The Mafia's Arranged Bride
"I’ll give you everything a wife deserves—protection, loyalty, power. But love? I can’t give you that."
That’s what Nicholas Baldocchi said the night he proposed.
Our marriage was never about love. It was a deal—one meant to unite two mafia dynasties and end years of bloodshed. I told myself I could survive it. After all...he was the love of my life. I dared to hope that beneath his cold exterior, there might be something real.
I was wrong.
Now I’m stuck in a cold, loveless marriage with a man in love with someone else and caught in the middle of a war fueled by old family secrets and deep betrayal.
Maximus Vanucci is ruthless and secretive, his thirst for revenge darker than I ever imagined. I am his ultimate leverage. And his obsession.
And he won’t stop at nothing to have me. Even if I belonged to his brother—Nicholas.
In a fight between two enemies bound by blood and sharing a past written in revenge, who will lose everything?
And where will I stand when the storm finally hits?
