Craving Chaos: A Rivals to Lovers, Stranded Together, Mafia Romance

ShaeI knew ten ways to kill a man with my bare hands by the time I was fifteen.I'm a woman. A fighter. And an apex predator. And most importantly, I'm a valuable asset in my Irish family's criminal empire.
Turns out, all of that means nothing when you're stranded in the frozen Canadian wilderness.
One tiny shack for warmth. A single bed no bigger than a camping cot.And a meager supply of canned food insufficient for one adult, let alone two.
And that's the kicker.
Not only am I stranded, I'm stuck here with Renzo Donati, boss of the Giordano Mafia family.Italian, maddeningly arrogant, and my only hope of survival.
But that's all he is to me-all he'll ever be. A means to an end.
The way his fingers massage my scalp when he washes my hair? Utterly irrelevant.His unwavering tone when he insists on checking my injuries? Inconsequential.
Being with Renzo would mean the end of everything I am. Everything I've worked so hard to become.
I cannot let him break me, no matter how desperately I want to shatter in his hands.
RenzoShae wants to refuse me. To keep me at a distance.Well, I refuse to accept her refusal.
She thinks I'm difficult? I'll show her just how hardheaded I can be. I won't give up until every one of her prickly edges melts in submission beneath me. Because I know what fate has already decided. What I feel deep in my bones and what her body has already accepted, despite her mind's objections.
Shae Byrne is mine.

*Craving Chaos is the first book in the Moretti Malice series, which is a spin-off of the Byrne Brothers. Each book in the series features a different couple and can be read as a standalone with a happily ever after, but for maximum enjoyment, follow the recommended reading order. A dark romance with adult themes, Craving Chaos may not be suitable for sensitive audiences.

A Note from the Author: Shae Byrne is such a badass character that she deserved an absolutely epic story, and thus was born Craving Chaos. Set aside your expectations, make sure your seatbelt is buckled, and prepare for the ride of your life. For those of you who are new to me, I write what I'd call "mafia lite." My heroes are hardened criminals with soft spots for their heroines. There may be violence and cruelty in my books, but never between the main characters. Enjoy!
