From USA Today & Wall Street Journal-bestselling author Michelle Heard comes a standalone mafia romance.

At the lowest point in my life, I walk into the busiest club, hoping to get a job. Somehow, I end up on stage, being told to strip, and before I can even decide if I'm desperate enough, a terrifying man orders me to leave.

I do my best to ignore my fear as I follow him to his office, not knowing it's about to cost me everything.

Turns out I'm more desperate than I thought, and I swallow my pride and beg. But Adriano Rizzo doesn't offer me employment.

Nope, he makes me a deal that's hard to refuse. I tell myself I can handle whatever he demands of me. Boy, am I wrong.

Hidden in the fine print, I didn't bother to read, is a clause I never saw coming. Marry him. Or I walk away with nothing and end up back on the streets.

While I'm still trying to decide, he changes the rules, and before I know it, I'm saying my vows to a man I barely know. To make matters worse, just as we leave the church, he pulls out a gun and empties it into some poor soul. Right in front of me!

That's when I learn the truth…

Adriano Rizzo isn't just some heartless, filthy-rich club owner.

He's a boss in the Cosa Nostra, and I've just married into a world that's violent, ruthless, and deadly.
