Arranged to marry a rich guy she has never heard of, because she never watched all the gossip channels or TV in general. Cara Winters comes home after a hard day of working at the cafe, only to have her father tell her that she was getting married in just two weeks to a guy she didn't know existed up until that moment. And she has no way of opting out, because she would then have to pay a large sum of money that she cannot come up with even if she had more than one lifetime. Zander Morreti could not believe his ears when his father looked at him impassively, as he told him that he was going to get married in just two weeks. He had never in his life imagined that he would get married at such a young age let alone an arranged marriage to a waitress. IT'S THE 21ST CENTURY!! Who does that? Apparently his father and he had no option if he ever wanted to inherit the company. ............ ...he could not believe she had caught him just when he had succumbed to the advances of his secretary!! He got to their room only to find only most of her things missing. As he collapsed on the bed, something caught his eye. On the dresser was a white paper. He quickly picked it up and what he saw almost gave him a heart attack. In his hand was an ultrasound with his wife's name on it. ............ ...he could not believe she had caught him just when he had succumbed to the advances of his secretary!!

The strong pull to her. The desire to have something you never thought you would want again. A glance turned into an obsession. And he would stop at nothing to get her. He would do anything he could to keep her. He cared so much for only her Alessio Bucceri was a man who could have anything he ever wanted. Until he wanted that one thing to need him back. Circumstances run in his favor as the woman of his dreams landed into his domain. He would never let her go. A chance glance turned obsession. #1 BWWN! #1 Mafia [4/12/24] *Book excerpt* -- Her cheeks turned red, ever so slightly through her chocolate skin. Her skin looked and felt so smooth. She liked the compliments, the Italian flare. It ropes many women, but the way she looked at me with her big almond eyes had my mind racing and my body in overdrive. She was not immune to my charm, even in her current situation. Her hair was in a slick bun. I was sad not to be able to see the curls adorne her face. And yet she stared at me again, watching me like a dog. Curious gazes. It was fun to tease, and the response I got back over affirmed my teasing. She seemed more relaxed with me. She looked away from me. She stared out the window watching the street ride by. It was silent for a while as I texted my subordinates basic commands. Nothing conspicuous. "Alessio, where are you taking me," her voice piped up. Seems like it took her a while to muster up the courage. I loved her sweet voice when it spoke me me and when she said my name... It was such a turn-on. She wasn't supposed to really ask questions. I don't like lots of questions. I thought about the best way to respond but opted not to say anything at all. She was as stubborn as always, forgetful too. She scanned around me before huffing to herself and looking back out the window. -- Started 06/08/2023- 8/14/2023 Highest Rankings: #7 Arranged [4/26/24] #26 Older #1 Bwwm #13 Man #1 Mafia #1 lovetragedy #6 lovestory #5 Blackwomen

An arranged marriage. A deal struck between a new King and Queen. Lies and acts to prove their reign to power hungry nobles. And a gravitational pull towards one another that neither can nor want to stop. Alessia: I left everything behind. My home, my brothers, and the boy I loved who was going to take me away from my father's control. However, all that changed the second my father shipped me off to France to marry their new and young King Darian. It's clear he carries the wait of his family on his shoulders. I know our marriage is a sham to appease his court and I am nothing but a pawn always being shifted around my father's game. But what my father doesn't realize is that he made a Queen in his deal. And I'll be damned if I fall for a king who may never love me back. Darian: I wanted nothing to do with this arranged marriage. But from the moment I saw her everything changed. In exchange for promising to never send her home at her request I got her to agree to playing the part of the happy married couple to appease the nobles trying to take my family's power. However, once I start falling for my beautiful and strange wife who can wield a bow better than anyone I know and never fails to surprise me I know things are about to get a lot more complicated. And I'm starting to regret ever making this a fake marriage in the first place.
