Description

I never thought I'd be owned by the Italian Mafia.

My father owes them twelve million dollars. Money we don't have. Money that bought my mother's medical treatments and built our perfect life on lies.

Now Vincent Romano wants payment. And when you can't pay the Romano family, they take what matters most.

Me.

He's supposed to be my fake boyfriend. But Dante Romano is nobody's pretend anything.

Dark eyes that see through every lie. Hands that kill without hesitation. A mouth that promises things I shouldn't want from a man like him.

He moves into my penthouse to "protect" me. But I know the truth—I'm not his girlfriend. I'm his prisoner. And when this debt gets paid, I might not survive what comes next.

Then everything changes.

The deeper I dig into my father's business, the more I discover about myself. I'm not the innocent socialite everyone thinks I am. There's something darker growing inside me. Something that craves the danger Dante brings.

Something that wants to fight back.

But in Dante's world, love is the deadliest weapon of all.

When enemies come for me, when bullets fly and blood spills, I learn what it really means to be a Romano woman. It means choosing between the life I thought I wanted and the woman I was born to be.

It means discovering that some debts can only be paid in blood.

And some loves are worth killing for.
