The Townie: Dark Romance, Coming Of Age, Mafia, Age Gap, Women's Fiction (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798349372445)

All Dani Sommer wanted was a sexy summer fling before her study abroad. But when the twenty-year-old discovers Sorin Kruk, the hot-as-hell townie bartender, is tied to the Polish mafia, everything changes for the worse. His seductive charm and manipulative ways keep her coming back, drowning out both her intuition and the warnings of her friends and family.

This is not a love story. Dani's fling with Sorin-a forty-year-old with a morally black soul-is the beginning of a saga. Their age-gap relationship spirals into an adrenaline-fueled descent of reckless decisions and dangerous thrills. When Sorin upsets his boss, things take a dark turn, leaving Dani trapped in his house after the mafia tries to use her as a pawn. With tensions running high, the tender guy beneath the bad boy bravado disappears, resulting in abuse escalating to unimaginable heights.

Set against the backdrop of Geneva Lake, Wisconsin, this book explores what happens when you're pushed to your limits-again and again. This isn't just steamy; it's so intense, you won't dare read it in public.

By summer's end, Dani is no longer the same girl. The Townie is a brutal, raw journey from innocence to hard-earned strength.

Tropes: Age Gap, Mafia, Coming of Age, Forbidden Love, Small Town, Dark Romance
