But on my wedding day, the groom disappeared and before anyone could react, his uncle stepped forward. Don Maxton Retroferd, the most feared man in the underworld. Cold, ruthless and Untouchable. And in front of everyone, he claimed me as his wife. I expected him to break me or treat me like nothing more than a pawn in his dangerous world and I prepared myself to survive a man with no heart. But the Don who was supposed to ruin me became the only one who protected me and truly saw me for who I am. Now I’m trapped in a marriage I never wanted… with a man I was never meant to love and the more I tried to resist him, the more I realized that the ruthless Don didn’t just marry me...He claimed me.

"He thought she was a pretty cage. She was the lock, the key, and the woman who'd burned the whole prison down."

Bianca Salvatore has spent her entire life learning one thing: never trust anyone. Raised in foster homes and shaped by a childhood she would rather forget, Bianca had built herself into what had become the nightmare of even the most powerful men in the underworld —a highly skilled, cold-blooded assassin with a reputation for never failing a contract. 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. When Bianca's assassination attempt goes wrong, she finds herself at Luca's mercy. Instead of killing her, Luca offers her a deal, one that changes everything. A temporary alliance between an assassin and the man she was hired to kill. But living together under the same roof changes everything. Luca discovers that the woman sent to murder him is far more complicated than the ruthless killer she pretends to be, with wounds, secrets, and a desperate longing for something she has never allowed herself to want: a home. And Bianca begins to discover that the monster she was sent to kill may not be the monster she believed him to be. 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. And someone is willing to destroy both of them to get what they want. 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?
