Book Description
This is book 1 of the Caliperi Family Mafia romance series! Books 2 and 3 are available everywhere now! My hands are bound, but my mouth is wide open. And that’s just the way he likes it. But behind the mafioso’s façade of cruelty is a glimmer of a heart. If I can break down his walls, maybe we’ll find a way out of this hellhole. Because if his employer finds out that Lucas put a baby in my womb… They’ll never let us out of here alive. TRINA There’s no such thing as true protection in this world. I learned that the hard way when I ended up a mob brothel. I thought it would be a safe refuge from the war zone of the city streets. But this place turned out to be a gated hell worse than anything I could have imagined. The madam, Dana Caliperi, is as vicious as they come. A don’s daughter, she has known nothing but power and cruelty since the day she was born. And she makes sure the girls under her watch never forget one thing: Whatever she says, goes. So when she tells me my new job is to submit to Lucas however he pleases, I don’t to argue. I only get to obey. From the moment that bedroom door shuts, I belong to him. And that’s just where my nightmare begins. LUCAS She was meant to be a new toy to keep me happy. But it didn’t take long for her to turn into so much more. Trina is a delicate flower. Too pure for this city… but after I’m through with her, she’ll be too dirty to ever go back to the life she had before. But what started as a pleasure of the flesh is slowly becoming something I never expected: A temptation to get the hell out of this life. There’s so much violence in the mob game, so much needless cruelty. The devil only knows that I’ve done far more than my fair share in my time as a lieutenant in the Caliperi mafia army. But after a time, it starts to weigh on your soul – or what’s left of it. Maybe, just maybe, this girl will be the one to save me. If I can manage to get us both out of here alive, there may be hope for redemption and a future. But if I fail, the mob will make us suffer greatly for our betrayal. There’s only one thing to do: Take my woman by the hand. Run. And pray that we’re faster than the demons on our trail. *** A working girl meets a bad boy mafia monster in this dark mafia romance from bestselling mob romance author Zoey Parker. It’s a dark romance with more sex and love than you can imagine, but you will love every second you spend following the romance love story of this mafioso with a heart of gold and the innocent girl who falls into his arms. This book has suspense, action, adventure, mafia romance, marriage and weddings, and a happily ever after that will melt your heart. Enjoy!

Book Description
Both Hands Tied studies the working poor in the United States, focusing in particular on the relation between welfare and low-wage earnings among working mothers. Grounded in the experience of thirty-three women living in Milwaukee and Racine, Wisconsin, it tells the story of their struggle to balance child care and wage-earning in poorly paying and often state-funded jobs with inflexible schedules—and the moments when these jobs failed them and they turned to the state for additional aid. Jane L. Collins and Victoria Mayer here examine the situations of these women in light of the 1996 national Personal Responsibility and Work Opportunity Reconciliation Act and other like-minded reforms—laws that ended the entitlement to welfare for those in need and provided an incentive for them to return to work. Arguing that this reform came at a time of gendered change in the labor force and profound shifts in the responsibilities of family, firms, and the state, Both Hands Tied provides a stark but poignant portrait of how welfare reform afflicted poor, single-parent families, ultimately eroding the participants’ economic rights and affecting their ability to care for themselves and their children.

Book Description
The first installment in a sexy new paranormal romance series by Larissa Ione, author of the bestselling Demonica series! Nicole Martin was only eight years old when she narrowly survived a massacre: her family’s vampire slaves rebelled and killed everyone in her household. Twenty years later, Nicole now dedicates herself to finding a vaccine against vampirism…and eradicating the gruesome memories that give her nightmares. Riker, a member of the wild vampire Moon Clan, is haunted by his own demons—his wife Lorraine had been captured and enslaved by the Martin family. It was during a botched escape attempt that she was killed, along with their unborn child. Still wracked with grief and anger, Riker is now fueled solely by the desire to rescue vampire slaves…and slaughter their owners. When Riker stumbles upon Nicole in a chance meeting, he immediately recognizes her as a member of the Martin family that once enslaved his wife—and she recognizes him as the wild vampire she saw kissing a pregnant slave in the moments before her violent death—an image that has haunted her dreams for years. When Riker kidnaps Nicole and they spend a night together in a cave on the way back to his clan, suddenly they begin to realize that they aren’t as different from one another as they may have thought—and they’re finding themselves drawn to one another…
