Compromises: A M/M Mafia Romance
When the mafia takes over, some compromises are worth making.
Ethan Walsh has spent three years building a spotless reputation as a senior administrator at a mid-sized logistics company. He takes pride in running everything by the book—honest work, clean records, no shortcuts. Then his embezzling CEO gets caught, and everything changes overnight.
The new owner is Luca brilliant, dangerous, and absolutely magnetic. Luca offers Ethan a promotion to COO and a promise that the company will stay completely legitimate. It's the opportunity of a lifetime. There's just one problem—Luca's family business has nothing to do with logistics, and everything to do with organized crime.
Ethan knows getting involved with Luca is reckless. But the attraction is undeniable, and Luca offers him something he's never a partnership built on trust, boundaries, and absolute honesty about what they can't discuss.
Their arrangement is the company stays clean, and Ethan doesn't ask questions about the rest. It works perfectly—until Luca's enemies decide the best way to hurt him is through the one person he can't afford to lose.
Now Ethan must walk away to stay safe, or stand by the dangerous man he's fallen for, knowing that love in Luca's world comes with a price.
A steamy, high-stakes m/m romance about the lines we draw, the boundaries we keep, and the compromises we make for love.

A kind of half mafia/half mm romance with drama thrown in for good measure. An enjoyable tale for me as the level of mafia stuff wasn't too over-loaded.

I enjoyed it but it was somewhat repetitive. A good editor would solve this issue.

I loved this book! Short but sweet! I've never read anything from this artist, but I am now.
