What we had was far too beautiful to be forgotten.
The Deal
My name is Alexander Gaffarelli. I was born into one of the most influential crime families in the country. With an infinite stream of money at my disposal, I have women falling at my feet. I don’t do commitment, why would I?
That is until her.
One night of the hottest sex, and I’m hooked. When she walked out of my club without so much as a backward glance, it only made me crave her more. Now she consumes my every thought. Rest assured I will find her, and when I do, I’ll make her mine.

My name is Chloe Carmichael. I was born into money. When my mum left and my dad turned to gambling, we lost it all. Now I work three jobs, just to keep a roof over our heads and food on the table. I don’t have time for relationships, or even a life. When things finally hit rock bottom, dad promises me he’ll clean up his act.
I thought he had.
Until I returned home from work to find him on his knees in the living room with a gun pointed at his head. The moment my gaze landed on the gorgeous man standing before him, my heart skipped a beat. It was him. After the one night we spent together, I haven’t been able to get him out of my head.
As if things weren’t bad enough, to my horror my father agreed to exchange me for his own life.
I was literally screwed, in more ways than one.
I’d been traded.
I was . . . the deal.
