Sometimes
love isn’t beautiful...
Sometimes
the only way to describe it is beautifully brutal.
If you
think you know him… You’re wrong.
If you
think you know his family… Wrong again.
If you
think you know his story… You don’t.
If you
did, you’d likely wonder how the hell a man like Maximillian Adorite managed to
make it to this point in his life. At twenty-nine, he’s experienced more than
most people could only ever imagine, all thanksto his family. Organized crime
they call it. Mafia.
No matter
how they spin it, it comes down to one thing. Max gets what he wants. Except
for the one thing he wants most.
Her name
is Courtney Kogan.
And now
that he’s had a taste of her, Max knows he’ll never be able to let her go.
The
Southern Boy Mafia series is a spinoff from the Sniper 1 Security series. It
has been set up to be read without reading Sniper 1 Security, however, the
characters will frequently cross over.
Excerpt
Twenty
two months ago.
Courtney
tried to pull away from Max, her heart pounding against her chest. Max was
going to kill Weston, He was going to kill him and it was all her fault.
At that point, she’d been with Max for several
months, getting deeper and deeper into a relationship with him, but never had
actually gotten any information to take back to her father. Nothing that would
take Max down, nothing concrete enough to do any damage to the Southern Boy
Mafia and she felt as though she was running out of time.
So,
she befriended Weston, pretended to like him until she convinced him that she
wanted him. And then, she’d gotten his phone number, called him and invited him
to meet with her.
He
had
But
the young man hadn’t given up any information that would have hurt Max.
“What’d
she offer you?” Max asked Weston.
Weston’s
head shifted, his right eye opened ever so slightly, his gaze meeting hers. She
could hardly make out the color of his iris because the lid was so swollen,
purple from the bruises that marred his once handsome face.
“Did
she offer her pussy?” Max asked, his tone lethal. “Is that what she offered
you?”
“God,
no!” Courtney screamed.
She
hadn’t offered him anything. She’d merely tried to talk to him. Sure, the
flirting might’ve eluded to more, but she’d never intended to do anything with
him. She wasn’t a whore.
“He
didn’t…” she uttered, her throat closing around her words. “H didn’t betray
you.”
“No? He
met with you in with you in the park, sat with you for two fucking ours and
talked. What’d you talk about? The goddamn weather? If he didn’t betray me,
what did he do, Courtney? Confess his undying love? Ask you to run away with
him? What?”
“I
betrayed you.” Weston said through swollen lips. “I shouldn’t have talked to
her.”
“He
didn’t!” Courtney yelled. “He didn’t tell me anything.”
“But you
tried, didn’t you?” Max yelled at her directly. “You tried to get him to talk”
Courtney’s
gaze dropped to the floor as she nodded. She’d tried, but Weston had revealed
very little. Not even enough to take back to her father.
“Anything
you have to say to me, Weston?” Max asked.
Lifting
her gaze to the broken man and battered man in front of her, she wanted to
plead for Max to let him go, but she knew better. He was going to die. This was
what happened in Max’s world. This soulless man was the leader of the Southern
Boy Mafia, the ruler of the dark and dirty underworld that she found herself
living in.
He
was the man she’d fallen for. And she hated that, hated that she’d betrayed
herself. Even now, even knowing what was going to happen, she couldn’t deny her
feelings for Max. He was doing what had to be done. He weeded out the weak
links in his organization in order to move forward. It made sense even if she
hated it.
Max Adorite is the second in command of Southern Boy Mafia, answerable only to his father. He is just about the badest bad boy you can think of. He will kill without hesitation anyone who harms his family, or the one woman that he should stay away from, but can't.
Courtney Kogan is the only daughter of Casper Kogan the head of Sniper 1 Security. A high class company that sometimes work for the government. Courtney is also one of the company's best operatives. When her father sends her to investigate Max, He doesn't realise how much that will impact on the lives of all those involved.
Courtney and Max are complete opposites in all they believe in, but just can't stop the fireworks whenever they meet.
A very sexy but violent story. Not for feint hearted readers. It's very hard to work out how they can get past all the obstacles between them. What is most important family or your heart?
