Emma
I’m the good sister. The rule-follower in a world tainted by violence and corruption.
Raised amidst the stench of blood, I strive to shield myself from its influence. I'm going to become a doctor to make a difference for people. It’s my way out from my family’s dark legacy.
But fate has a twisted sense of humor. My path collides with Giacomo, a ruthless Sicilian mafia don. Bound by circumstances beyond our control, we're forced into a marriage that must produce an heir within six months to prevent an all-out war.
Yet there is a glimmer of hope. Giacomo and I share a common goal: to defy orders and end this union as swiftly as possible. We both agree there will be no heir, no consummation of this marriage.
There’s just one little problem. I can’t deny—even to myself—the strong pull I feel toward my new husband.
Giacomo
I’m a fighter, filled with anger and bitterness. At long last I have control my family’s empire here in the shadows of Sicily's treacherous underworld, and I mean to take back everything that was stolen from us.
Except I’m now burdened by the weight of an unwanted marriage, forced upon me by the cruel hands of tradition. I have no time or patience for a young bride, even if she does challenge me in ways I never expected. Tenderness has no place in my world.
An heir? It's laughable.
But while I outwardly resist the idea, a deep dark part of me longs to take what is mine . . . .
