Sexy Beast by Rachel Jonas & Nikki Thorne (Paperback)

Ricky Ruiz. Ruthless kingpin, reclusive heir, and the one man our heroine, Lexi, simply can’t seem to outrun. Sexy Beast is a full-length, standalone enemies-to-lovers secret baby mafia romance in Rachel Jonas and Nikki Thorne’s Kings of Cypress Pointe series.

The rumours start buzzing the moment a photo of her buying a pregnancy test goes viral. Ordinarily this wouldn’t be such a catastrophe, except that roughly a month ago, she was also spotted with the new top dog of Cypress Pointe’s most notorious crime family. The very same family her father dedicated his entire law enforcement career to bringing to their knees.

Ricky inherited the money, the houses and the cars, but he also inherited the danger, sleeping with one eye open and one finger on the trigger. So when her name starts appearing alongside his online, the beast awakens, convinced there’s now a target on her back too. Patience and subtlety aren’t exactly his strong suits, as she discovers the night she comes home to find him waiting in a dark corner of her apartment, in no mood to debate. He’s on a mission to collect what he believes is his. Her. And she has absolutely no intention of becoming his caged bird.

Please note this is an 18+ read containing explicit violence and situations relating to pregnancy trauma; reader discretion is advised. Perfect for readers who love a dark mafia romance, an alpha crime-boss hero and a fierce heroine who refuses to be claimed.
