His Sin, Her Silence
Grace Hale was raised to be untouchable—the flawless daughter of New York’s most powerful mayor, trained to smile, obey, and survive in silence.
Dean Moretti didn’t believe in untouchable.
He ruled the city from the shadows, a ruthless mafia heir whose world was built on blood, control, and calculated violence.
When he decided Grace would be his wife, it was meant to be a transaction—leverage, protection, necessity.
But Grace wasn’t fragile. And she wasn’t obedient.
The closer Dean came, the more her perfect image fractured, revealing a woman bound by secrets, fear, and a loyalty that was slowly killing her.
Desire ignited where it shouldn’t have. Lines blurred where power once ruled. And obsession turned dangerous when possession began to feel like devotion.
Grace and Dean were pushed into a marriage they didn't completely understand, which had the potential to either free or destroy them.
Because love blossomed in the dark, it demanded everything rather than asking for permission.
