Forbidden is what we are...
I was 10. You were 19.
You wanted to be a chef. My mom made you a star.
I'm 24. You're 33.
You hold the record for the Sexiest Man Alive.
I'm still the lost, rejected, damaged girl who can't find herself anywhere but in your protective arms.
I loved you when I was 10. I love you now.
You call me your best friend, and you still see me as a kid.
I'm 25 with a man on one knee in front of me.
You're watching through the glass. One word from you is all I need.
But you hold a secret that can destroy us both.
I've known you my whole life. Loved you my whole life.
Never thought when I die, it will be because of you.
This is NOT a Mafia novel. The Italian Heartthrob is a forbidden friends to lovers standalone. The dark themes may set you in tears.
Get it now because you have to.
