Why we recommend it

A broken promise raises the stakes in this second arranged-marriage descent into a dangerous crime world. Expect simmering resentment giving way to reluctant longing, a possessive alpha with everything to lose, and a heroine who fights to hold her ground. Dark and high-tension, it's for readers who love mafia vows, slow-thawing chemistry, and a love that survives betrayal. Brace for menace, devotion, and desire that refuses to stay buried.
