Bound By A Deadly Promise
(2026)(The first book in the Secrets After Midnight series)
A novel by Sophia Vale
He was my enemy. My obsession. My only way out.
When journalist Siena Contini uncovered the truth about the Italian underworld, she became the story. Now hunted by the same men she once exposed, she’s forced into the arms of the one man she should never trust—Niko Caruso, the Fixer. Cold. Lethal. Beautiful. A man built to destroy, not to love.
For ten years, Niko cleaned the blood off the world’s dirtiest secrets. But when Siena reappears in his crosshairs, his discipline fractures. Protecting her means breaking every vow he ever made… and resurrecting the monster he swore to bury.
As enemies close in and the Mafia rises again, their only chance at survival lies in surrendering to each other. But passion is its own kind of war—and in the end, love might be the most dangerous vow of all.
''''🌹 Their love is forbidden, impossible… and beautifully inevitable. 🔥🌹
Every touch breaks a vow.
Every kiss betrays a life they both once lived.
Yet somehow, in the war between right and wrong,
They become each other’s only safe place.
And the danger?
It only makes the love burn brighter.
Genre: Romance
