A Deadly Vow

A pearl is beautiful but it has to endure years under water before it is found. A lion is magnificent but from a distance. How many times have they told you, "Don't touch it or it'll break."? And how many times have they told you, "Don't touch it or it'll bite."? Opposites such as this shouldn't be let together, yet when Albert Laurent, Anastasie's father and leader of the French Mafia, arranges her marriage to Alessandro Salvatore, heir of the Italian mafia, the laws of nature don't seem to matter at all. Anastasie has lived in pain since the day her mother died and has been planning her escape for years, but everything changes with a deadly vow. Alessandro has been searching for an old friend that became a traitor for years and his only ally is the one he never expected to have. When these two halves of the same soul meet, every emotion they shouldn't be feeling comes alive. But in a world where the mafia comes first, love is considered a weakness.
