Book Description
Victoria Sinclair spent her life restoring fragile pieces of history—ancient maps, damaged books, forgotten stories. Quiet, careful, and invisible, she believed she had escaped the shadow of the father she never knew.
Then Marcus Delaney dies.
Within hours, armed men arrive at her studio with devastating news: Victoria is the sole heir to one of the most powerful mafia empires in the country. Overnight, her peaceful life is destroyed, replaced by armored SUVs, fortified safe houses, and enemies who would kill to control the Delaney fortune.
But the inheritance comes with one terrifying condition.
Damian.
Cold. Scarred. Ruthlessly loyal. Marcus Delaney’s most feared enforcer is now Victoria’s assigned protector—and the only thing standing between her and a violent death. Bound together by a brutal legal arrangement, Victoria is forced into a world of blood-soaked loyalty, betrayal, and deadly power struggles where trust can get you killed.
As enemies close in from every side, the line between protection and possession begins to blur. And the man assigned to keep her alive may become the greatest danger to her heart.
In the world of the mafia, there are only two choices:
Rule… or die.
