I was promised to marry a Bernardi. A ruthless Irish Mafia family who occupies a seat of the Commission, alongside my family. But when the man I was to marry turned his back on me, the responsibility fell to another, the first Heir in line for the Bernardi Mafia throne. Bruno Bernardi is not the man I love. But he’ll take me. Like the beast he is. He’ll force me to want him…even if it’s for protection. Because there are monsters waiting for me in the dark. Monsters who want to claim the only heir of the Valachi throne. And one of them is pretending to be me.
