The King of Bourbon.
Boss of the Bacelli Crime Family.
Thatβs who Joey Bacelli was.The βfamilyβ was made up of violence, gore, and death, and itβs all Joey had ever known and he revels in it.
Joey was a man who was used to getting everything he wanted, except for the one woman that continuously denied him.
Marra.
And itβs that rejection from her, the disinterest she shows, her lack of fear in who and what he is, that turned Joey on even more. It made him obsessed, so much so heβll stop at nothing to make Marra his.
Marra Santos knew Joey was a dangerous man, and itβs because of who and what he is that kept Marra at an armβs length. But the truth was, she wanted him with a desperation that scared her more than the man himself.
When sheβs witness to a murder and her life is in danger, the only man she could turn to is Joey.Now at Joeyβs mercy and in his debt, Marra knows heβll make her repay him in the one way heβs always wanted.
To be his completely.
