Bianca Marcose has spent her life being overlooked—quiet, obedient, and invisible beside her beautiful, ruthless sister, Rose. She never expected much from the world… certainly not love. Definitely not power. And absolutely not the attention of the most dangerous man in their father’s empire. When their ailing mob-boss father announces an arranged marriage to secure their family’s future, everyone assumes Rose will be the one to marry James Endrizzi—the feared, magnetic heir to a brutal dynasty. James is a man who owns rooms with a glance, commands loyalty with a whisper, and destroys enemies without hesitation. But James has a secret. He never wanted Rose. He wanted the sister he was never allowed to touch—Bianca. Forced into a marriage with the wrong Marcose bride, James tries to bury his obsession beneath coldness and cruelty. But when Bianca’s quiet strength begins to challenge him—and her innocence begins to unravel his control—his restraint breaks. And his desire turns deadly. Now Bianca is caught between a sister who hates her, a father who uses her, and a man who loves her in ways he shouldn’t. A man who will burn empires to claim her. A man who was never meant to have her… yet can’t let her go. A dark, addictive mafia romance about forbidden obsession, twisted loyalty, and a love powerful enough to start a war. Perfect for fans of morally gray antiheroes, sister rivalry, arranged marriages, and “he shouldn’t want her—but he does” tension.
