Happy ever afters rarely last forever.
Nico Desantis and Chiara Russo defied all odds to find love in the heart of Chicago's criminal underworld. Now they're married, and fate seems to be smiling down on them.
But their happy union is the flame that threatens to ignite a war.
A deadly game of cat and mouse commences once they land back home, Chiara becoming the target of an obsessed stalker. Nico's empire is hanging by a thread, his life long work and family legacy are on shaky grounds as old friends turned enemies come out of the woodwork to take it all away from him.
The clock is ticking, and danger lurks in every corner. Their devotion to each other is tested as the web of deceit around them thickens, threatening to swallow them whole.
They must find the stalker before he keeps his deadly promises, and save whatever is left of their business, or else they risk losing everything, including each other.
Will they be able to save one another like they did last time? Or will the pressure finally tear them apart?
Are these events truly unrelated as they have been thinking? Or is their enemy one disguised as many?

Bound Together
They say opposites attract. Maybe that's true-but sometimes, attraction feels more like a trap than a blessing. Years ago, a deal was struck between two powerful families in Paris. A bargain meant to shape the future-one sealed with the lives of their grandchildren. A deal no one can escape, not even fate itself. She was an artist, sheltered and untouchable, raised on the blurred edges of forgotten memories. An orphan whose past had been buried in shadows. He was her childhood best friend, torn apart from her by forces neither could control. But obsession never dies. Loss only sharpens it. And now, her past is knocking at her door-dressed in tailored suits, bloodstained loyalty, and a promise he intends to keep. "I could not fathom the feeling when I first saw you again. It was sharp-like glass lodged beneath my skin. Back then, I didn't understand it. But later, much later, I came to know it for what it was. Love. I fell for you as a boy. I fell again when you stepped into my office, unknowing, fragile, still painted in the light you didn't deserve. And I fell hardest when you became mine. Do not mistake me for a good man. I was never that. But even monsters love-and for you, my love was absolute. Obsession dressed as devotion. Devotion dressed as ruin."
