Forced into a marriage neither of them wanted, Valentina Eleni Drakos and Sebastiano Salvatore Riccardi are bound by power, loyalty, and a deal neither of them had a say in.
***
They didn't get along from the start.
Valentina Eleni Drakoshas spent years building something of her own. Raised in a powerful Italian crime family in Milan, she's not interested in being controlled-and definitely not in being married off for the sake of an alliance.
Sebastiano Salvatore Riccardi, born and raised in Sicily, doesn't need anyone in his life. He has his family, his position, and everything under control. Marriage was never part of his plan.
But plans don't matter in their world.
Now they share a name, a house, and a life neither of them asked for.
They don't trust each other. They don't like each other.
And they're not trying to fix that.
So what happens when walking away isn't an option?
***
We were supposed to tolerate each other. Nothing more.
~ Valentina Eleni Drakos
