Couture Criminals

Cheeky owner of a struggling fashion boutique, Poppy Fields dreams of having her designs rocking the couture runways in Paris and Milan. While fantasizing about the glamorous life, her world is about to collide with the devil himself in the form of a dangerous mafia leader, Roman D’Amico, out for revenge for his dead brother. Often mistaken as the future wife of one of Chicago’s most notorious crime bosses, and Roman’s rival gang member, everyone who enters Poppy’s little shop believes they are doing a favor to the Gambino family. When her doppelgänger waltzes into her boutique, the women are shocked to find they look like twins. Leaving her identification behind as a ruse to flee the country, Claudia switches lives with the unsuspecting fashion designer. When Luke Gambino falls for the ploy, he believes Poppy is his runaway bride, forcing her to take on the persona of the real Claudia Ricci. Following the murder of his brother, Roman D’Amico is looking for revenge. When he suspects the Gambinos are behind it, he plots to kidnap the rival gang member’s wife. Unknowing that the women have switched places, Roman kidnaps the wrong couture diva. With Claudia missing, Poppy must keep up the ruse, and convince Roman to keep her alive or fall into the hands of the murderous Gambino family.

Chapter 128

Roman smiled devilishly as he gave Poppy the once over. He really was so turned on by her style that it drove him crazy. Regardless, it was the girl, not the clothing, that he fell in love with so easily. 

"Well. I'll have to keep that naughty little fetish in mind when I go shopping next time. You do owe me some new outfits for them getting trashed in that airport. I spent a fortune on those things."

"No. Remi and Chanel owe you a shopping trip. They're the ones who threw away your stuff. But I guess I could sacrifice a day to take you myself. So long as we get to go by an antique store and maybe a vintage clothing shop. I think I may need some props for that retro room I'm building."

"Why does this sound more like a kink room than a hobby interest?"

"Kink room." He thought, rubbing his chin. "I like that. Vintage iron bed with handcuffs. A few little costumes. I say… bring on the kink!"
