Why we recommend it
A deal with a dangerous man anchors this Irish mafia romance. The marriage-of-convenience premise binds a heroine to a ruthless lord, with cold calculation slowly thawing into something far more volatile. Expect possessive devotion, charged power struggles and the menace of a crime world that gives no quarter. For readers who love commanding mafia heroes, strategic unions that turn real and slow-burning enemies-to-lovers heat, this Astoria Royals entry delivers tension and fire.
