She came to kill him. He came to bring her home.
Wren Hollis wakes up in a shipping container on a Providence pier. By midnight she’s on an auction stage, and the most feared man in Rhode Island has paid half a million dollars for her.
She knows his ring. A gold lion over crossed keys. It’s the only thing she remembers from the night her family burned to death twenty-one years ago.
Valentino Castellano married her before dawn, because in his world a wife is the only thing no one can touch. Wren said “I do” with a steak knife strapped to her thigh. She plans to find out which man wore that ring into the fire, and then she plans to make him pay.
But her ruthless husband never lies to her. He has been watching her for months, and he knows exactly who she is. Someone in his own house has been selling her secrets.
And on Christmas Eve, a seat at the most dangerous table in New England will be lost to her forever.
Inside you’ll find:
A forced marriage between a mafia boss and a heroine who wants him dead
An obsessed, protective hero who would burn a city for her (“Touch her and die.”)
A competent, adult heroine who wins with her mind as well as her nerve
A lost mafia heiress, a buried twenty-one-year-old crime, and a traitor at the family table
A found family you’ll want to move in with
Real suspense, a slow burn, steamy scenes, and a guaranteed happily ever after
Scroll up and one-click Valentino tonight. Don’t trust anyone who smiles too much.
