The Maid Who Made the Mafia Boss Stay

Bennett Hale can make an entire city lower its voice. But when his dying mother needs him, he sends doctors—and stays away. Then he comes home early and finds Clara Reed, a young housekeeper, crying as she gently shaves his mother’s head. His mother is laughing for the first time in months. Clara knows the woman behind the medical reports. She also carries a grievance Bennett knows nothing about: eight years ago, his family promised her mother money that never arrived. As the truth draws them closer, Bennett begins looking for Clara every time he comes home. But she needs to know whether he wants her out of guilt—or because he’s falling in love.
