Save Me: A Novel

A heartbroken mobster itching for vengeance. A no-bullshit waitress with a dark secret. Who’s saving who?

Reeling from a former girlfriend’s deep betrayal that nearly destroyed his family, Sam Marcelli, capo of the Marcelli crime family, buries himself in women, parties, and fights. Unhinged and impulsive, Sam’s pretty sure someone’s going to take him out—it just remains to be seen whether his disappointed family or an enemy gets there first. His only solace is a small diner with his favorite long-time server, a salty, fierce, beautiful woman who forces him to eat his veggies while nursing him through hangovers and heartbreak.

But there's more to Daisy than bad diner coffee and banter with Sam over pancakes and eggs. She has a secret. A deadly one. And when her past finally catches up to her, she has a choice: trust the lethally handsome customer who makes her feel safe or turn away from him forever. Because once Daisy gives Sam her heart, there will be no turning back...even if it costs them both everything.
