Blurb
Arianna Capizola is her father’s daughter.
Humble. Hardworking. Honest.
She’d rather spend her days helping at the local shelter
than brushing shoulders with her vain and entitled classmates.
Niccolò Marchetti is his father’s son.
Dark. Dangerous. Deceitful.
He’d rather spend his days getting bloody in the ring than
attending class and keeping up pretences.
When their paths cross at Montague University neither of
them are willing to drop the walls they’ve spent so long building. But he can’t
resist the girl with stars in her eyes, and she can’t forget the guy who saved
her that night.
There’s only one catch.
Nicco isn’t Arianne’s knight-in-shining armor, he’s the son
of her father’s greatest enemy.
He is the enemy.
And their families are at war.
**Prince of Hearts is the first book in Nicco and Ari’s
duet. Due to mature content that some readers may find distressing, this book
is recommended for readers 18+

Excerpt
“It’s a
beautiful night,” I said from the shadows.
“Nicco?”
She glanced around, searching for me. When her eyes landed on me standing by
the corner of the building, she stood up. “What do you want?”
“Ahh,
Bambolina.” I let out a weary sigh. “That is a loaded question.”
“Humor me.”
Lina took a step closer. The moonlight danced off the soft features of her
face.
Jesus, she
was so fucking beautiful.
“I want to
kiss you.” I inched toward her, unable to resist the magnetic pull I felt
whenever I was around her. “I want to finish what we started earlier. I want to
feel you beneath me, hear you cry my name.”
I want
to make you mine.
“You
couldn’t get away from me fast enough earlier.” Her confused gaze cut me like a
thousand tiny blades over my skin.
“It’s not
what you think,” I said, moving closer still. Lina mirrored my movements until
we were standing in front of each other.
Until she
was close enough to touch.
“What’s
happening to us, Nicco?” she whispered. “Why do I feel like this?”
“What do
you feel like?” I brushed the hair off her neck. She had a thick hoodie pulled
over her body, but I was still able to stroke the skin beneath her ear. Lina’s
eyes drifted closed as she inhaled a shaky breath.
“I look for
you when you’re not there. I feel you when you’re close. I can’t get you out of
my head.” Her eyes opened again, fixing on mine. She smiled and it was like a bolt
of lightning to my heart.
This girl.
This
innocent sweet girl was ruining me.

REVIEW
Review by: Jennifer
(5 Stars)
For the last five years Arianne has lived a super sheltered life. Getting her father to agree to her living on campus in a dorm room was a miracle, but he did and she found herself looking forward to being a freshman. For all the excitement that Arianne had, she was not prepared for what happened the first night she goes out. After getting into a situation, she ends up running into Nicco, who ends up being her savior of sorts. Determined not to let the nastiness of the situation get to her, she is determined to make the best of her college experience. But she can't get Nicco out of her head. For some reason he ends up being in the same places she is, and after interfering a second time, the feelings that they are starting to have for each other can't be denied. The two have secrets that they are reluctant to share with each other, and when they finally come to light will the two be able to keep what they have started going? Or will the pull of their family loyalty prove to be stronger than love?
A modern day Romeo and Juliet but with a mafia twist. This story was full of drama, had some really nitty gritty moments (trigger warning), rounded out by some really nicely done chemistry with the main characters. I give this super entertaining book 5 stars, and I can't wait to get part two.

Author of over thirty mature young adult and new adult
