Dark Succession (previously published as The Marriage Contract) (The O’Malleys Book 1)

Why we recommend it

The launch of a sprawling crime-family dynasty, this is mafia romance where a binding contract throws two strong personalities into a marriage neither fully trusts. Expect sharp banter, simmering danger, and the slow build of reluctant loyalty. For readers who love a powerful, protective hero, a heroine who gives as good as she gets, and a found-family saga where the bonds of blood and vows are equally unbreakable.
