ENEMIES WITH BENEFITS WHO GET SHOVED INTO A ARRANGED MARRIAGE BOOK ........... They don't kiss. They clash. They were born into violence and raised to be monsters. He kills on command, leaves bodies as warnings, and smiles while doing it. She's just as lethal-sharp blades, sharper words, and a temper that's ended men twice her size. Their families are sworn enemies, their blood feud written in gunfire and graves. Their affair was never tender. It was teeth and nails. Knives pressed to throats. It was rage-fueled sex that felt like war-hands around throats, promises whispered like threats, pleasure taken out of spite. Then their parents catch them. Instead of punishment, they're forced into a marriage meant to stop the bloodshed. A contract signed in blood. A wedding guarded by armed men. Now they're bound together, wearing rings like restraints. Their fights turn violent. Their nights turn feral. Hate bleeds into obsession, and obsession into something far more dangerous. They're trapped in a gilded cage, sharing a bed they swore they'd never sleep in willingly, playing devoted spouses while plotting each other's destruction. Marriage turns their private war into a public contract. A shared bed becomes a battleground. Arguments end with hands slammed against walls, steel glinting between them, promises whispered like threats. Every touch dares the other to flinch. Every moment alone feels like it could end in blood-or something far worse. Every argument ends with threats. Every touch feels like a challenge. Every night is a battle neither can afford to lose. Because in the mafia, marriage is a weapon-and when hate tastes this good, love might be the deadliest sin of all. .............. "They call it peace. I call it a prettier kind of war."

Logan Romano didn't just enter the NHL. He tore through it. Dark. Brooding. Untouchable. With brutal talent and a reputation as cold as the New York winter, Logan dominates both the ice and every room he walks into. He doesn't lose. He doesn't bend. And he certainly doesn't fall in love. Not after the last time. Not until November Levine crashes into his life like a beam of sunlight he never asked for. She's warmth where he's storm clouds. She's soft where he's jagged edges. A walking contradiction to everything Logan swore he needed. When a deal forces the polar opposites under one roof, tensions ignite fast. Teasing turns to feuds. Feuds turn into something dangerously close to desire. And Logan is forced to confront the one promise he's never broken. Because once you step into the light- it's impossible to return. ✩ Grumpy x sunshine • forced proximity • slow burn Will the hockey captain cross that line? ✩ "Nova." I whisper, my voice low and hoarse against her neck. "Stop it." "Stop what." She whimpers back innocently as her thighs tighten around my hips. My teeth nip at the skin on her jaw in warning. "Either stop teasing, or put me out of my fucking misery." November pulls her head back from mine, resting it against the wall, and bats her lashes up at me. "Say please."

Orazio Ricci never planned to settle down, let alone marry a woman he's never met. But loyalty to his family means sacrificing his freedom, and now he's stuck with a stranger who's as icy as she is breathtaking. Anastasia Nosov, the daughter of a powerful Russian Don, is used to surviving alone. Trust isn't easy for her, especially not with the cocky, golden-skinned man who looks at her like he's undressing her with his eyes. She was the Don's Fiancee, but now she is his. Forced to live under the same roof, the reluctant sexual tension between them ignites into something hotter and far more dangerous than either expected. Anastasia sees past Orazio's easy charm to the fiercely protective heart he hides, and Orazio realizes that beneath Anastasia's cool mask is a woman who's been hurt too deeply to trust easily. When a threat from Anastasia's past comes hunting, the walls between them fall. What started as obligation becomes devotion. What started as heat becomes love. But loving Anastasia might cost Orazio everything, and he's never been one to lose a fight.

It starts with a contract, not a love story. After a mission in Spain goes wrong, Aleksandra Mikhailovna Dragunova, Moscow's Bratva princess, is ordered to marry the lion of Sicily to stop a war. One wrong deal. One betrayal. One forced marriage between two empires that should never mix... and a slow-burn obsession that could burn them all. Hunted by her own world and driven out of every safe house and city, Aleksandra has one way left to survive: align with the Spadaro family. A ring she never wanted becomes her only shield. Domiziano Massimo Spadaro, Underboss and the heir to the Black Lion's crown, was raised on blood oaths and loyalty. His loyalty is the kind that makes men fear his name more than the law. When the contract lands on his desk, he doesn't see a bride; he sees a liability wrapped in strategy. A Dragunov. A woman he is ordered to claim, never trust. Aleksandra led men who killed at her word and bled at her feet. Her rules were simple: freedom over fairy tales. Power over promises. Control over love. They walk into the marriage as enemies, bound by ink, not choice. They promise themselves one thing: do not fall. ~~~ "He was supposed to be my protection. Not my addiction." ~ Aleksandra Dragunova

𝐖𝐈𝐍𝐓𝐄𝐑 𝐁𝐀𝐂𝐀𝐑𝐃𝐈 everyone knows who she is. Worldwide model, covered in many vogue magazines, walked catwalks, and runaway. But people don't know what happens behind the curtains. Despite the many scandals that have plagued her reputation, many people continue to idolize her, but little do they know what happens behind the scenes. Her crazy lifestyle, the drugs, the alcohol, the parties, the sex, it all comes crashing down to her on due to one night. Secrets unravel, and so does her reputation. 𝐋𝐔𝐂𝐀𝐒 𝐇𝐀𝐘𝐄𝐒 the man whom every woman falls to their knees who gets an ounce of attention from him. The playboy, he fucks around but never stays long enough to stick around. He's always finding ways to get into trouble, which is the exact thing that winter needs to stay away from, but she finds herself struggling to get away from him, as he appears in every corner she takes. Together, they were a beautiful yet completely tragic mess.

𝐈𝐒𝐀𝐁𝐄𝐋𝐋𝐀 𝐇𝐀𝐌𝐏𝐓𝐎𝐍 is the fireball of the group-the life of the party, the girl who always knows how to have fun, and the friend you can always rely on. She believes in love like it's written in the stars, like it's meant to be grand and all-consuming. But what most people don't see is the bleeding heart beneath her confident smile. The same heart that beats fiercely for love is the same one that shatters the hardest. And now, she's starting to wonder-does love heal, or does it only wound? 𝐓𝐑𝐀𝐕𝐈𝐒 𝐁𝐑𝐎𝐖𝐍 is the guy who never takes anything seriously. He's the one cracking jokes when the room gets tense, the one who turns everything into a game, the friend who always has your back. People love him for it, but they don't realize that it's his way of keeping his own demons at bay. His laughter masks the weight he carries, the things he'd rather drown in another drink than face. But some pain can't be laughed off, and some losses can't be undone. She's searching for something real. He's terrified of facing reality. But when the lines between them blur, when love becomes both the wound and the cure-will he finally step up before she slips away for good?

"𝐘𝐨𝐮'𝐫𝐞 𝐟𝐮𝐜𝐤𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐬𝐨𝐚𝐤𝐞𝐝, 𝐓𝐚𝐥𝐢𝐚." Natalia glared at Lorenzo and tried crawling away from him once more, every cell in her body screaming for her to run as far away as she could. "How many times do I need to cum before you're satisfied?" Natalia panted against him, desperate noises leaving her mouth as the sixth orgasm started building in the pit of her stomach. Lorenzo pulled her closer when he sensed the girl crawling away, ignoring her whimpers as he grew rougher. "Until you realise this is a punishment, not a reward." "And when has excessive orgasms ever been a punishment?" "Let's see if you'll think the same in a few hours." ❦ Natalia Martin was simply on a work trip. Simply on a work trip when she happened to meet Lorenzo Valiente, not knowing that kissing him would change her life, not knowing that taking him to her hotel room would change her life, not knowing that offering him to stay would change her life. But neither had Lorenzo. Lorenzo Valiente hadn't expected that having sex with the strange woman would force her into hiding and that he'd feel compelled to take her in and undo what wrongs he had done by accidentally putting a bounty on her head. His status as capo dei capi had never affected the clueless women he fucked until then. And it was not like he had intended to put a million-dollar bounty on the young successful career woman's head. He just thought that her eyes were pretty. That her dimpled cheek was cute. And that her bright smile made his heart skip a beat.

"You ruined me, Katherine." I glance at her-her lips slightly parted, her hand still wrapped around mine. Even asleep... she won't let go. And that alone nearly breaks me. A bitter laugh slips out of me, low and cracked. "Look at me now," I murmur. "Fuck... I'm screwed. Really fucking screwed." ............................................................................ He was hired to protect her. He was born to destroy her. Katherine Volkov was born from blood and tragedy-the daughter of Damiano David Volkov and Caterina, whose story shattered hearts in The Price of Deception. (Haven't read it yet? Go dive into the chaos, obsession, and twisted romance that started it all.) Now grown, Katherine is beauty wrapped in armor. Raised under her father's iron rule-protected, feared, untouchable. Cold, calculating, and painfully beautiful, she's more than just a mafia princess... She's a ticking time bomb of secrets, grief, and fire. Until Lorenzo Moretti steps into her life. A powerful mafia boss with a vendetta against the Volkov empire. Damiano's sworn enemy. He didn't take the job to protect her-he took it to destroy her. But the closer he gets, the harder it becomes to separate hate from hunger... Revenge from desire. She was supposed to be his target. Now, she's his obsession. And if Damiano finds out? This silent war will turn into a bloodbath. He was meant to end her bloodline. Now he's ready to burn the world to keep her alive. In a world of betrayal, bullets, and blood... Love was never supposed to be part of the deal. ✨✨ Hey lovelies, I'm back 🤭 I'm beyond excited to finally share this story with you!
