Forbidden Fate: a Dark Mafia Forced Marriage Romance (The Omertà Brotherhood Book 1)

One night. A deal with a devil. A marriage that threatens everything.

We weren’t supposed to meet. I shouldn’t have survived the night.
My fate was sealed—

Until he steps out of the shadows,
shielding me with his body as bullets tear through my student apartment.

A total stranger saves my life.
A dangerous man with dark eyes and hypnotizing tattoos…who somehow knows my name.

Rem Cosenza steals me from the only existence I’ve ever known,
promising the protection I can’t live without.

The catch?
I have to become his wife.

It’s not a request. It’s a condition of survival.
And my only chance to live long enough to find the monster who murdered my family and wants me dead.

Now, I belong to Rem. My husband. Confined to his penthouse. Sleeping in his bed.
I’m the epicenter of a dark, forbidden obsession I can’t begin to understand.

He’s violently protective of me. And I’m becoming addicted to him.
His possessiveness. His strength. His hands on my body.

A penniless music student. The most lethal fixer for Chicago’s most powerful crime family.
We were never supposed to meet…

Or were we?

I thought I knew how cruel fate can be. I was wrong.
Because falling in love with my husband is going to get me killed.
