Ruthless Vows

She's a DiMarco. He's a Vettori. A mafia princess offered up as a pawn in a brutal game to end a war.

Serafina DiMarco was raised in the shadows of Chicago's underworld, taught that duty is everything and emotion is a trap. But when she's forced into an arranged marriage with Lorenzo Vettori—the family's most lethal and enigmatic fixer—she refuses to be another casualty in her family's bloody legacy. She vows she will never kneel to the man with the scarred jaw and hypnotic eyes, no matter how much his presence awakens a dark desire she didn't know she possessed.

Lorenzo is a man forged in violence, a ruthless enforcer who sees this marriage as just another transaction. But his new bride is not the docile woman he expected. She is a spitfire, a challenge, a shameless temptation that tests his ironclad control. Their nights are a battlefield of wills, a tantalizing game where passion is a weapon and surrender is unthinkable. Every clash, every touch, every forbidden glance is a spark threatening to ignite a blaze that could consume them both.

But as a new threat emerges, targeting both their families, Serafina and Lorenzo must decide if they can trust their sworn enemy. In a world built on lies and drenched in blood, the most dangerous secret is the one they're keeping from each other: that this war of theirs feels a lot like lust. And in their world, lust can be just as deadly as a bullet.
