Bound by More Than Vows
Florence never expected her ordinary life to become a wedding dowry. Traded by her father to secure a dangerous alliance, Florence finds herself engaged to Hades Williams-a ruthless man who commands respect through fear and controls his empire from the shadows. He's devastatingly handsome, but there's blood on his hands and darkness in his soul. Their marriage is a business transaction in his violent world. No emotions. No intimacy. Just a contract that keeps enemies at bay and strengthens his power-or so they tell themselves. But Florence isn't the innocent pawn everyone expects her to be. Raised by herself in a world that showed no mercy, she's learned that survival means being sharper than the knife at your throat. She doesn't want his blood money, his fortress of a mansion, or his lethal protection. She just wants to be more than a pretty face to clean up his brutal reputation. Hades thought he was getting a naive wife to play the perfect mafia princess. Instead, he got a woman who doesn't flinch at broken glass or shattered bones, who sees through his cold facade, and who refuses to be just another casualty in his war against his own father's empire. As their worlds collide in a storm of violence and vendetta, they'll discover that some bonds are forged in fire and blood-and that sometimes the most dangerous thing you can do is fall for someone in a world where love makes you a target. When love meets the mafia world, will it bloom into something beautiful-or will it destroy everything they've fought to protect? Florence & Hades - In a marriage built on lies and violence, can their hearts survive the bloodbath?Complete
Marked by blood
In the harsh streets of Naples, amidst a cold, rainy night, stands an eight-year-old girl, carrying on her shoulders a past heavier than her years. Marie... a girl who wasn't born an orphan, but fate stole her mother, then her innocence at the hands of a father addicted to alcohol and gambling, before tossing her out of his life like a worn-out piece of cloth. But in a moment of despair and loss, a luxurious black car stopped, and a man named Lorenzo Marini stepped out... a mysterious businessman who lived between the luxury watch trade and, beneath it, the illicit arms trade. He adopted her, hid her from the world, and raised her in the shadows, far from the eyes of his four children... children who had no idea of her existence. Fifteen years later, when he reunites them in the family mansion, he announces his intention to marry. The children prepare to confront the strange woman their father will marry... But the shock lies not in the woman, but in Marie herself. The little girl who has grown into a beautiful young woman holds within her a remarkable power and a secret that could tear the family apart... or bring it back together. But will they fall in love with her? Or into her trap? And does Lorenzo truly want the best for her... or is he manipulating her as part of a game much bigger than love?Complete
