I’m hard to handle, but even harder to let go of – consider yourself warned

TITLE: Chosen Against My Will GENRE: Dark Mafia Romance SETTING: contemporary New York TROPES: dark romance, possessive alpha male, hate-loving, enemies to lovers, jealous ex (open to suggestions, if anyone has any more tropes they'd like to see!) STORY: Lily Bennet desperately needs a job -- but she's not sure she wants to work for Genova's. The whispers that it's a mafia front are 100% true. She's seen and heard things that can and probably will get her killed to ensure her silence. Can she rely on the Don's son, Lino Cardone, to protect her as viciously as he loves her? Or is he merely using her for his own pleasure?

THE CHARACTERS: 

Lilly Bennet: normally a quiet girl, her temper tends to flare when someone doesn't take 'no' for an answer. Good quality for a New York girl -- bad quality when she's serving coffee to the Cardone crime family on a daily basis. How is she still alive, exactly?

Lino Cardone: the son of Mario Cardone, head of the Cardone crime family. He's a spoiled little shit who doesn't take no for an answer and takes whatever he wants, and right now, he wants to alleviate the boredom with the firecracker waitress his father just hired (and specifically told him to keep his hands off of).

STATUS CHECK: currently PLOTTING, so open to suggestions and ideas if anyone has anything they want to see in a dark mafia romance!

pov : you’re exploring a new town after class with a friend in the fall. 🍁☕️
