Her brain never stops.

He's the first man who makes it quiet.

Jenny My life runs on sticky notes, forgotten keys, intrusive thoughts, and pretending to be less than I really am.

The only place my brain ever slows down is walking dogs.

Then one mischievous little Klee Kai accidentally introduces me to his devastatingly handsome owner... at gunpoint.

Apparently, future mafia bosses don't appreciate finding strangers in their grandmother's house.

Who knew?

Now Joey has inherited two unexpected responsibilities:

His grandmother's dog.

And me.

Joey My grandmother left me a dog I didn't know existed.

Unfortunately, the dog came with a blue-haired dog walker who talks faster than I can think, says whatever pops into her head, and somehow turns my perfectly ordered life into complete chaos.

Jenny isn't anything like the women I was supposed to want.

She's messy.

Honest.

Ridiculously funny.

And completely impossible to forget.

The more time we spend together, the more I realize something no one else ever has.

She isn't too much.

She's exactly enough. As danger closes in around the Four Families, Joey will do anything to protect the woman who finally trusts him enough to let the world see the real her—even if it means sacrificing the future he's spent his entire life preparing for.

Because some things are worth starting a war over.

Even if they come with muddy paw prints. Love and Loyalty is a spicy mafia rom-com.
