SHADOW WEDDING

Instead, it began one.

As the daughter of one of New York's most influential political families, Isabella has spent her entire life as a bargaining chip. Her arranged marriage to Leonardo Moretti—the heir to the city's most powerful mafia empire—is supposed to unite two worlds built on wealth, influence, and violence.

Hours after saying "I do," Leonardo is murdered.

The killer disappears without a trace.

The bride becomes the prime suspect.

To survive, Isabella has only one option.

Trust Nico Moretti.

Leonardo's younger brother.

The man who has hated the marriage from the beginning.

The man who should hate her even more now.

Together they uncover evidence that Leonardo's murder was only the opening move in a carefully planned conspiracy designed to erase the entire Moretti bloodline and seize control of every criminal empire on the East Coast.

As assassins close in and old alliances crumble, Isabella discovers that Nico has secretly protected her for years from enemies she never knew existed.

Their partnership slowly transforms into something neither of them expected.

A love born from grief.

A love forbidden by family, loyalty, and guilt.

But someone inside the Moretti family is orchestrating every betrayal.

Every death.

Every lie.

When the final gathering of the Five Families turns into an all-out massacre, Isabella and Nico must decide whether to save the empire... or destroy it forever.

Some weddings celebrate the beginning of a family.

Others become the funeral of one.
