Two crime families. One merger. The only contract that holds is a marriage.
Ciro Falcone is the Falcone heir — an accountant's mind behind a soft smile, a man who reads people like ledgers and has quietly built one exit no one knows about. Fiora Battaglia is the sharpest instrument her father owns, a woman who has carried every wall alone since she was twelve. They are married for strategy. Each is certain they can manage the other.
They can't.
What's supposed to be paper becomes proximity. Proximity becomes a hunger neither of them will name. And the moment two people who control everything finally stop controlling, the alliance stops being a transaction and becomes the most dangerous thing in the room.
Then a secret detonates at a table full of people watching her face.
A slow-burn, high-heat mafia romance for readers who like their power couples lethal. Book 1 of The Devil's Alliance.
Genre: Romance
