He killed her brother. Now he wants her as his bride.

When 19-year-old Aria Delaney walks into her family’s lavish estate, she finds nothing but bloodshed. Her brother—head of the Irish mafia—is dead. And the man holding the smoking gun? Luca Moretti. Italy’s most feared underworld king.

As a brutal message to the world, Luca claims Aria as payment for her brother’s debts. But he doesn’t want her money.

He wants her obedience. Her purity. Her name on his ring.

Trapped in his world of violence and secrets, Aria must survive the cold-hearted monster who now owns her. But there’s one problem: the deeper she falls into his darkness... the more she starts to crave it.

She hates him. He owns her. But in the mafia world, love is just another form of war.
