Luciano Romano has never wanted a wife. As the thirty-two-year-old head of the Romano Syndicate-the largest and most powerful crime organization in Europe-his life belongs to his empire. Duty comes before everything, and love has never had a place in it. Amara Kozlova has never belonged anywhere. The hidden, illegitimate daughter of the head of the Kozlova Bratva, she spent her life in the shadows of the family that refused to acknowledge her. Provided for, but never accepted, she learned to survive by becoming invisible. When a ruthless criminal empire known as **The Obsidian Cartel** threatens to destroy the balance of the underworld, two rival syndicates are forced into an uneasy alliance. The price of peace is a marriage neither of them ever wanted. Bound by duty, Luciano and Amara begin their lives as strangers sharing nothing but a vow. But as loyalty is tested, enemies close in, and war looms over Europe's most powerful crime families, the distance between them slowly begins to disappear. In a world where trust is earned, betrayal is deadly, and every promise is written in blood, their arranged marriage may become the strongest alliance of all-or the very thing that brings their empires to ruin.

Camryn Wells wasn't trying to rebuild her life so much as outrun the version of it that nearly destroyed her. After a year and a half off the grid, nursing wounds no one could see and some that still ached like hell, she's back in Pittsburgh. Sort of. She's here for Gwen, the woman who adopted her, who's now fading into early-onset dementia. She's on night shift, working trauma at PTMC, trying to remember the nurse she used to be-and to convince her small army of overprotective siblings that she's fine now. That she's not the broken girl they saw in that hospital bed in Boston. Camryn is sunshine incarnate: bright-eyed, too kind, stubbornly hopeful, and despite everything, still believes in second chances. What she didn't plan on? Her new next-door neighbor just happens to be the gruff, quiet, unflinchingly calm ED attending who runs her shift with surgical precision... and dry quips that cut sharper than a scalpel. Dr. Jack Abbot doesn't do distractions. Not from interns. Not from administration. And definitely not from the impossibly cheerful nurse who crash-landed into his backyard and, somehow, into his life. Guarded, fiercely competent, and more at ease in chaos than comfort, Jack prefers solitude-until Camryn. With her pastel mugs, man-hating cat, and maddening habit of calling him out with a smile, she worms her way into every corner of his neatly boxed-off world. She's not what he expected. And he's exactly what she wasn't ready for. But on the night shift, where everything broken comes through the door eventually, maybe they'll both learn healing doesn't always look like what you thought.
