When She Tempts

<p><strong>She's eighteen. Innocent. <em>Forbidden.</em></strong></p><p>Martina De Rossi is off-limits and not just because her brother is about to become the Don.</p><p>When I agree to protect her while he's out waging a brutal war it isn't only out of loyalty.</p><p>It's because Martina is the perfect pawn in my game of revenge.</p><p><strong>Unfortunately she's also temptation personified.</strong></p><p>Innocent eyes. A body to die for. Silky blond hair that begs to be wrapped around my fist.</p><p>I'm a master of staying in control but with each day she spends with me inside the walls of my <strong>remote Italian castle</strong> I can feel my resolve cracking.</p><p>My gaze starts to drift.</p><p>My touch starts to linger.</p><p>And <strong>when she tempts </strong>I realize this game we're playing might be one I won't win.</p>
