Gretchen (not my real name)

I completed my mission. The McDonagh brothers now know they’ve been working for the man who killed their sister. My job is done.
Then Callum McDonagh—hot as sin, powerful, and infinitely unruly, a God among men—asks for my help to save innocent women who’ve fallen prey to the man who destroyed my life.
The catch… this time I won’t be behind a sniper rifle, I’ll be Callum’s
property and ticket into the dangerous world of human trafficking.
I should say
no.
I should get free of all this darkness.
But the fire in Callum’s eyes for vengeance, for justice, and for
me lures me back in—fine, one last job and then I’ll walk away from the McDonaghs and leave this fight to them. That is, if I can walk away from Callum after I’ve felt his touch… no, I’ll walk away but I might as well enjoy every second until then. Who says a girl can’t multitask?

Callum

I found the only woman capable of walking with me into the clutches of the most brutal mafia family alive. Gretchen can more than hold her own.
But that’s not what I’m thinking the first time I touch her and feel her profound surrender to me, to my mission, to seeing this journey through, to saving women who have no one to fight for them.
In that first touch, everything changes.
I want Gretchen.
Not just for this mission.
I want forever with her.
I promised to let her go when we’re done. I promised to keep her safe.
But now the mafia prince I aim to kill wants Gretchen more than anything and he’s willing to kill me to make her his own.
How can I think about forever when we might not survive the day?

Author Note: Sweet Vendetta is a steamy mafia-lite romance that contains violence and dark subject matter, including references to prior trauma. All steaminess between the main characters is consensual. NOTE: This book involves an undercover situation that, while consensual for the lead characters, includes some references to ongoing abuse, which may be upsetting for some readers. Please read at your own discretion.
This is the second book in the interconnecting, standalone Vows & Vendettas series. Each book contains a happily ever after for the couple, while the overall conflict continues throughout the series. Books should be read in order.
