After ending up in the wrong place at the wrong time, Scarlett makes a choice which leads her into the dark and dangerous world of powerful- and annoyingly attractive- mafia leader, Julio Marcello Armani.
 She wants him, no matter how much she hates him. He wants her, no matter how much she infuriates him. The only thing separating them are the impossibly high walls they have built around themselves- that and the pride they both possess which each of them refuse to let crumble.
 As desire rises between them, will they give into temptation or will their demons pull them further apart?
When Scarlett uncovers dark secrets of her past and as forces begin to conspire against them, there is only word to describe this:
Trouble.

Just as his fingers were trying to push past my underwear my hand grabbed onto his wrist. "Don't," I warned, in a low voice making sure nobody would notice. "Watch me fuck you in front of every single person here unless Tobias stops looking at you like that." He explained. I glanced over to Tobias who was looking angrier than ever. If Tobias didn't stop looking at me not only would my husband keep to his word, someone would send a bullet through his skull. *+*+* Scarlett Salvadore was to be married to a man she hated with all her heart to increase her father's power. Aleksander Petrov was to be married to a woman he hated with all his heart to make amends with some of the Italian mafia.

Will it grow the passion they have for each other or will their families history destroy it? *+*+* "I hope you realize that you belong to me now. In fact, you've always belonged to me, before and after the wedding ring on that finger of yours." I rolled my eyes at his words, still not forgetting the things he said to me before. "I'm just as much yours as you are mine, and don't you forget it, Aleksander." I snapped, pointing at his hard chest. "Prove it." A smirk appeared on my lips.
