The only thing more inconvenient than being kept in a gilded cage... is being forced to marry a fed to escape it. My name is Bianca Castello. I'm a mafia princess who's being forced to marry a Fed. Apparently, the sexy stranger is desperate enough to make a deal with my brother in exchange for a favor. And favors are hard to come by in this world. But Jack Connelly's an outsider. He hasn't heard the rumors. He doesn't know the things I've done to protect my family or the reason why every single made man refuses to touch me.

In the blink of an eye, Kingston Romano’s entire world has fallen apart. His sister is in the hands of a rival mafia family, and his only hope of getting her back is by making a wager that includes the mysterious Acely Mezzerich. Unfortunately for King, his feelings for Ace only escalate the longer he’s around her, muddling his conscience as well as his arrangement with the enemy. And if has any hope of saving his sister and keeping Ace, he needs to execute it perfectly.

Diece is the right-hand man to the most powerful family in the Italian Mafia. He’s ruthless, brutal, and has been tasked with protecting me after I stuck my neck out for his boss. That doesn’t mean I trust him, though. Against my will, Diece whisks me away under the guise of keeping me safe, but I’m not about to exchange one prison for another. When he finds out what I’ve been through at the hands of my previous captor, he begs me to let my guard down. To let him in. But if I do, he’ll find out the truth, and I can’t let that happen.

I've always been a routine kind of girl. Baking in the morning, going for a run in the evening, in bed by seven since I'm always up at the butt crack of dawn to - you guessed it - bake some more. Just. Like. Clockwork. Then my new neighbor ruins everything. My sexy new neighbor. My sexy new neighbor who happens to visit my bakery every morning with a cocky smirk and a suggestion that I butter his biscuits. Yup.

Sway I'm broken. There. I said it. But the truth is simple. If you don't let anyone get close, then they can't hurt you. And I'm tired of hurting. Then I meet Anthony. I never expected him to slip past my defenses. We were just fooling around, but now that I've fallen, I'm terrified to tell him the truth. And no matter how much he fights me, it won't change reality. He deserves so much more than a broken girl with a thousand cats and a past she refuses to acknowledge. He deserves the real deal. And I can't give it to him.

To be fair, Derrick wasn't technically my boss when we first met. He was just another average Joe who had a habit of turning my stomach into knots. The real problem started when we ran into each other during my interview and he made the mistake of telling me he didn’t date employees. I was already attracted to the tall, dark, and handsome he was sporting, but now it’s like he placed a giant piece of chocolate cake in front of me and told me not to touch it. What else does he expect me to do?

I never wanted to see Nathan again. Ever. One highly educational night with him in bed was all it took to hand over my v-card. Apparently, that was all it took to get him to move across the country without even a backwards glance. Our best friends are getting married and I've been asked to play nice, but I can't promise he'll make it through the weekend in one piece. The only problem is that I'm not sure my heart will survive, either.

I've been asked to compete in an online gaming championship and I can almost taste the victory on my lips. But then my assistant coach arrives. I can't get distracted. Not when I'm so close to achieving my dreams. My eyes are on the prize. But I can't help but wonder...is my focus on the right one?

When Owen Daniels skipped town to become a college football star, he shattered my heart––and my dreams. Eventually, despite being used to the numbness, I worked hard and became an elementary teacher. And I was fine. Until a familiar last name popped up on my classroom roster. Owen has returned. But he’s not alone, and he's made his intentions clear. He's determined to win me back. And my adorable new student who calls him Daddy?

Walking down the aisle toward my arch enemy wasn't exactly what I was picturing when I planned out my dream wedding as a little kid. But as I take in his chiseled jaw and sexy smirk, I remember why I agreed to this sham of a marriage. It's because I'm a glutton for punishment and love a good underdog story, and the more I get to know Liam, the more I can see that he's exactly that. The underdog. I just hope I'm not wrong about him.

Sein Name ist Dex. Er ist riesig, furchterregend und hat etwas Gefährliches an sich, das ich nicht faszinierend finden sollte, doch das tue ich. Er ist auch der Vollstrecker einer rivalisierenden Familie und mein derzeitiger Gefängniswärter. Dex will mich. Ich kann es in seinen Augen sehen. Ich fühle es in seinen unschuldigen Berührungen. Er könnte mich mit Leichtigkeit brechen. Aber das hat er nicht. Stattdessen hat er gedroht, jedem die Hand abzuhacken, der es wagt, es zu versuchen.

Regel Nummer eins: Immer den Kopf unten, aber die Augen offenhalten. Es macht dich unsichtbar, aber nicht ahnungslos. Ich hätte wissen müssen, dass ich beim Kartenzählen erwischt werden würde. Insbesondere in einem Casino, das der Mafia gehört. Aber ich bin verzweifelt. Und in Zeiten der Verzweiflung sind drastische Maßnahmen erforderlich. Jetzt befinde ich mich im Keller des Casinos, mit einem überdimensionalen blauen Fleck auf der Wange und dem Versprechen, dass das Familienoberhaupt, Kingston Romano, mir bald einen Besuch abstatten wird.

Levi McCoy took me under his wing when we were kids. He was my protector. My best friend. My everything. And I was sidekick. We stayed close, even when relationships and life in general tried to tear us apart. Years later, he landed an internship at Montague Enterprises, competing with my childhood nemesis, Conner Daniels, for the final coveted position. That's when things got messy. The two bargained for the official job offer, using me as their pawn. And I fell for it.
