Bound by Temptation (Born in Blood Mafia Chronicles, #4)

by Cora Reilly

“You only have this one life, Lily. Make the best of it. I wish I had done it and now it’s too late. I don’t want you to end like me, to look back at a life full of missed opportunities and lost dreams. Don’t let life pass you by. You are braver than me, brave enough to fight for your happiness.”

The loneliness you felt when you were surrounded by people was the worst kind.

“Lily, you are stunning. Of course I find you attractive. Look at you, you are too fucking beautiful for words.”

“I don’t know. Maybe nothing. But I want you, Lily. I can’t get you out of my head. No matter what I do there’s always you.”

“Nobody will take you away from me. I’ll fight a million wars if it means I can keep you.”

“I love you,” I whispered. Romero’s arms tightened around me and he kissed my temple. “And I love you.” Maybe things wouldn’t always be easy in the future, but I knew I’d never regret taking this risk. Love was worth every risk.
