The Underboss's Bride
She was never meant to belong to him.
But fate-and a contract written in blood-gave her no choice.
Leonardo
, the ruthless underboss of the Cosa Nostra, was forged in pain and vengeance. Cold. Dangerous. Merciless. When betrayal cost him his family, he swore to destroy everyone responsible. Nothing and no one could stand in his way-until her.
Jaqueline
is a fierce, hardworking woman who's spent her life protecting her family. But when her sister's life is threatened, Jaque makes a desperate deal with the devil himself. She becomes the possession of a man feared by all... and desired by none.
What begins as a forced arrangement turns into something far more dangerous.
He wants control. She wants freedom.
But when Leonardo discovers the secret she's been hiding-the child growing inside her-he vows never to let her go.
Trapped in a marriage built on lies and obsession, Jaque finds herself torn between hate and desire, danger and safety, the monster and the man.
In the world of the mafia, love is just another battlefield... and the only way to survive is to surrender.
