"This isn't a marriage. It's a contract signed in blood."
Dangerous and feared.
Those words describe my future husband. Who just so happens to also be my ex-boyfriend.
It’s complicated. Two years ago, he broke my heart when he left me to do his father’s bidding. After months of crying, I finally accepted he was gone and wasn’t going to look back. That maybe he’d never loved me at all. I never wanted to see Luca again.
Now a cruel twist of fate has signed me over to him in a heartless deal. I’m his. He thinks he did me a favor, but I feel like I’ve been given a death sentence. He doesn't want to get married because he still loves me. No, he did it for money. More power.
I’m going to be a mafia wife. And there’s only one way out of it. Death.
But as it turns out, someone else doesn’t want me to marry the ruthless Luca Bianchi. And if he has his way, I’ll see that early grave.
Haven is thrown into the world of the mafia when her ex-boyfriend Luca comes back to town, demanding her hand in marriage. But with how he left things, of course she wants nothing to do with him- or his lifestyle. But she has been signed over to him, the contract in blood. There is no way Luca still loves her after two years of being an ocean apart. He had to have done it solely for money and power- the way all mafia marriages work. And the only way out of being a mafia wife, is death. But the Bianchi's have tons of enemies, and Haven isn't the only one who doesn't want the marriage to happen...
I love Shantel Tessier's work, and this was no different. If you love mafia romances or arranged marriage romances then you definitely need to grab up this book!
Luca is ruthless, being the of son to one of the two mafia families. He does what he needs to, not only to survive but to get the job done. And one of the rules for being part of the mafia, is keeping to a code of Silence. If you spill anything, death will be a mercy upon you. But apart from being part of the Mafia, he has a soft spot for Haven.
Haven's family may not be as wealthy as the mafia who run the city, but they are well off. She has never wanted for anything. Especially having Luca as her boyfriend. She's not stupid, she knows he's part of the mafia family. She has an idea what goes on. But she loved him anyway. Until he left her. So when he shows up two years later, you can imagine her surprise... And why she is so angry with him. She challenges Luca every chance she gets. She may not have any say in the marriage, but she will make it as difficult as she can.
I loved Luca and Haven's relationship. The emotions and angst. The will they, or won't they. And the danger and suspense. Once I started reading this book I couldn't put it down, reading it every spare moment I could! If you haven't grabbed your copy yet, I definitely recommend it! I can't wait to read the dark Kings books! 5 angsty ⭐ out of 5 ⭐.
