The Ruthless Alliance

Cover made by @Ecelra

---

For decades, the Russian Bratva and the Italian mafia have been at war. Now, one marriage is supposed to end it.

Viktoria Romanov is a name spoken in hushed whispers-cold, calculating, and feared by all. As the ruthless leader of the Bratva, she has spent years carving her place in a world dominated by men. The last thing she needs is a husband. Especially him.

Matteo Vincenzi never wanted this life, let alone an arranged marriage to the woman who embodies everything he stands against. Viktoria is untouchable, unreadable, and entirely in control-except Matteo refuses to be another piece on her chessboard.

Bound by a fragile truce, they are enemies forced to play the roles of husband and wife. Every glance is a silent war, every touch a battle neither wants to lose. But when betrayal and bloodshed threaten to reignite the war between their families, the lines between love and hate begin to blur.

Because in a world where loyalty is deadly and trust is nonexistent, the most dangerous thing they can do... is fall for each other.
