"Bound by Silence"
In the dark underworld of the mafia, power is everything, and love is a weakness that can cost you your life. For Fiona O'Rourke, a mute and innocent young woman, her silence has always been her shield in a world dominated by cruelty-especially against her ruthless father, who views her as nothing more than a pawn in his deadly games.
Alexandro DeLuca is the cold, calculating head of the Italian mafia, feared by enemies and allies alike. He has no room for softness in his life-until an arranged marriage forces him to take a bride he never wanted. Fiona is everything he is not: fragile, kind, and a petite soft woman.
But their union is more than just a contract. It's a collision of wills, a battle between silence and dominance, and an entanglement neither of them saw coming. Together, they must navigate the treacherous path of betrayal, family secrets, and the looming threat of Fiona's cruel father, who will stop at nothing to control the world and destroy Alex.
In a world where love is a dangerous game, can two broken souls find solace in each other? Or will the silence between them become their undoing?
This tale of dangerous power, and unexpected vulnerability.
