What would you do if you got an invitation in the mail for your own wedding? Not remembering anyone proposing, or you even saying yes. The worst part is there's no return address so whoever left this knows where I live. Better yet I don't recognize the groom's name. I once knew a Rocco but it's not the same last name he had in foster care. To make it more confusing it says this wedding is supposed to take place in a week. Well, screw whoever this person is because if they are for real, they're delusional. If it's a prank, then it's the worst one ever. My name is Dru Cooper, I've been a fighter my whole life, and I'm not about to lose everything I have worked for in my life just to have it torn away from me...

Bound by lies
ROCCO I don't have time for Russians. Or love. All I care about is revenge-cold, calculated, and personal. I've built my empire on blood, silence, and fear. My enemies know not to cross me. And then she shows up. Rosabelle. Too pretty for her own good. Too naive to be in my world. Too soft for a man like me.. And now she's mine-whether she knows it or not. I told myself I didn't have time for love. But love isn't what this is. This is obsession. This is possession. This is her signing a deal with the devil-and that devil is me. ROSABELLE I love hacking. The thrill. The control.. But my father? He hates it. He wants me quiet and far away from trouble. Then Rocco walks in-cold, dangerous, and terrifyingly gorgeous. The future Don of the Italian mafia. And he offers me a job. Hack for him. Work for the mafia. Leave everything behind-my family, my name, my life. I should've said no. I should've run. But something in his eyes makes me stay. Now I'm tangled in a world of violence, secrets, and temptation. And the most dangerous part isn't the job... It's him. VALENTINA Being the middle child sucks. Forgotten. Overlooked. Never enough. I don't get choices. Not when my life has been one long punishment. Not when I'm the reason my parents are dead. And no one knows the truth-except me. Now, I'm being dragged into a marriage I never wanted, To the last person I'd ever choose. It's political. Strategic. I'm just a pawn in someone else's game. But I'm done being quiet. I've spent my whole life carrying guilt. Now I carry a knife in my boot and secrets in my smile. Because if I have to marry a monster- Then I'll become one too. JAX I should've stopped it. Should've said no. But I didn't. Because the truth is-I never say no to power. And this deal? It's everything I've ever wanted. Power. Money. Legacy. And a pretty girl wrapped in silk and secrets.. And once she's mine, I'm not letting her go. Not even if I have to burn the world to keep her

I groan "You are, but it doesn't mean I like you being away from me in case anything happens" I stress my words, my breath hitting her face in gentle waves. "Shall you put me on a leash too?" She spits defiantly, smelling the tinge of alcohol on her breath, the knife digging deeper into my skin, I feel it's only moments away from piercing through my skin. My eyes snap to her angry contortions, her eyebrows furrowed, mouth slightly agape. "Come on, dance with me. The earth is spinning, we can't just stand on it" ❣️•••❣️ *I do not own any of the pictures used in this book, they belong to their rightful owners. *contains cursing. *contains mature themes. *focuses more on the romantic aspect, but I guarantee there's some action;) HIGHEST RANKINGS: #1 in mafiamarriage #7 in ForcedMarriage #1 in mafiaking #1 in arranged #10 in arrangedmarriage #1 in fastpaced #1 in fake #1 in darkacademia #3 in mafia #1 in marriage #6 in completed #4 in youngadult #1 in enemies #1 in enemiestolovers #1 in drama #1 in spicyComplete
