The Gilded Chains is a tale of ambition, desire, and the perilous pursuit of freedom. In a village where whispers of an enigmatic nobleman's return stir both fear and fascination, Isabella, a determined young woman, sees an opportunity to escape the harsh realities of her impoverished life. When the nobleman, known for his wealth and charm, takes an interest in her, she believes she can use his affection to secure a better future.

As their relationship unfolds, Isabella is swept into a world of opulence and promises, but the dark, possessive nature of the nobleman soon becomes apparent. Despite warnings from those around her, she convinces herself that she can tame him, believing that love will soften his controlling tendencies.

However, the truth is far more chilling than she could have imagined. On their wedding night, the gilded cage of her new life locks into place, revealing that the nobleman sees her not as a partner, but as a possession to be controlled and dominated. Faced with the painful realization that she has traded one form of bondage for another, Isabella must confront the cost of her ambition.

Torn between breaking free and adapting to her new reality, Isabella's journey becomes one of self-discovery, as she must decide whether to reclaim her agency or learn to live within the gilded chains of her own making.

When Isabella's sister disappears hours before her wedding, chaos erupts inside the grand Salvatore mansion. The media is waiting, the guests are whispering, and the powerful Mafia family stands on the edge of humiliation. To protect the family's name, a single decision is made. Isabella - the quiet, graceful dancer who spent her life away from the world of blood and power - is forced to take her sister's place. She never imagined wearing the gown meant for another. She never imagined saying vows to a man who looked at her like she was a mistake. Dante Salvatore was never meant to lose control. Cold. Ruthless. Unforgiving - he lived by one rule: Never let emotions become weakness. But the moment Isabella steps into his world, everything begins to fracture. He despises her innocence, her defiance, her softness that doesn't belong in his empire of darkness. Yet, he can't look away. And she, despite every warning, can't seem to stay untouched by him. Between stolen glances and broken promises, love and hatred blur until neither can tell where one ends and the other begins. Secrets from the past start to resurface, threatening to destroy everything they're forced to build together. Because destiny may have replaced the bride... but it also awakened something far more dangerous - a love that was never meant to exist. And in a world where loyalty is bought with blood and betrayal comes dressed as devotion, both will learn that sometimes, the wrong beginning can lead to the most unforgettable story.

Wedding Planner x Mafia Boss Grace Hartley, an ambitious wedding planner with a passion for perfection, is hired to organize the wedding of Serena Costa, the youngest member of the powerful and dangerous Costa family.

But when she meets Santino Costa-mafia boss, ruthless protector, and brother to the bride-her world begins to shift. In a world where loyalties are tested and every move is a game, Grace must navigate a fine line between professionalism and the growing pull of a man she knows she should stay away from. But with every passing moment, the wedding she's planning isn't the only thing that starts to feel binding. .......................................... #1 in arrangedmarriage #1 in Italian #1 in fiction #1 in mobboss #1 in Boss
