The Mafia Princess

2023

What if Giovanni Ferretti was never murdered? What if he never extracted that vicious promise from his best friend? What if Luca Romano wasn’t kind to Franco Bianchi on that playground when they were young? What if everything was different? All my life, I, Caterina Rossi, have known my life could only go one way. The college degree, the four years of freedom, all of it has led back to this—my re-entrance into the life that was always meant for me, and a ring like a golden shackle on my finger, binding me to a man who will never love or want me, only use me. That’s the fate of every woman in my position, in this mafia life. And my fate has led me to Luca Romano. I hold the key to the most powerful criminal seat in Manhattan, and to claim it, Luca needs me—whether he wants to marry me or not. But there’s someone else waiting in the shadows—someone who covets what Luca has—and everything he’s waiting to claim. Someone who wants to steal his mafia princess. The Mafia Princess is the first in the What If? series that imagines a different outcome for our beloved heroines and anti-heroes, with plenty of the action, romance and steam you’ve come to expect from M. James’ mafia universe packaged into novella-length stories for each couple. The Mafia Princess features Luca and Caterina. It is a dark romance and may contain some material that sensitive readers may find difficult. You do not need to read the others in M. James’ series to read The Mafia Princess, but if you choose to, the Promise trilogy and Bride trilogy are recommended in conjunction with this standalone novella.

It is a world where passion reigns supreme, and where the pursuit of love can ignite a blaze that consumes all in its path.
