Daddy's Dark Rules

The darkness that surrounds her is intoxicating. The pain in her eyes is addicting. She’s most likely too good for me and most definitely too fragile. A good man would probably walk away. A good man wouldn’t lock her into his bedroom so that he will be the only one to touch her. A good man wouldn’t make her submit to his depraved desires. But I am not a good man. This dark daddy romance is over-the-top and deliciously dirty. Possessive alpha meets mouthy brat who just wants to be left alone. Spoiler: He most definitely won’t leave her alone. Safe, no cheating, and a ludicrously sweet HEA.

I’m supposed to keep my head down and play nice, but that’s before I lay eyes on her. Jillian Lafayette. Tempting, beautiful, and very off-limits. But five years does something to a man. It makes him hungry. It makes him crazy, driven, obsessed. And when I catch her being a bad girl with her hands where they don’t belong?

And her abusive sh*t of an ex-husband has mob ties I can’t pretend aren’t there. But one look and I’m addicted. One taste, and I know she’s mine. Mine to protect. Mine to keep safe. …Mine to keep, all for myself. Five years is a long time.
