(Dark Mafia Romance / Bratva Romance — by Cora J. Riley)
He was meant to protect her.
He became obsessed instead.
When Aria Moretti is pulled from her ordinary life into a world ruled by blood and vengeance, she expects cruelty. What she doesn’t expect is him—Cassian Tremont, the Bratva’s most feared enforcer. Silent. Controlled. Deadly. And the only man her late uncle trusted to keep her alive.
Aria wants freedom.
Cassian wants control.
Neither of them expects the fire that ignites between them.
As enemies close in and Aria’s forgotten family legacy resurfaces, Cassian’s protective obsession takes on a life of its own. He was supposed to guard her from danger, not drag her into his bed. Not claim her. Not crave her. Not fall for her.
But Aria is no helpless captive.
She matches Cassian’s darkness with fire of her own, pushing him, teasing him, breaking through every wall he’s built.
When a traitor inside the Bratva threatens everything, Aria becomes the key to a violent power struggle—and the woman Cassian would burn the world to protect.
Blood is loyalty.
Desire is destruction.
Love is the one thing neither of them can survive.
Genre: Mystery
