Havana Heat


Book Description

They say Teresa Moreno was a wild child, since the rich get to do as they please, but some things were forbidden to Teresa, like the right to love. She was young, rich, and the most beautiful Latina girl Carmine Castanos had ever seen, but he was merely her bodyguard. What right had he to fall in love with her? From the moment they met, eyes ablaze with heat and mystery, they were destined to be together, at all costs. For him, he had never had a woman love him as deeply as Teresa did, and for her, he was the first guy to actually be able to make her quiver just by hearing her name roll off his delectable lips. The fire that was ignited between them could not be easily extinguished, as her powerful father, Antonio Moreno, tried to do. He had his own plans for his baby girl and they did not include the hired help. After a lifetime of being daddy's little girl, Teresa makes the decision to run away, leaving the mobster life she had been groomed to lead and start a new life with the man she loved. As long as she had Carmine by her side, her escape from Hell would be well worth the emotional burns that would mark her skin for a lifetime.
