Blood & Vows

In the underworld, peace doesn't come through mercy.
It comes through blood.
And contracts inked with the lives of the innocent.

Alana Leclair never asked to be a pawn.
But when her father, Victor Leclair - head of the French syndicate - signed away her future in exchange for a ceasefire, she became exactly that.

The price? Her hand in marriage to Dante Russo.
The cold, calculated heir of the most feared mafia family in New York.
The man she's hated since the day their eyes first locked like loaded guns.

Dante didn't want a bride.
He wanted revenge.
But a vow is a vow, and to keep their families from tearing each other apart, he's forced to marry the enemy's daughter - the girl with fire in her eyes and venom on her tongue.

They wear masks at the altar.
Smiles sharp enough to cut, hearts locked behind vaults of fury and betrayal.
But beneath all the hatred, something burns.
Unspoken.
Uncontrollable.
Unforgivable.

In a world where loyalty means everything and love is a fatal weakness...
Can enemies bound by blood ever survive their vow?

Let the war begin.
This time, behind closed doors.

Alana Leclair POV:
I am the daughter of a powerful but cold family caught in a brutal war with the city's most feared mafia clan now I have to marry the monster feared by everyone and my ENEMY- Dante Russo....

Dante Russo POV:
That's me. The cold, ruthless mafia boss with a reputation for breaking enemies like bones but a secret weakness I'd die for...Our families force us into an arranged marriage to stop the bloodshed, but here's the catch: We hate each other on sight. You think I'm a heartless monster. I think you're a spoiled, reckless princess who doesn't know the real streets.
