━━ 𝗔 𝗛𝗔𝗥𝗥𝗬 𝗦𝗧𝗬𝗟𝗘𝗦 𝗙𝗔𝗡𝗙𝗜𝗖𝗧𝗜𝗢𝗡 Born into one of the leading Mob families in Chicago, Aria Scuderi struggles to find her own path in a world where no choices are given. Aria was only fifteen when her parents betrothed her to Harry- The Vice - Styles, the oldest son of the head of the New York Cosa Nostra to ensure peace between the two families. Now with eighteen, the day Aria has been dreading for years is looming dangerously: her wedding to Harry. Aria is terrified of marrying a man she hardly knows, especially someone like Harry who got his nickname 'the Vice' for crushing a man's throat with his bare hands. Harry might be one of the most sought after men in New York thanks to his good looks, wealth and predator-like charisma that radiates power, but the society girls throwing themselves at him don't know what Aria does: that the bad boy aura isn't just a game; blood and death lurk beneath Harry's striking green eyes and arrogant smile.In her world a handsome exterior often hides the monster within; a monster who can just as easily kill as kiss you.The only way to escape the marriage to Harry would be to run away and leave everything she's ever known behind but Aria can't bear the thought of never seeing her family again. Despite her fear, she decides to go through with the marriage; Aria has grown up among predators like Harry and knows that even most cold-hearted bastards have a heart and she has every intention of working her way into Harry's.

London, England - 1820 Princess Darya's sad and troubled childhood forced her into a dangerous situation. Escaping to London, she hoped her guardian's son, Harry, would agree to her desperate and unorthodox plan in an effort to keep her safe from harm. Headstrong, intelligent and beautiful, Harry couldn't deny his physical reaction to the dark-haired beauty. He was thoroughly amused as she captivated London society. Although he immediately refused and was angered by her absurd scheme, Harry's protective instincts eventually drove him to agree to her ridiculous plan but only under very strict conditions. Neither could have predicted that their "arrangement" would ignite a passion in their souls. Nor could they have imagined the dangers that lurked in every shadow, following the Princess at every turn and leading Harry to risk his life to save her. **DISCLAIMER** I wrote this story a very long time ago.
