Loving A Gangster ~ Seduced By Danger, Bound By Passion

Mary Johnson ~ The Paid Bride

I stretched lazily on the bed, much like a contented kitten, before opening my eyes. Hovering above me was a face that could have been sculpted by the gods-a handsome, well-defined face with sun-kissed golden eyes. My first groggy thought was that Clara had finally brought home a decent, well-groomed man for a change. But.... Why is he in my room? I abruptly shoved him away, ending the spell. "Get off your asshole!" With a scowl on my face, I got up quickly. "Was personal space not mentioned by Clara, huh?" I spoke in an irritat-ed tone. "Clara?" He echoed. He turned and casually picked up some papers from a nearby table, settling down with an annoyingly confident smile. "And who might that be, if I may ask?" He doesn't even remember her? What an absolute asshole. "Well, if you must know, Clara is the-" I started, but my words faltered as something shiny caught my eye. Where am I? Then my memories began to flood back. -it's a damn golden sofa. The Blacks? Shit. Brain Freeze. ~~~ Growing up as the oldest kid on a Chicago farm was no picnic for Mary Johnson. Her folks, good ol' Mr. and Mrs. Becky Johnson, were salt-of-the-earth types, who worked hard on their small farm not far from the gritty back streets of Chicago. They taught Mary and her siblings the value of hard work, and self-value. But as much as Mary loved her family, she dreamed big, but those dreams took a backseat when she needed to step up and help support her family. Then, out of the blue, fate threw her a curveball. A chance in the US came knocking, and Mary didn't hesitate. And when she thought things couldn't get any crazier, she crossed paths with the Blacks – New York's high society, dripping with wealth and power, who offered a deal she couldn't resist. It seemed like a no-brainer, right? Take the offer, secure her family's future, and live happily ever after. But life's never that simple, especially when you've got a sick father, a mother who's barely holding it together, and siblings who need more than just a few bucks to make it through. So, what's a girl to do? Turn her back on the deal and destroy her family's only chance of survival? Or stick around and turn this opportunity into a life-saving grace? As Mary grapples with the biggest decision of her life, she uncovers secrets, lies, and twists within the Black's family that turn her world upside down. Suddenly, the path to happiness is-n't so clear-cut, and she left wondering if she'll ever find her way.
