by A P von K'OryBook Overview
MY FATHER CHOSE HER. I REFUSED HER FOR NINE YEARS. THEN I MET HER. NOW NO ONE ELSE GETS A VOTE.I've inherited everything — the empire, the enemies, and the one arrangement I swore I'd never honour. For nine years I refused the girl my father selected, the Calabrian daughter being educated in England into someone's perfect wife. Then my father dies, the will is read, and the refusal stops being theoretical.
She arrives in Seattle with three terms she negotiated herself and no intention of being managed. She knows what she is. She knows what this is.

A dark mafia romance set in the world of the 'Ndrangheta — where alliances are written in bloodlines, power is inherited but loyalty is earned, and the most dangerous thing in any room is a woman who already knows exactly what she wants.
He just didn't expect to be it.
