Sasha Smith is the owner of an exclusive dance club catering to the rich and arrogant. When one of her favorite customers and close friends is missing from his regular spot at the bar, she goes in search of him. Finding him very ill, lonely and at risk, she agrees to move in with him temporarily until he's feeling better. When Rin Allegretti, Italian mafia Don, finds out his grandfather has an exotic dancer living in his house, he rallies his family to the family home to thwart whatever the gold-digging girl's plans might be for his grandfather. Rin finds himself drawn to the younger woman and wanting to protect her from the harshness of the family he himself dropped on her. Sasha finds herself in the midst of family drama, under scrutiny of an attractive older man and falling in over her head. She herself comes from a similar family and she knows the dangers of tangling with a boss, especially one of a rival family. She knows once he realizes who her family are, there will be hell to pay. Rin wants only to protect the little dancer and to keep her safe, even if it means, opening his heart up for the very first time. Can he convince her he’s not the monster mobster she believes him to be?

Where Is Sonny?

Sasha pulled up to the mansion on the outskirts of Vegas and offered a prayer to her grandmother in heaven to protect her from getting shot, or worse, from finding a dead body. She wanted to get into the house somehow and check on her long-time friend and best customer. She was surprised of the state of the house. The front gate unmanned, the gardens and yards in desperate need of attention. She admitted she shouldn’t have been startled. Sonny had not been himself for the last year and a half since he’d given his grandson and his siblings control of the family early. They’d taken it and then left him to rot. She knew who Sonny Allegretti was, or at least who he used to be. One of the most ruthless leaders of the Italian mob Vegas had ever known. Now he was a sad old man who came to her club and drank whisky at the end of her bar every night. Except the last two nights. He hadn’t shown up. It was unheard of. She lifted her eyes in another silent prayer begging she didn’t walk in on a

To The Hospital

Sasha felt guilt for not realizing how poorly her friend had become. For the first thirteen years of her life, he had been the only grandfather she’d known, even though they weren’t blood. She could feel both her grandmother and Ruthie scowling down at her from where they probably ruled heaven with an iron fist. Ruthie had been her grandmother Gina’s closest friend growing up and their friendship had lasted nearly seventy years. They had been together through thick and thin, although Ruthie kept Gina sheltered from a lot of her life with Sonny. When Gina’s sixteen-year-old daughter Avery had gotten pregnant by a boy she’d met in the strip club where she’d been working illegally, Ruthie and Gina had stepped in, with Sonny taking up the rear. Avery had confessed he’d been an older boy, a tourist, and she’d lied about her age. He’d been there on a vacation with his family and every night for two weeks Gina had snuck off with him. Then he’d gone back to wherever he was from, and Avery ha

Weddings Are Boring

Rin sat in the ballroom of the hotel with his closest friend Marcello and couldn’t be bothered to feign laughter at the airheaded chatter of his date when she tried to tell a joke to the table. His invitation to the wedding of his cousin on his mother’s side of the family had made him realize how much bullshit his grandfather and his grandmother had had to put up with when they’d been in charge of the family. Eighteen months. It had been eighteen months since his grandfather announced his retirement and walked away from anything having to do with running the business. He had been the old man’s right-hand man for twenty-two years before that. He could still hear the slippery old bastard when he’d walked into his fortieth birthday dinner, looked him right in the face and told him for his birthday he was giving him his seat at the family table. Then the old man had looked his son, Rin’s father, in the face and said he wasn’t smart enough to run a 7-11 let alone a billion-dollar empire so

Chaos

He tried to focus on speeches going on and on at the front of the ballroom, but he was eyeing his phone with far more attention than the rest of the world. He gripped his phone tightly when the accountant messaged him back with a copy of his grandfather’s last credit card statement, which according to the man had been paid off in full. He knew the old man had kept a few secret accounts and didn’t blame him. He had several of his own.He noted almost a daily charge for roughly thirty dollars at a place called Gina’s and wondered if his grandfather was frequenting a coffee shop in his neighborhood. It was the other item near the bottom of the bill which caught his attention. Mercy General Hospital. Eighteen thousand dollars.He pushed his chair back and walked out of the room ignoring the curious glances in his direction as he dialed out his grandfather’s number. He didn’t stop walking until he found himself in the hotel lobby and even then, walked to a far corner of the room and hung u

Meet The Family

“Sonny, are you home?” Sasha called out as she entered the house, surprised to see the three cars in the yard. He never had guests according to him and he hadn’t mentioned anything today when she’d checked on him before she left to run to the grocery store.She stood listening and noted the closed door to his office and made a face and made her way to the kitchen with the groceries she’d picked up. She considered knocking on the door but considering the types of cars in the yard, black SUVs she considered it might be family related and she did not need to know. If it was business, the last thing she needed was to let herself be known as an acquaintance to Sonny.She would simply go to the kitchen and make lunch and with luck, whoever was here, would leave soon and she would be well hidden in the back of the house. Hopefully, it wasn’t anyone dangerous. Though, it was entirely possible given she knew Sonny kept a loaded weapon in his desk.She would make him pasta the way Ruthie had ta

Lunch Is Served

He walked away without saying another word, but she noted he took the bowl of pasta with him. She carried the bread, butter and salad and followed and noted the dining room was eerily quiet and Sonny was smirking as he took his seat. It was clear he had heard the way she had spoken to his grandson, and he was there for it. She almost giggled when he purposefully took the seat next to the head of the table and forced Rin to sit at the head of the table. Sonny pulled a chair out and patted the empty seat immediately beside him, “come Sasha, I will protect you.” “Ah but I’m not afraid of them, my friend,” she kissed his cheek warmly, “but I do appreciate the company of the most handsome man at the table.” “Sasha, how is it you came to know my grandfather was ill, yet his own family was not made aware?” Rin asked curiously as he ladled the pasta to his plate and then passed it to Sonny. He twirled the pasta around his fork and shovelled it into his mouth and his eyebrows went up in surp

Biscotti and Tea

Sasha exited her room thirty minutes later and made her way to the dining room, unsurprised to find the table had been left with all the dishes and food still there. Not a single solitary one of them knew how to pick up after themselves. They likely couldn’t wipe their own ass without coaxing and applause. She fought her smirk at the empty pasta bowl though. They hadn’t been able to resist. She imagined them all sitting here begrudgingly enjoying the delicious meal she’d made. Ruthie had taught her well and she felt smug satisfaction at knowing even though they hated her, they liked her food. She looked around wondering where they had all disappeared to and then decided she would have to clean up after them, regardless of Sonny’s warning to them while he’d sat at the table. She gave a sad sigh as she noted Sonny’s dish still had most of his pasta on it. She began collecting the dishes and carrying them to the kitchen. It took nearly thirty minutes to get the

Opening Wounds

"I’m sorry, Nonno. I’m sorry, I –”“Angie what the hell did you do?” Rin grabbed her and pulled her away from the yelling man.Sonny was writhing on the bed, tea spilled all over his chest and his body straight out as if he were in agony. Sasha threw the tray off the bed uncaring it landed to the floor with a clatter and ripped the thin quilt off him. She yanked the shirt open to reveal light pink mottling on his chest, but he grunted about his leg, and she felt a terrible moment of panic. No. Not the leg.“Angie!” Rin shook her furiously. “What happened?”Sasha considered it couldn’t have been hard enough because her head was still attached, and she was still capable of speaking. She felt a terrible need to violently end the woman who had carelessly hurt Sonny. Her pathetic words only served to make her angrier.“I was trying to get comfortable on the bed and I accidentally le

Revelations

Rin helped his grandfather back to the room and noted his family all still standing around the end of the bed. Angie was hugging the tin of cookies to her chest like a lifeline. She didn’t look like she was going to give them up anytime soon. Her eyes were bloodshot, and her cheeks were red from all the crying she’d done. If he had to guess, she truly felt bad about popping their grandfather’s leg open like an oversized zit. She was frowning, crumbs on her chin and staring into space.“I don’t think they’re sugar-free, Ang,” he looked to her hips with a smirk. “You complained about the carbs at lunch and now you’re shoving biscotti in your face like they’re oxygen. You should put those down.”“You only want me to put the tin down so you can take it.” She glared at him. “You can’t fool me. You might be the oldest but I’m onto you.” She hugged the tin tighter, “do

Reparations

He looked to Sonny who was frowning and if Rin thought about, appeared a little high. He wondered what was in the pain tablet Sasha had given him because his pupils were fixated. At the thought of her he groaned. He’d just fucking bellowed the family business for the entire neighborhood to hear and she was literally right across the hall. She’d probably heard every fucking thing. He’d deal with her after. First and most importantly was the stoned man laying pale and barely moving. He took the tin of biscotti which had been left on the bed and set them on the nightstand near his grandfather and approached the older man, an ache in his chest he desperately needed to assuage. “Sonny, I’m sorry.” Apologies never came easy to him but this one fell from his lips with desperation. “I am so sorry for the disrespect this family has shown you.” He knelt on the floor beside the bed and kissed his grandfather’s knuckles of the hand he grasped. “You gave us the world and we gave you disrespect.
