Married With Malice

The wedding was supposed to be my sister’s fate.
An alliance between two legendary mafia families just like in the old days.
But when my sweet, beautiful older sister fell for a civilian and eloped in spite of our father’s edict, mafia mayhem ensued.
Now, to save my sister and her clueless new husband from a date with a Cosa Nostra executioner, I’m taking her place.
No doubt the alternative bride would have been preferred by everyone. Especially the groom.
Luca Connelly. Master manipulator. Crown prince of his uncle’s blood-splattered empire.
And my nemesis since high school.
Luca, with his charm and muscle and sinful looks, believes the world is his for the taking.
He might be right.
Luca is good at fooling everyone else. However, he’ll never fool me.
He’s still the same callous, arrogant villain who used to delight in my torment.
Not that I’m innocent. The scorching hostility between us is completely mutual.
Too bad there are a few things I didn’t count on.
Like the way I can’t get enough of his touch.
Or how I keep coming back for more no matter how volatile we are together.
I know this is no recipe for a happy marriage.
But the closer I get to Luca, the more the lines get blurred.
My mistake was to assume that I was in full control.
I was so sure my heart was immune to falling for my husband.
Only now that it’s too late am I learning how very wrong I was…
