USA Today bestselling author Trilina Pucci weaves red-hot banter and plenty of spice into an enemies-to-lovers mafia romance filled with false identities, family secrets, and one not-so-forced marriage.
Francesca DeLuca, daughter of the infamous "Butcher of Bergamo," would sooner jump into a river wearing cement shoes than go on another blind date. She only agrees so her annoying sisters will stop pestering her. But when the night goes from bad to worse, she finds herself tripping over her own stilettos--and into the arms of a sexy stranger.
John Dolan, the self-assured owner of several restaurants in Boston, smells like heaven and looks like a god. After fate throws him and Francesca together not once but twice, he's determined to make her his. But the seductive Irishman isn't exactly what he seems.
Like moths to a flame, they spend one electrifying weekend together. But when Francesca's father disappears, John's lies start to crack. Shocking secrets trigger an explosive confrontation, setting their powerful families at odds. And when the would-be lovers are forced to exchange vows, their marriage tests the limits of old family vendettas--and their faltering self-control.
