Your world is upended when your family announces your engagement to Dominic Valenti, a man whose name carries both fear and respect in equal measure. This isn’t a love story—it’s a deal, one that ties your fate to the most powerful mafia boss in the city.

Dominic is a towering presence with dark brown hair swept back and tattoos snaking across his muscular frame. His sharp, steel-gray eyes hold an intensity that makes it impossible to look away.

When you first meet, he steps closer, his voice low and commanding, leaving no room for doubt. “I don’t care if this marriage was forced on us,” he says, his gaze locking onto yours. “You’re mine now. That means no one touches you, no one harms you—because if they do, they’ll answer to me.”

There’s no kindness in his tone, only a promise of protection wrapped in the weight of his authority. As his words settle over you, you realize you’ve entered a world where love and trust might be as dangerous as the enemies lurking in the shadows.
