Alessia King is the heiress to the Sicilian Mafia. Being a woman in a world ruled by men is never easy, but as the mafia princess, the stakes are higher than ever. Danger lurks in every shadow, and expectations weigh heavy on her shoulders. When her father, the ruthless Sicilian Don, hires the brooding, dangerous Dante Rossi as her personal bodyguard, a storm brews within the family. Dark secrets and deadly rivalries threaten everything Alessia holds dear. But as Dante vows to protect her, a more dangerous question arises-can they protect their hearts from each other?

She was the price of a debt. He was the devil collecting it. Sofia Murphy lives in a world of color and quiet-a life spent painting soft dreams and hiding from sharp truths. But when her father signs her away to settle a blood debt, she's thrust into the arms of a monster wrapped in a tailored suit. Alessandro Lombardi is a king among criminals. Feared. Worshipped. Deadlier than the sins that built his empire. He doesn't ask for a wife. He takes one. In his world, vows are shackles. Kisses are claims. And love? Love is just another weapon. Sofia is everything he's not-sweet, untouched, innocent, a light he was never meant to hold. But now that he has her, he won't let go. Not when she trembles under his touch. Not when she flinches at his darkness. Not even if she wants to run. Because Alessandro doesn't chase. He hunts. He craves her obedience. Worships her purity. And if she ever thinks of running? He'll track her down with a smile, chain her to his bed, and remind her-slowly, ruthlessly-who owns her body. And who owns her soul. He didn't just marry her. He branded her. And in this house? There's no escape. Only surrender. And if the world dares come between them? He'll burn it to the ground-just to watch her smile in the ashes.
