A broken mafia princess with dangerous secrets.

A relentless protector willing to risk everything.

And a vengeful kingpin who will stop at nothing to destroy them.

Alexia

To the outside world, I was the epitome of perfection—a privileged mafia princess with everything at her feet. But in our world, fairy tales are illusions, and monsters wear tailored suits. On my wedding night, I discovered the truth about Igor, the Bratva kingpin I was forced to marry.

For years, I've endured his cruelty, his control, and his unspeakable violence. But now, I hold a secret so dangerous it could topple his empire—and he'll stop at nothing to silence me. Even my daughter isn't safe. My only hope is the one man I swore I'd never trust again: Dave Boyle.

He's deadly, relentless, and my last chance at freedom. Together, we've entered a deadly game where every move risks everything. I vowed to guard my heart, but in his arms, I'm losing control.

Dave

I've built my life on loyalty—to my family, the Irish Brotherhood, and the Syndicate. But Alexia has always been my greatest weakness. When she married Igor, it broke me. I buried my feelings and forged a steel wall around my heart.

Until the day she called.

Now, she's under my protection, and I'll go to war with the most dangerous man I've ever faced to keep her safe. But saving Alexia isn't enough. I want her—every part of her. I'll fight for her heart with the same fire I'll use to destroy anyone who threatens her.

In this world of betrayal, secrets, and ruthless power, love is a dangerous game. And Igor won't rest until he tears us apart.
