The Mafia Man's Baby Deal

From the moment Ella Rue stepped into Mateo Cole's bar, he knew she was different. When a picture, drawn by a kid, falls out of her work locker, he has questions. All of his background checks didn't say she had a child. The work was by a child—her own work from many years ago. Being a foster kid, she was used to not being wanted. Ella's desires had not changed. She wanted to have children, be a mother, and to be a wife. She didn't want to be a business woman. Many years ago, Mateo killed his father, along with anyone who dared step in his way. But now, he wants children. He wants a life with Ella, and he knows exactly what to do to make it happen. Ella knew the proposition was crazy. Most people were afraid of Mateo, but not her. She couldn't believe that she was even considering the deal, but it was the best way to get what she wanted. So, they got married, and they began the journey of becoming pregnant. But along the way, something happened. It was no longer a business deal once feelings were involved. A happily ever after isn't in the cards. The mafia does not approve of marrying outsiders, and they will stop at nothing to remove the problem.
