The first time I met Micah Delarosa, I ended up in bed with him.
It was supposed to be a one night stand—no names, no strings, no regrets. Just a fleeting escape from my small-town life and my father’s crushing debts.
Except I didn’t just sleep with a stranger. I tangled with the most ruthless Italian mafia boss in the city.
And I was sent to steal from him.
I broke into his vault, thinking I could get away with it. But when Micah found me, instead of punishment, he made me an offer: one year as his wife and he’ll pay my debts and keep me safe from my abusive ex.
The problem is, my ex isn’t just demented. He’s the man my father owes the debt and he’s made it clear he’ll stop at nothing to take me back.
Micah promises to protect me, but sometimes, in the mafia world, where promises are written in blood and bullets, fairytales can turn into nightmares.
When my enemy comes knocking at my door, our lives become a game of survival.
And love may not be enough to save me.
