Synopsis

I pickpocketed my way into a mafia family at nine years old. Patrick O’Connor caught my hand in his pocket, laughed, and took me home instead of turning me over to the police. He gave me his name. His protection. And one rule. Protect his daughter. For twenty years, I’ve done exactly that. So when Erin O’Connor—the Irish Mafia’s golden princess, promised to an Italian kingpin since childhood—begs me to help her run away with the man she actually loves… I say yes. The plan is simple. Dante Salvatore has never seen his bride. The Italians were always meant to meet her at the altar. So I put on Erin’s wedding dress. Take her name. And marry the most dangerous man in Italy. Then Dante looks at me like he already owns me. “Finally,” he says softly. “Mine.” Dante Salvatore didn’t build a mafia empire by trusting lies. He watches me too closely. Tests me too carefully. Waits for the moment I break. But Dante isn’t the only danger inside the Salvatore empire. Luca De Rosa —with snake tattoos, wicked green eyes, and a smile that promises trouble—looks at me like he enjoys watching me unravel. Gabriel Salvatore, Dante’s cold, ruthless cousin and my new bodyguard, sees through every fake smile I wear. Three powerful mafia men. One stolen bride. And a marriage built on a lie that could start a war between empires. Because the orphan raised to protect the princess has somehow become the woman wearing the crown. And if Dante discovers who I really am… He won’t destroy me. He’ll keep me. Especially now that the men surrounding me have started calling me the same dangerous thing. “Our wife.” And the worst part? For the first time in my life… I’m not sure I want to escape.
