Red Roses

Giordano Rodino owes a favor... When Dante Lombardo calls in his favor, Giordano is more than ready to deliver. There is only one problem. Dante wants him to marry his daughter. The other little problem, it was a daughter he had with a mistress. This was unheard of, but Giordano does not like owing favors, and so, marrying Dante’s daughter is exactly what he will do. Contessa Lombardo knows what her father is. She knows what he is capable of. After years of disappointment, her mother told her the truth. Dante Lombardo is part of the mafia, he is a capo. She wants no part of his world. When Giordano enters the bar where she works, she knows it is going to end badly. Contessa rejects him as she doesn’t want to be part of her father’s world. Giordano will not take no for an answer. Giordano will not fail. Contessa will be his wife and he’s not above blackmail. He uses her friends against her, so Contessa has no choice but to go with him. She will become his wife. Contessa doesn’t hate Giordano. What she doesn’t know, is that Giordano has fallen in love with his little virgin wife, and he wants to keep her, build a family, and to mend her broken heart. Could it be possible for Contessa to find everything she has been looking for? They love each other and three healthy children are born who continued their life’s struggle and beyond.
