Marrying Leone Agosti was supposed to seal an alliance, but for Angelina Novikov, it feels more like a prison sentence. Trapped in a deadly game of power and deceit, she’s caught between the shadows of her family’s sins and the fiery obsession of her ruthless husband. Leone may control her world, but he’ll never control her heart—or so she tells herself.
Leone Agosti didn’t choose Angelina because she was perfect; he chose her because she was dangerous. Her fire ignites something within him he can’t afford to feel, and her defiance pushes him closer to the edge. But as enemies from both their pasts close in, and betrayal brews within their walls, Leone realizes that loving Angelina could be the one risk even he isn’t prepared for.
In a world where loyalty is a lie and love is a weapon, Angelina and Leone must decide if they’ll burn together—or destroy each other.
