away, but he selfishly won’t let her go without a fight. Vonni always gets what he wants, and he wants Rachael. Her naïveté balances out his world of violence and death.
Their tentative compromise leaves Rachael in the dark, and Vonni scrambling to keep Rachael’s innocence at every turn. What Vonni doesn’t understand is that with everything on the line, Rachael will stop at nothing to keep him safe.
