As punishment for his brother, Dante, escaping the Council’s rage after breaking their Code, Marco Argento has to marry Ice Princess Bianca Conti, daughter of the man he believes murdered his mother.
But Bianca isn’t just a mafia princess—she’s a capo-in-training, and she has her own plans to use this marriage to her family’s benefit. Control and indulgence clash in an all-out war that comes to a head when Bianca’s father hires an assassin to take Marco out, and Bianca realizes she can’t let him die.
In the aftermath, they have to confront old prejudices and their own lies to discover who was really behind the attempt—and if, behind all the masks, there might be something worth fighting for in a marriage they never chose.
