Saving a Merciless Heart
(2025)(The second book in the Dark Hearts of Stone series)
A novel by Liz Gavin
Tommy
They call me The Calculator.
Not because I'm good with numbers.
Because I calculate exactly how much pain it takes to break a man.
I've spilled blood for the Boyle family since I was sixteen, and I've never questioned an order.
Until now.
My brother wants me to marry Maeve O'Connor to seal an alliance with the Irish.
One problem—she's the cousin of the man I killed two years ago.
Another problem—I want her more than my next breath.
Maeve
I've been plotting behind my father’s back for months.
Planning heists, hacking systems, anything to find my little sister, everyone thinks is dead.
But when I discover I'm being sold to Tommy Boyle—the monster who murdered my cousin—I realize I've been playing a child's game.
Now I'm trapped in the Boyle compound, chained to his bed.
They think this marriage will tame me.
They're about to learn how wrong they are.
The Truth
Our families aren't just potential allies—we're all pawns in someone else's game.
The information I've been selling wasn't reaching gangs.
It was feeding a trafficking ring that's been using our territories as hunting grounds.
My sister is being held as collateral.
And the only way to save her is to trust the man I swore to destroy.
Tommy might be a killer.
But he's about to become my salvation.
Saving a Merciless Heart is a full-length standalone dark mafia romance with forced proximity, enemies to lovers, arranged marriage, and guaranteed HEA. Contains mature themes and steamy scenes.
Genre: Romance
