Description

She'd hoped marriage to a mafia prince would protect her.

She didn't realize it would ruin her.

To escape the clutches of her obsessive and ruthless ex, Catalina Alvarado is forced into the arms of the heir to the infamous Conti crime family. Angelo Conti is cold, calculated, and sinfully magnetic. But beneath the blood-stained suits and frosty gaze lies a man haunted by secrets, and he's drawn to Catalina in ways neither of them can deny. Angelo's used to taking what he wants, but he never asked for a bride, especially not a bold, fiery woman bringing only chaos to the life he's spent controlling.

Their marriage should be nothing more than a contract— a shield of protection forged in blood and duty. But Catalina's strength and innocence unsettle the darkness Angelo's always embraced. With every heated gaze, every accidental touch, lines blur between duty and desire, between protection and passion.

In a world where love is a weapon and loyalty demands sacrifice, some vows are written in fire…and some hearts are destined to turn to ash.
