Catherine Marzanna Owner of Marzanna Fashion and Shipping Kansas City I started Marzanna Fashion and Shipping ten years ago, and we made a name for ourselves across the country. Recently, they told me we need fresh talent; I reluctantly agreed. New designers are good for business, even if I am misanthropic. I let my team handle the hiring process. Then they hired her- a gorgeous, voluptuous girl. My first thought was Mine . She is my employee. She is younger than me. All I can think about is how she will feel in my arms. My life is too dark for her, too dangerous. But the need to claim and pleasure her is overwhelming. I can keep her safe if I keep her close. The war between keeping her close but removed from my secrets is relentless. I can't stay away from her. Corrupt Goddess is the first book in a series of interconnected standalones. It is first chronologically but does not need to be read first. It is a sapphic mafia romance with dark scenes and explicit content.
