Ties of Vengeance - Book 1

In the shadowy underworld of New York's mafia, Madeline Lombardi was thrust into a deadly game of power, betrayal, and schemes. Born into one of the most feared crime families, she never wanted to become a pawn, yet the betrayal of those closest to her sends her spiraling into a marriage of convenience with her family's rival-the alluring and dangerous Luca De Romano.

Luca, cold and calculating, has his own dark reasons for agreeing to the union. Bound by an oath to destroy his nemesis, his heart is locked behind walls of fury and vengeance. But every look, every touch with Madeline ignites a fire in him. Beneath their smoldering tension, dangerous secrets begin to unravel as Madeline learns that her once-loyal family may have set her up in ways she never imagined. With each passing day, their desire simmers, threatening to consume them both.

As the brutal undercurrents of mafia loyalty pull them deeper into a deadly plot, Madeline must decide: Can she trust the man whose hands are stained with the blood of enemies and whose lips whisper promises she longs to believe? Or is Luca using her like another pawn of a cheese piece, spinning her feelings into a web of lies?

"Ties of Vengeance" is a dark romance and seductive tale of passion, power, and revenge, where love doesn't conquer all-but it might just destroy everything.
