This follows Connor Barrett a wealthy, powerful businessman women fawn over. Fifteen years ago the mafia took my family and whoever is responsible will pay. That's until long-haired beautiful brunette tipped a drink on my expensive tux. I can’t get her out of my head but she may be the key to the answers I need. 

This was a fantastic read. I loved Connor and Mia together. How they met was like an accidental meet cute. This man is possessive and protective with a dominant side who needs control. I enjoyed how you think he would initiate the fake marriage but I was pleased when it turned out she did and he went along with it. The spice was brilliant and the way he gave into feeling and falling in love was beautiful. I did feel the ending was quick to pop the question but I do love the story and characters! I highly recommend this mafia read!
