Our gaze locks studying me like he's trying to piece something together. My breath catches in my throat. There's a deep, jagged scar that runs from beneath his left eye down to just under his ear. Instead of making him look rough, it only adds to his untamed, dangerous sex appeal. My eyes drift lower, down to his neck. A dragon tattoo. The moment I see it, my body tenses. He didn't flinch under my stare. He is breathtaking-mysterious, dark, and dangerously sexy. Every inch of him radiates strength, from his broad shoulders to the way his muscles flex under his shirt. There's something raw and powerful about him, something that sends desires down my clits I swallow hard, my throat dry. My gaze is fixed on his onyx eyes, so dark as they blend into the shadows. But there's something eerily familiar. "Why are you here?" His voice is low, almost a whisper, as his fingers trail down my cheek, tracing the curve of my jaw with a slow touch. "I... I don't-" My voice is tangled in a haze of alcohol and something far more dangerous. A smirk tugs at his lips. "I know what you're thinking," he murmurs, his thumb brushing the corner of my mouth. "You want me to take you. To make you forget." Heat floods my body, and I can't stop myself from nodding. "Just for tonight," I breathe. "Make me forget." *** Alessia's arranged marriage to Vincenzo is meant to end a bloody feud between their families.

Maria Orsini was only sixteen when her father, a Capo, died protecting the life of Vittorio Rossi, the powerful Mafia Godfather. Devastated, Don Vittorio makes a decision that will change Maria's life. He arranges her marriage to his son, Donatello Rossi, the cold, powerful heir to the Rossi empire, although his son is twelve years older than Maria and in love with another woman. Following the strict code of the Mafia, where the Godfather’s word is law, Donatello accepts the marriage out of duty, not love. He is in love with Sophia Bellini. To the cold, authoritative Donatello, Maria is little more than a burden,just a responsibility he never wanted. He is never deliberately cruel to her. That almost makes it worse. He gives her a beautiful home, security, servants and everything money can buy, but never gives her the one thing she desperately wants: him. Maria grows into a beautiful young woman inside a marriage that feels like a prison. Quiet, loyal and painfully in love with her husband, she waits for Donatello to see her as his wife rather than his father's obligation. Then, unexpectedly, something changes. Maria and Donatello become closer. Then Sophia Bellini returns. She had married another man after Donatello failed to choose her, but the marriage has ended badly. Sophia comes back to Donatello just as he is vulnerable. She tells him she never stopped loving him. And Donatello, lets her back into his world. At first, Maria tries to believe it means nothing. Then she sees the way Donatello looks at Sophia. The tenderness he denied Maria. After giving this man three years of her youth, her love and two sons, she may still be the woman he chose only because he couldn't have the woman he wanted.
