Beyond Buttons Series

Buttons and Despise

My father wouldn’t approve of most of the men I’ve dated—but definitely not him.

His name is Bones—and he’s an enemy to my family. I thought I was in the wrong place at the wrong time, but he planned this moment long ago. He’s taken me captive—and he wants the life that was stolen from him. Killing and torturing me is his best way to accomplish that.

But the intensity between us is overpowering. The chemistry is unlike anything I’ve ever felt. I shot him in the shoulder—and he kissed me hard on the mouth. Our story was supposed to be about murder, but now it’s a tale of star-crossed lovers with a forbidden romance. Bones is the son of my mother’s tormentor and I should want him dead—but I don’t.

He says he’ll spare my family as long as I belong to him, but I didn’t realize how much that agreement would cost me until now. I should slit his throat in the middle of the night or take one of my father’s guns and shoot him, but I can’t do either of those things. Not when I’m falling deeper and deeper for the man I should hate.

I need to walk away before it’s too late—before I fall in love with him.

Buttons and Despise is the fifth installment of the Beyond Buttons Series, a bestselling alpha male, dark mafia romance.
