“You can hide from anyone—but not from the devil who owns you.”
There are choices that make us and others that break us. For Alessia Rivera, her worst mistake became her only way out.
Alessia Rivera's world came crashing down the night she found her fiancé with her best friend in bed. Trust has been broken, humiliation dumped on her, everything ripped apart. But her family was concerned about power, not her pain. The marriage between her and Damon was politics, not love, and if she refused to play along, they would let her father rot in jail.
One desperate night, Alessia sought escape in the arms of a stranger. A mistake. A secret. A fire that should not have happened.
But Dante Moretti is not a man you forget. He is danger wrapped in a tailored suit, the kind of man people fear to whisper about. Cold. Commanding. Obsessive. And weeks later, Alessia learns the truth that rip her world apart: she is pregnant…And Dante is the father of her unborn child and he is also the mysterious new partner of her family’s empire.
Now she is trapped in a cruel game. Marry the man who betrayed her to protect her father, or confess the truth to the devil who already marked her as his.
To Dante, he doesn’t care about vows, rings, or the lies she hides behind.
He wants one thing—her.
And he will burn her world to ashes to claim what belongs to him.
Because to Dante, love is not tender.
Love is possession.
Love is war.
And Alessia is the only one that can quench this fire.
The question is, how does one resist the devil who already owns her soul?
