Soren Moretti looks at me like a bug that needs to be squashed, until he realizes he needs a wife. Soren Moretti is cold, arrogant, and irritatingly handsome. Each time those icy glares narrow on me, I push back. Just because everyone else bows to him, doesn’t mean I have to. And I won’t. His perfect world begins to crumble and those glares turn too dark and hungry for a man who’s about to be married. What I don’t realize is that it’s me who is to become his unwilling bride. Am I just another pawn in his family’s intricate play for power. The lines blur between loyalty and self-preservation, and I have to navigate the mafia world where betrayals lurk around every corner. I’m left wondering what’s real and what’s not. All I know for certain is times up and we’re out of moves. This is a standalone mafia romance.
