His Deadly Sweetheart

Lena Ferro has been washing money through a catering company for six years, which is also how long she's been avoiding the man whose family owns it. Now Dominic Marchetti is in charge, and he has decided he trusts her. That's the problem. Trust is how people end up dead in this family, and Lena has plans that involve being alive and out. When a rival family takes a shot at him on her watch, Lena turns her event calendar into a weapons schedule and runs his counterattack from the kitchen — proving she's the most dangerous asset he owns. She asks for her freedom. He signs the document. Then he does something no Marchetti has ever done. He shows up at her new shop with nothing but an apology and his name, and waits at the door to be let in.
