Being sold to a silver fox mafia boss is not how I pictured my Christmas.
My father didn’t just gamble away his money.
He gambled me away, too.
One moment I’m planning other people’s perfect holidays...
And the next, my front door splinters, and I’m told I’m collateral.
I’m hauled into the dark, dressed up like a gift,
and placed beneath crystal chandeliers
while monsters in designer suits sip champagne and bid on a living woman.
The Winter Solstice Auction calls it business.
I call it a funeral for my freedom.
Then Dante Volkov steps in.
Cold eyes, tailored perfection, and the kind of power that doesn’t need to raise its voice.
He doesn’t celebrate December, he rules it.
One number leaves his mouth, and the room goes silent.
He doesn'''t win me.
He claims me.
I should run. I should hate him.
Instead, I’m starting to learn the truth about men like Dante Volkov.
They don’t let you go.
They don’t forgive debts.
And when they decide you’re theirs,
they don’t just buy your body…
They start a war to keep your soul.
**Auctioned At Christmas is a steamy, Forced-proximity, snow-drenched age-gap mafia romance packed with danger and obsession. No cheating, no cliffhangers, just a scorching HEA.
Genre: Mystery
