Ruthless. The billionaire CEO of Titan Capitals. He gave me one offer: Marry him instead. It was supposed to be a simple contract, one year, one million dollars in alimony, and a convenient wife to stop his grandmother's endless blind dates. I thought I could survive it. I was wrong. Because Dominic doesn't just want a wife on paper. He wants control and obedience. And he wants me in his bed, under his rules, and eventually, in his heart. What started as revenge against my cheating ex slowly turns into something far more dangerous. Because the man I married to save my family might be the only one who can truly break me… or put me back together.

He told me he wouldn't call. I told him he would. I was right. He pushed me away. I pushed back. He put a gun in my nightstand and a penthouse key in my palm and told me he'd burn the whole city down before he let anyone touch me. "You're playing a dangerous game,Gaby." "I've been playing a dangerous game since the night I sat down at your table." He's a killer. I knew that from the start. The silver hair. The steady hands. The way his body moves before his brain has time to catch up. He's possessive. Ruthless. Cold as the blade he used to carry-until he's not. Until his fingers are in my hair and his mouth is on my throat and every rule he's ever made about keeping people out goes up in smoke. "I can't promise you a future." "Then promise me tonight."

“I now pronounce you husband and wife,” the priest announced, a knowing smirk tugging at his lips. “You may now kiss your bride.” Enzo Caruso’s jaw tightened. His new wife was nothing like the woman he expected. “Don’t expect me to be gentle,” he warned. He didn’t wait for permission. His hand locked around her chin, and his mouth crashed against hers—dominant, demanding, and meant to remind her who was in control. But he forgot one thing. Lokie Martin never submitted. She bit him. Hard. Enzo stumbled back with a sharp hiss, blood dripping from the corner of his lips and staining his perfect white sleeve. “Psycho bitch,” he snarled. Lokie only smiled. Slowly, she licked the blood from her lips, her eyes gleaming with something dangerously wild. “Now,” she whispered, “we’re married.” And for the first time in Enzo Caruso’s life, he wondered if he had just married his greatest enemy… or his greatest obsession.

A woman with sharp teeth, a sharper tongue, and a soul too broken to be tamed. Their marriage was supposed to be a temporary alliance. Until hatred turned into fascination. Fights became the only moments they understood each other. Till neither of them could walk away.

Then she is given the contract of a lifetime: kill Luca Vincenzo, the ruthless and untouchable leader of the most powerful mafia cartel in Boston. Luca is everything Bianca has been trained to kill—dangerous, calculating, wealthy, and seemingly impossible to kill.

A temporary alliance between an assassin and the man she was hired to kill. But living together under the same roof changes everything.

As their attraction grows, the lines between captor and captive, enemy and ally, slowly begin to disappear. But love is dangerous in the mafia world.

Bianca must decide what is more important to her: the freedom she has spent her entire life fighting for, or the man she was supposed to kill. When an assassin falls in love with her target, the dangerous question is not who will die? But who will betray whom first?
