Forever Mine by Jennifer J Williams

I’m the poster child for struggle. It’s been rough since I was seventeen and almost forced to marry a forty-year-old man. My grandmother bought our freedom from my mafia family, and we fled Texas to Oklahoma. The best thing to come out of that decision was meeting my best friend, Emily, and following her to Colorado fifteen years later. But the struggle never stops. As for love, well, I’ve given up on that. All I’ve experienced is heartbreak.
Just when I resolve to be that girl, the single girl with no steadiness in her life, I meet Gabriel Campos. He’s my new boss, and he makes me feel. It’s complicated, though, and I think my life would be easier if I forced a relationship with my ‘friends with benefits’ situation with Marcus. But suddenly, I’m targeted by an unknown assailant. Gabriel comes to my aid time and time again. Is he the exception, not the rule?
Can I have my forever with my decade-older boss, who loves nothing more than to whisper sweet nothings in Portuguese against my skin, or will my mafia past be too much for us to achieve our happily ever after?
