I am a broken man with secrets...
As second in command for the most feared don in Italy, I can't afford any distractions. But then I come back from my time as a mercenary, and there she is, my flower, with her long, soft hair and even softer curves.
Camil is no longer the awkward little girl I grew up protecting. Now, she's a force to be reckoned with, a fierce woman who sets my blood on fire. She is like a drug, and I'm addicted. My devotion to her is unwavering, but when she yearns for those three simple words... I lie.
I tell her I could never see her as anything but the girl I'm meant to protect. But every time she looks at me with those big gray eyes, I feel my resolve crumbling. And when old demons threaten to re-emerge, I'm faced with my worst nightmare--a nightmare that could destroy us both.
I will do whatever it takes to protect her, even if it means facing my fears and admitting the truth. Because when it comes down to it, there's nothing I wouldn't do for my flower.
The Roma's Lie is a captivating tale of forbidden love and the lengths one man will go to protect his flower.
