angstwithhappyending arrangedmarriage dark darkromance enemies enemiestolovers lovers mafia mafiaboss marriage-of-convenience murder romance yearning

All Jasmine has ever wanted is to dance. To lose herself in music, to chase a dream that feels bigger than the small apartment she shares with her struggling family. But dreams don't pay debts-especially not the ones her father owes to the Morozov crime family.

When her father strikes a deal to save himself, Jasmine's life is shattered. She is promised as a bride to Dimitri Morozov, the cold, unreadable heir of the Russian mafia. The price of her freedom? Her first love, Callum-the boy who taught her how to believe in romance-is brutally taken from her.

Jasmine wants to hate Dimitri. She tries to. But beneath his dangerous exterior is a man who swore he would never love, never feel, never need anyone-until her. He's the last person she's supposed to fall for, the only person who could ruin her, and yet...the only one who makes her feel alive again.

"𝐒𝐭𝐫𝐢𝐩, 𝐩𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐜𝐢𝐩𝐞𝐬𝐬𝐚." Olivia groaned and crossed her arms, standing her ground. "Don't tell me what to do. You're not my dad." Amusement filled Santino's gaze as he stood up, abandoning the papers he desperately needed to read and sign. Yet, all that was forgotten as her bewitching lips protruded. "I might not be your dad but," a midnight lock of hair was pinned behind her ear, "I can be your papi." Shuddering, her body drew closer to him, betraying her mind. "You're sick." Taking the nape of her neck, Santino leaned down, his lips brushing against her ear. "Yet you still dream about my touch, don't you, principessa?" ❦ When Santino Adriano discovers that the Bratva has betrayed their neutrality by secretly working with his family's enemies, he's determined to send a brutal message that cannot be ignored. His target? The Bratva kingpin's sister, Olivia Morozov-a sheltered girl who knows little to nothing about the dark underworld her family controls, having been shielded from the darker truths of her family's empire her entire life. Fresh out of boarding school and blissfully oblivious to the power struggle boiling beneath her feet, Olivia is suddenly whisked away from everything she's ever known and thrust into a world where loyalty is weaponised and power is the ultimate prize. As secrets and long-buried lies unravel around her, she realises she's caught in a game where the unrelenting fight for power holds more value than human lives-including her own. Santino is cold, calculating, and relentless - everything Olivia should fear. Yet, she is intrigued by by his deadly nature. The line between fear and attraction is thin, and like a moth to a flame, she seeks him out, unafraid of the burn it may cause. She's never known anyone like him-an older, dangerous man who makes her question everything she thought she knew about desire. Olivia just didn't expect her captor to be so handsome.

Bound by Duty by LiatheCastia

Mariam was never supposed to be his. Forced into an arranged marriage to Sergei Morozov-Dmitri Volkov's ruthless second-in-command-she became a reluctant bride in a world ruled by violence and power. From the moment she stepped into his home, it was war. A battle of dominance, a clash of wills, a dangerous game where neither was willing to surrender. Sergei expected a submissive wife. Instead, he got a sharp-tongued, defiant woman who challenged him at every turn. But the more they fought, the more their fiery hatred burned into something else-something all-consuming. When danger strikes and enemies circle, Mariam and Sergei are forced to confront the truth neither of them is ready to face. In a world where loyalty is everything and betrayal is deadly, trust is the only thing that can save them. But trust has never come easy for them. And in the end, it just might destroy them both. A dark, steamy, enemies-to-lovers mafia romance with explosive chemistry, high stakes, and an antihero who will do anything to keep his wife.

NEXUM (18+) by xplicitlyvenus

𝐍𝐄𝐗𝐔𝐌'𝐒 𝐆𝐔𝐈𝐃𝐄 𝐓𝐎 𝐓𝐎𝐓𝐀𝐋 𝐑𝐔𝐈𝐍 𝐱𝐱𝐱𝐱𝐱𝐱𝐱𝐱𝐱𝐱𝐱𝐱 She's the city's top model. Seen by everyone. Known by no one. She survives by keeping her past sealed tight- every bruise, every secret, every ugly truth locked behind elegance and restraint. Her life is a performance, and she never misses a step. Until she slips... ...and falls straight into the orbit of the man she was taught to despise most. One reckless act- done under the guise of a false persona- sets something irreversible in motion. A line is crossed. A fire is sparked. And the illusion of distance between them shatters. That night leaves her with a hangover, and a realization she can't escape. You don't have to die to go to hell. Some men bring it right to you. He is power without conscience. A presence felt more than seen. The devil everyone fears. She is a mess dressed in designer. A voice that refuses to be silenced. The angel everyone envies. Logic says they should never align. That their worlds, their loyalties, and their sins are fundamentally opposed. Nexum says there couldn't be a better fit. 𝐱𝐱𝐱𝐱𝐱𝐱𝐱𝐱𝐱𝐱𝐱𝐱 𝐁𝐞𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐲𝐚𝐥 𝐇𝐨𝐬𝐭𝐢𝐥𝐞 𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐢𝐞𝐬 𝐒𝐥𝐨𝐰𝐛𝐮𝐫𝐧 @xplicitlyvenus 2025, all rights reserved
