Once upon a time, I was the woman
you envied. I had it all. A wonderful family. The perfect fiancé who also
happened to be my best friend. Money and resources. The power and influence
that came with sharing the Trassato name.
One night my fairytale became a
nightmare, and I’ve been living in Hell ever since. A rival family killed my
fiancé. My father succumbed to cancer. In the middle of it all, I bargained
away my future to Konstantin Trincher, a member of the Russian mafia. It seemed
like the perfect solution at the time—my brother’s girlfriend in exchange for
me.
Only things weren’t that simple.
I promised myself to Konstantin and my family promised me to Nico DeAngelo, the
underboss of the Trassato Crime Family.
Konstantin and I form an alliance
to unravel our bargain. The only problem? We didn’t expect to fall for each
other in the process. Now I’m forced to choose between love and loyalty. One
choice will break my heart and the other will break my family.

She embodied every fantasy I had when I was still a naïve farm boy
living the simple life in Nebraska, and not a nasty criminal with a lengthy
list of sins.
Exotic amber eyes that reminded me of sunshine. Long dark hair
with the right amount of wave. Skin the color of golden honey. Curves that made
my hands twitch with the urge to grab a handful. Lips the color of the
forbidden fruit in the Garden of Eden. And like the forbidden fruit led to Adam
and Eve’s ruin, I knew Carmela Trassato would be mine if I let down my guard
around her.
“Mr. Trincher.” The measured burn of her stare scraped down my
torso and back up again as she dragged her finger through the condensation on
her water glass. She wasn’t touching me, yet I felt the swipe of her soft hands
all the same. “Sorry I can’t say the same about you. You look like shit. Did
you attempt to drown yourself in a fifth of vodka last night or is this a
standard look for you?”
Leaning back, I folded my arms across my chest and offered her my
trademarked grin. It started at one corner and leisurely spread to the other.
“Is that any way to treat the love of your life and your future husband?”
She recoiled and her elbow caught the edge of the table. The
cutlery rattled and the water glasses wobbled. She closed her eyes momentarily
and hitched a breath. “Is that why you’re here? Did you finally decide to go
through with this?”
“Not exactly.”
“What do you mean?” She studied me, and beneath the layers of
distrust I saw hope. I saw happiness. I saw excitement. My gut twisted with the
need to be the prince charming for once in my godforsaken life. Unfortunately
for her, circumstances had already cast me as the villain, and I didn’t think
that would change any time in the near future.
After spending years practicing
law and a million other things, Lisa decided to pursue her dream of becoming a
writer and she must confess that inventing characters is so much more fun than
writing contracts and legal briefs. A native of Colorado, she lives with her
husband and three children in Denver.Subscribe to my newsletter for giveaways and deleted scenes: http://eepurl.com/bQ7KQf
