Rosalind Marlow returns to New York to settle her father’s affairs, once one of the city’s most feared mafia bosses, only to find he died beside his greatest rival… and left behind a contract binding her to the rival’s son.
Viktor Marino is cold, calculating, and infuriatingly magnetic.
Rosa has no intention of becoming anyone’s pawn, not in grief, not in business, and definitely not in bed. But Viktor plays a long game, and with every stare, every challenge, he pulls her deeper into a world of secrets, power, and heat.
She was raised to be untouchable.
He was born to conquer.
And in the space between vengeance and desire, someone is going to lose control.
