Merikan

Blood & Marriage Merikan

--- He was not Prince Charming. He was the dragon to consume me. --- As the daughter of a mafia boss, I knew that keeping my head down meant staying alive. So when my father arranged my marriage to a Sicilian mafioso, I smiled and nodded, hoping for a kind man. But then my future husband's cousin, Santo Villani, appears to pick me up for the wedding, and my life turns upside down, shattered by a kiss that shouldn't have happened. Arrogant, cocky, and yet irresistibly charming, he's exactly the kind of man I shouldn't be reaching out for. A dangerous mafioso who isn't afraid to taste forbidden fruit. I am torn between duty and passion, but my wedding is set in stone, so no matter which one of them wins, I will fall on their battlefield.
