Anastasia: Empress of Heirloom Anastasia is a formidable businesswoman, renowned as the Empress of Heirloom in the world of luxury jewelry. Her life is a carefully crafted façade of success and sophistication, but beneath the surface lies an obsession that could unravel everything she has built. When she's asked to enter a fake marriage with the one man she cannot stop thinking about, her world is turned upside down. This secret arrangement could jeopardize everything she's worked for, but Anastasia is willing to risk it all to maintain the illusion. Giovanni: CEO of Galleria di Lusso Auction House I never wanted to ask Anastasia to be my fake wife. She's too enigmatic for her own good-juggling a high-profile business and clandestine mafia connections with a grace that's almost impossible to fathom. The more time I spend with her, the more I find myself drawn to her. Yet, despite the growing comfort between us, I can't shake the feeling that she's hiding something crucial. The deeper I dig, the more I realize that our arrangement might be more perilous than either of us anticipated. [Heads up, readers! If you're looking for the usual icy-cool mafia MMC, you're in for a surprise. My male lead is an emotional guy who knows how to be ruthless, think of him as a teddy bear in a black leather jacket. He might shed a tear or two before making you an offer you can't refuse! But if you're not comfortable with a man being emotional and respectable, this story might not be for you.]
