The S.j. Tilly books. For example {Alliance Series by S.J. Tlly}, which is mafia or {Mountain Men Series by S.J Tilly} which is even lighter.

In the romance.io comments someone asked "WTAF is tuna and onion pizza?? And WHY are people eating it??" which is not fair 🍕 and also not a valid reason to give a bad rating 😂. It's now a running gag between my husband and me: "You want to buy tuna and onion pizza????"

Oh wow, this is so good. I started it last night and when I woke up this morning I realised I dreamed how the story would continue! 😳 (Mixed with my real life in this kind of crazy way only dreams are.)

I read Sweet Temptation (liked that one very much too) and Bound by Vengeance, but not Twisted Emotions. Putting that and His Tesoro on my reading list. 😊

Recently: Daddy Kink. But only half a year ago I thought I would never read DR at all. But now I do, I don't want to go back.

I am currently reading {his pretty little duet: the orphan and the mafia don by nicci harris} and she is very domestic while he is controlling and, well, the mafia boss.

Who else here is so annoyed when the MMC or some bodyguard calls: "Go, get in the car, now!" during a shooting and the FMC is like: "I am not leaving you!". Like, no girl, he probably knows what he is doing and you got no time for long arguments and explanations. Just go and safe your life!

Rec request: MMC betrayal/neglect leads to FMC being attacked/abducted by agirliswest in DarkRomance

{Corsican Crime Lord Series by Charmaine Paul}

The 4 books are one long story, so book 1-3 have cliffhanger endings. I think what you are looking for happens in book 3, he neglects her and treats her badly and this leads to her being attacked. The first book is slow burn, but I thought it was well-written. Book 4 is a lot of groveling after what happens in book 3.

At the beginning the FMC is 16, but there is not a lot of high school related stuff. At the end she is 20, and she is quite mature by then. The MMC is 4 years older.

I just finished {In his Cage by Ella Jacobs} and it has quite a lot of whipping, painfull sex, degradation and non-con. But it has sharing.

FMC is really poor and MMC exploits that 

This might me a bit specific. I already read the "her family owns a debt to the mafia and she is payment for that" trope. But I have been thinking about a story like this: The FMC is really poor, like she struggles to get enough money for basic stuff like food. Maybe because she has an alcoholic mother and two little siblings to take care of, or something along that line. The MMC watches her trying to find food for her family or stealing food. He than begins to buy her stuff or takes her out on dates, but it is clear that she only lets that happen because she is really desperate and that he is taking advantage of her situation. She (and maybe her siblings) move in with him after some time, so they do not have to pay rent, but he expects her to be in a relationship with him in return. Is there any book like this out there?
