Sinners Condemned by Somme Sketcher

*PART ONE OF A DUET* \n\nNo good ever comes from a red-head in a stolen dress with her worldly possessions at her feet. \n\nI should have known she was trouble when smoke and sin followed her into my bar and she challenged me to a game. \n\nShe may have won my watch, but she started a war. \n\nAs she slipped my Breitling off my wrist and onto her own, she gleefully announced she was the luckiest girl in the world. \n\nYeah, lucky to everyone but me. \n\nBecause the moment her muddy boots stomped down the stairs and up my spine, my empire started to crumble. \n\nMy cashmere charm is wrinkling. \n\nMy gentlemanly facade is cracking. \n\nMy enemies are closing in. \n\nMaybe the gypsy was right: \n\nThe Queen of Hearts will drag me down to hell. \n\nAt least it?s wonderfully warm among the flames. \n\nDARK MAFIA ROMANCE ? ENEMIES TO LOVERS ? AGE GAP ? SLOW BURN \n\n*** \n\nSOMME?S NOTES: \n\nSinners Condemned is part one of a duet, and because of this, it ends on a cliffhanger. Rafe & Penny?s story continues in Sinners Consumed, which will be out September 7. \n\nFor a better reading experience, please read Sinners Anonymous before reading Sinners Condemned. \n\nYou should know that I write dark romance, and my stories?including this one?aren?t for the faint of heart. They contain several triggers, so aren?t suitable for everyone.
