"You're a mafia boss," she uttered as he pulled her closer.
"Yup, boss of the Toffee Boys. Problem?" He said, still tasting her skin. He had a strong hold on her waist and back as his lips grazed the sensitive areas of her chest. She pushed him down on the bed and gave him a deep kiss.
"Not at all," she panted. After his clothes were fully off, she let him enter and leaned back. In all of the ecstasy, James almost missed the tattoo on Penelope's lower hip, a small girl holding a honey stick. On top of her head was the exact same black crown.
"F*ck," he thought before his mind fell back into bliss.

James Brooks is having another good day running his candy shop and gang in 1920's London. That is, until the new girl, Penelope Eve, puts a shop and her gang on his turf.
After they get more than personal with each other, Penelope tries to cut ties with James as they compete in the sugar trials to win territory around the world by having the best product.
But can they stay apart? It seems that way when James starts courting Penelope's worst enemy, Beatrice Wells. Will they come together, or will Beatrice and the world of gangs tear them apart?

 History: The highest insult to any Boss is the stealing of their recipe. Stealing a recipe is punishable by death. The death can either be by public execution or by private torture. Dealer’s choice. This rule was made after Australia had her recipes stolen by their assistant and sold around the world. It wasn’t until Africa noticed his friend’s similar taste that he investigated the matter and found the true candy owner.

Because the bar burned down, James and Penelope had to think of another spot to hold their meetings. And with tension brewing outside, James caved and gave her his personal address. While it wasn’t uncommon for bosses to know where each other lived, many thought it was easier to be hidden.
