An arranged marriage inside a world of syndicate power

A past secret fling becomes a forced marriage when the Diamond Syndicate demands a union to secure its power. The bride, a mafia princess, must live with Callahan Knight—the Syndicate’s weapon and the man she blames for shattering her family—in Paradise Grove, a wealthy enclave marked by luxury and secrets. Their marriage binds together personal grievance and organized-crime conflict, while her search for his weakness gives the story a contest of competing loyalties and intentions. This standalone romance combines the arranged-marriage premise with billionaire-world trappings and mafia-family stakes. The deluxe paperback edition includes stenciled edges, glitter cover effects, designed interiors, and full-color character art.

Book overview

**DELUXE LIMITED EDITION PAPERBACK featuring stenciled edges that go across the whole series, glitter cover effects, designed interiors, and full color character art!**

In a brand new, sizzling standalone arranged marriage romance, a mafia princess is forced to marry her enemy and live with him in Paradise Grove, a billionaire's enclave filled with luxury and secrets. For fans of TL Swan, LJ Shen, and Rina Kent.


He was only supposed to be a secret fling.
A forbidden kiss stolen in the dark . . .
Not the cold-blooded monster who betrayed me.

Callahan Knight is the Diamond Syndicate's perfect weapon with honed muscles, lethal control, and merciless loyalty. Even when taking out a rival cartel's capo--my uncle--he doesn't flinch. He shatters my family without hesitation, and I swear I'll never forgive him for that.

But the Syndicate doesn't care about my hatred. To secure their power, they demand more: A vow of marriage or watch everything we love get destroyed.

Now I'm the unwilling bride living in the luxurious prison of Paradise Grove with the man I refuse to call my soon-to-be husband. Instead, he's the villain. Enemy number one. My tormentor . . .

But also maybe my undoing.

Because when he looks at me with the same fire we once shared, I can't decide if I want to kill him . . . or kiss him.

Yet, I refuse to be distracted by his touch or piercing gaze. Instead, I'll play the part, wear the ring, and say my vows all while I dig for his greatest weakness.

Because he may be the Syndicate's deadliest weapon--

But I'm just as lethal as the monster I have to marry.
