I watch her.
I follow her.
And when the time is right, I’ll make her mine.

I’m not a fool. I know the innocent scholarship student, Daisy, who can barely afford her crumbling apartment is too good for me. But from the moment I saw her, I knew she was mine. Now all I have to do is convince her of that.

But when my brother returns from being MIA with suddenly psychotic tendencies (and that means a lot coming from me) and some worldwide organization comes in and threatens everything I care about if I don’t hand over the city I spent my life gaining control of, things get more bloody and, to put it delicately, tourturey.

And if Daisy thought I was a stalker before, wait when she sees how I get when I’m her full on protector.

This is the standalone contemporary romantic suspense with a HEA and no cliffhanger that features sexy alpha males and smart, strong women who will stand up for what they believe in.

REVIEW:STALKED BY THE MOB is the first instlament in Mallory Crowe’s contemporay, adult MIAMI MAFIA dark,erotic, Mafia romance series. This is mob boss Alek Rishka, and twenty-two year old, University of Miami student Daisy Stone’s story line.

WARNING: Due to the nature of the story line premise, there may be triggers for more sensitive readers.

Told from dual first person perspectives (Alek and Daisy) STALKED BY THE MOB follows mob boss Alek Rishka as he is determined to claim twenty-two year old college student Daisy Stone as his own. A debt owed finds Alek the new owner of a seedy apartment building, a building in which all of the units have been wired with cameras. Discovering Daisy Stone in one of the apartments, Alek begins a rapid seduction of our story line heroine, a seduction that is going to place Daisy in the direct line of fire. The Russian controlled Black Thorn organization is demanding control of Alek Rishka’s Miami territory, and with it, targeting our heroine in the process. What ensues is the building romance and relationship between Alek and Daisy, and the potential fall-out as betrayal from within threatens Alek’s tenuous hold on his heart and his plan.

Daisy Stone grew up on the wrong side of the tracks, and with her best friend Becks, escaped a life of turbulence and drugs. Working three jobs and going to school full time, Daisy is determined to succeed one way or the other. Meeting Alek Rishka meant an abrupt change of plans when our heroine finds herself targeted for her part in Alek’s life, mistaken for someone or something else. Alek Rishka finds himself enamoured and off balance by our story line heroine, something that threatened his business control but someone else is pulling the strings behind the scenes, someone close to our story line hero.

The relationship between Alek and Daisy is one of immediate attraction; an insta lust to love relationship wherein Daisy is caught like a fly in a web. Alek ‘wants’ to claim Daisy as his own, a claim that is both intimidating and strong. Daisy Stone doesn’t do relationships; doesn’t date and only has one goal in mind but when Alek Rishka begins a dogged determination to seduce our heroine, Daisy finds herself falling for a man she knows nothing about. The $ex scenes are intimate, erotic and provocative.

We are introduced to Daisy’s best friend and roommate Becks; Alek’s PA Mary, his brother Borya; Alek’s right hand man Sergei, Black Thorn head Kolya Vasiliev, and Cartel head Raphael Carrio. The requisite evil has many faces.

STALKED BY THE MOB is a novella length story of power and control, betrayal and vengeance, double cross and revelation, seduction and love. The fast paced premise is dramatic and intense; the romance is captivating and steamy; the characters are charismatic and energetic.
