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 97

"Women." Roman huffed. "I'll never understand you, women. You want a man to be honorable and give you respect, and when you get it, you get pissed off because we aren't trying to jump your bones. I'm trying to be a good man right now, and you're acting like a spoiled brat because you didn't get your pussy licked. So much for being a decent guy. If I knew a quick fuck is what you wanted I could have skipped the romantic shit and gone straight to bed." 

Roman's heart was in the right place, but his mouth sure wasn't. One of his worst traits, he was clueless about women and what they really wanted. Often his smart mouth would get him in trouble and here he was, hurting the feelings of the one woman he never wanted to hurt. It seemed since he met her, he kept getting it wrong.

Angry as a rabid dog, Poppy's temper was flaring. She wanted to knock him out right then and there.

"Argh! You're insufferable!"
