Hot. Protective. All in. This mafia prince doesn’t just fall—he spirals, hard and fast, and baby, he’s not getting up.

I’ve spent my whole life feeling invisible.

The forgotten daughter. The curvy girl no one ever chose. The extra piece that never quite fit.

For years, I’ve been building my escape plan.

One more year of law school, and I’d finally be free. One step away from proving I’m more than the leftover of a marriage everyone wants to forget.

Then everything shatters.

My stepmother drops the bomb: an arranged marriage to save my mother’s sinking company. And not to some trust fund puppet, but to a criminal.

Dante Caruso.

The name alone makes the air rattle. A man fifteen years my senior, with blood on his hands and power in his veins. He’s the type of man I’ve spent years learning to prosecute.

Tattooed. Lethal. Absolute. He moves like a king, and protects like a man who never loses.

I should run. I should fight.

But he tells me I’m safe. That he’ll never cage me. That the choice to stand beside him is mine.

Only—choosing him means burning my future to ash. Choosing him means stepping into his world, where justice wears a different face and family isn’t inherited, but sworn in blood. It means surrendering to a man who could destroy everything I thought I wanted.

And the scariest part?

I think I want it.

I think I want him.
