He was meant to kill me. Now he’s my husband.
I was his brother’s widow.
A grieving wife. A hunted mother.
Now I’m his debt to pay.
His bride in a marriage built on lies.
One child.
Two enemies.
And a man who terrifies me more than the world chasing us.
Mateo is cold steel and silence.
But in Lev’s eyes, he becomes something else.
A protector.
A shadow I hate needing.
Each day, I fall further into the fire.
Each touch breaks rules I swore never to bend.
But nothing compares to the secret he carries—
the one that could burn my soul alive.
He was sent to kill me.
Years ago, he almost did.
And yet, here I stand…
wearing his ring, lying beside him, breathing the same poisoned air.
Can I trust the man who spared me…
or will he finish what he started?
Because in the mafia, nothing is forgiven.
And love is the most dangerous debt of all.
