his ruby

At twenty, Ruby is handed over to one of the most feared men in New York's criminal underworld - a cold, ruthless mafia underboss who chose a wife for practicality, not love. Damon expects obedience, silence, and a marriage that fits neatly into the life he already built. Ruby, raised to believe a good wife never causes problems, tries desperately to become whatever he wants her to be.

But living with Damon means learning the difference between being protected and being controlled, between being wanted and being loved. And as violence closes in around the Landan family, Ruby may become the one thing Damon never expected to have: something he cannot afford to lose.
