My Grumpy Cop. The Rossi Brothers, #1

She's the only witness to a brutal crime. He's her best chance at survival-if he can stop her from escaping first... The last thing Roxane expected while borrowing milk was to find a dead body in her landlady's kitchen. Worse, Bruno Santoni, the most feared mobster on the French Riviera, is standing over it-still holding the gun. Livio Rossi has spent years building a case against Santoni. Now, he finally has a witness who can bring the gangster down.
But Roxane is slippery, unpredictable, and her knack for dodging the law-even when it's on her side-makes her as infuriating as she is unexpectedly charming. Livio's plan is to keep Roxane in protective custody and out of Santoni's reach until he's behind bars. But nothing's ever simple with his stubborn, candy-obsessed con artist. As they clash, the dangerous chemistry between them starts to ignite.
With Santoni's deadly henchmen closing in, Roxane will have to decide: does she trust Livio enough to put her life in his hands? And maybe even her heart?New translation : February 2025
