Alpha Mafia Daddies

Clara
The last person I expected to end up in bed with on my wedding night was another man.
He was the distraction I needed after I discovered my fiancé was cheating on me with my best friend.
He was gone before I woke up, as if he understood the assignment.
All I needed was one amazing night with someone I’d never have to see again.
Two weeks later, I took a test and discovered I was pregnant.
I knew he was the father, but I didn’t try and find him.
Fast forward eighteen months and I’m being headhunted for a managerial role at a new club.
The last person I expect to see when I when I walk into the club is him.
My one-night stand.
My daughter’s father.
I know I need to tell him about Zoe, but how can I?
I’ve heard rumors about this man, his family and their involvement in the mafia.
He’ll kill me if he finds out I’ve kept her from him.
Then one night, after work, he turns up on my doorstep.
The moment he sees Zoe in my arms, he knows.
He’s angry. Angry enough that when she goes missing later that night, I know he took her.
I’ll do whatever I need to in order to get my daughter back.

MARCO
When I first saw Clara sitting at that bar in her big puffy white dress,
I knew she was something special.

That night confirmed it for me,
But neither of us were in the right headspace for a relationship.

So, I waited until the time was right for both of us.

And I made sure our paths crossed again.

The last thing I expected was this.

I’m angry she lied to me.

Who wouldn’t be?
I have a daughter I know nothing about.

As furious as I am, I’d never kidnap Zoe.

I’ll find out who did, though.

And I’m going to make sure they pay,
no matter what the cost.

Ruthless Secrets is Book 1 of Marco and Clara's story. Their story concludes in Book 2, Ruthless Vengeance.
