SYNOPSIS
The son of a prominent Cosa Nostra Don, Corrado Guzzi’s life should have been all mapped out. He would be what every other Guzzi man was, too—made, mafia. It’s their way. But when given another choice, the chance to be something more, he takes it. Even if it comes with strings.
It’s there that he might find where he belongs, and Alessio Sorrento. The man who could change his whole life.
This love thing? It should have been easy, but they made it hard. Nothing about a relationship like theirs is simple. Dictated by rules, weighed down with things left unsaid, and already hanging by a frayed thread.
This is what love looks like before, and after.
Before she came along.
And after she was there.
It takes one woman to change everything.
Ginevra Calabrese wasn’t ready for this—for them.
So, what happens now?

NOTE: Corrado (book one) and Alessio (book two) are a duet within The Guzzi Legacy series, and should be read in order. All other titles in the series are standalone. This is NOT a love triangle.
EXCERPT
Alessio knew that
from the outside looking in, he and Corrado didn’t make sense to other people.
They didn’t have a label. Far too
many overlooked them, and assumed they weren’t a thing together. Not that they
ever gave people a reason to know the truth, either.
You know, beyond
living together.
For nearly five
years …
Still, people
didn’t know.
They could only
assume.
He partly blamed
himself, and Corrado, too. Not that he ever said that to anyone, or his lover.
A long time ago, they’d decided this was
what they were going to be. Together, but only to each other. A thing, but it
wasn’t open to public consumption.
Alessio was
willing to do that.
It gave him what
he wanted.
Corrado.
Somehow, they
found a familiar rhythm like this. He didn’t push for something else, or for
more, because what else was there to have when … in a lot of ways, he had it
all.
Or did he?
People wouldn’t
understand.
They shared everything.
A life.
Work.
A home.
Women.
Sex.
There was nothing
in their lives that wasn’t somehow touched by both of them. So much so, that
those closest to Corrado and Alessio thought the two of them were often
extensions of the other. Without one, the other wasn’t right.
Nothing was right.
“What are you
thinking about, huh?” Corrado asked, his voice thick with sleep and bliss. Probably still humming from that
orgasm, and if all went well, Alessio would be the next one. “You’re quiet over
there.”
“You like that,
anyway.”
“Sometimes.”
Alessio grinned.
Corrado smirked
right back.
Reaching over, he
drifted his fingertips down the line of Corrado’s jaw still shadowed with a few
days’ worth of scruff. “You do like it when I’m quiet. Admit it.”
It was true.
Corrado thrived on
attention.
Alessio just liked
to watch.
“And when you’re a
shit,” Corrado added.
He laughed. “Yeah,
that, too.”
“And don’t
deflect. What were you thinking?”
Alessio sighed,
his gaze going back to the large, glimmering light fixture above the bed. Only
Corrado would know something was going on in Alessio’s mind when he was quiet. No
one else saw him in his silent moments and thought, something’s happening there. They were all too willing to let him
stew, even if they didn’t know that’s what he was doing.
Not Corrado, though.
He often wondered,
how, at eighteen—although now, just a month or so shy of his twenty-third
birthday—had he found his person. He
knew some people went their whole lives without ever finding that person that
was meant to be only theirs.
He found his early.
Corrado was still
there, too.
God.
And he loved him.
Loved him fucking stupid.
Loved him enough
to still be here even when shit held Corrado back, and forced them into his
strange place where they were something, but they weren’t at the same time.
Where they shared women in bed, and had a whole life together behind closed
doors, but out in the world … they weren’t anything. Where they dictated this
thing between them with rules that had followed them from damn near the
beginning, but neither of them said three little words to cement it.
I
love you.
But that was too
deep.
Corrado didn’t do
deep.
So, Alessio lied.
REVIEW
The first was still looking for who he really was.
The second was sure of his place in the world, but now he wanted so much more.
The plot is a mix of mafia, outlaws and hot and intense romance, but, above all, a search for oneself that one finds in the other.
This new book by bestselling author Bethany-Kris will surprise you.
