Ivan Petrov
After a brutal year defending the Bratva’s East Coast throne as pakhan, I have only two goals: forge a new alliance to strengthen my weakened position and produce male heirs to safeguard my family’s legacy.
One move will kill two birds with one stone: marry the younger sister of the Scaleras, the brothers who head up the powerful Il Consiglio operation. And after killing my cousin, they can’t say no, not unless they want a blood feud on their hands.
Arranged marriages are nothing new in my world. I’ve been in one before and it didn’t end well. This time round I get to choose—my bride will be young and inexperienced, so I can mold her to my needs.
She’ll start as my daughters’ nanny. A test. A taste. My little bird to cage if she’s the right fit. But when we sign on the dotted line, the enemy strikes. Turns out Gabriella was a false promise. A stolen bride.
Except she’s mine now, and has crawled right into my heart, becoming my only salvation.
You touch her, you die.
Gabriella Scalera
I’ve spent my life running from Randazzo, my fake father, and his vow which bound me to an arranged marriage. When his death shatters the Italian Mafia, I seize the chance to disappear forever.
Fleeing to America with the brothers I never knew—leaders of Il Consiglio—I’m sure I’ve finally outrun my unwanted fiancé. But I was wrong. The other party to Randazzo’s vow still hunts me down, putting my new-found family in danger.
To protect them, I find perfect cover as the nanny to the young daughters of the East Coast Bratva’s pakhan, planning to stay only until I’ve earned enough to vanish for good.
Except, within weeks, I discover I’ve been entangled in yet another arranged marriage vow. This time to Ivan, this older man who is slowly luring me out of my shell and into desire I’ve always denied myself. His slow seduction is breaking down my walls, making me want him, crave him.
But Ivan can never be mine, not when there’s a monster on my tail hellbent on bloodshed. I won’t endanger this man and his two little girls who have all stolen my heart.
Now I’m ensnared in vows I never wanted to make. Cornered by a love I never expected to feel. And left with only two choices…
Run again and watch from afar as those I love get killed.
Or stand my ground and protect them with my life.
