Alex Greco hates her husband.

To keep the peace between her crime lord father and the Greco mafia's boss, she's forced to marry his son, Roman. He's cold and has a reputation for hurting those close to him. There is no wedding night, and the first months of their marriage are awful.

Roman doesn't want a wife, and certainly not an outsider who doesn't know their ways. Unlike the women he's used to, Alex thinks for herself and isn't afraid to tell him no. He plans to prove she isn't a sweet innocent, and he orders his friends to seduce her to show she's not worthy of him.

When her life is endangered, it is up to Roman to save her and the peace pact between their families. By his father's order, he has to make this stubborn woman fall in love with him.

Her husband is not as cold and callous as Alex originally thought. He's a monster to everyone but her, and she never expected to fall in love with him.

She didn't count on finding out he was a liar, either. His father told him to make her fall in love with him, but how far was he willing to go?
