Siena Moretti has buried her husband—
and she isn’t grieving.
Her marriage to Franco Moretti was a gilded cage, lined with bruises, secrets, and silent screams. His death should free her. Instead, it hands her straight into the claws of an even more dangerous man.
Luca Vitale.
Heir to the city’s most feared mafia empire.
Cold-eyed, controlled, impossible to read.
And thanks to a deal struck over her husband’s coffin… her new fiancé.
Their marriage is a political weapon.
A way to merge two criminal dynasties.
A leash meant to control her.
But Siena has never been easier to underestimate.
Behind her widow’s veil is a woman forged in violence—patient, calculating, and armed with secrets that could topple both families. And when Luca starts discovering the truth she hides behind her calm smile, his obsession becomes a threat far sharper than his reputation.
He thinks she’s hiding something.
He thinks he can break her.
He thinks he can resist her.
He'''s wrong.
Because the most dangerous person in the Vitale empire isn’t Luca at all.
It’s the woman he’s about to marry.
A deadly marriage of convenience.
A cold, possessive antihero.
A quiet heroine with a monster of her own.
In this world, vows aren’t promises.
They’re weapons.
Genre: Romance
