The Blood Vow

She was bred to be a sacrifice. She chose to be a guillotine.

Ravia Vaskara is the daughter of a rotting empire. When her father, the desperate Patriarch of the Alta-Rava syndicate, loses the war for the city's underworld, he sells Ravia to buy a temporary truce. Her mission is simple: marry the enemy, map his impenetrable fortress, and wait for the order to cut his throat.

Ciro Vancura is the monster who brought her family to its knees. A street-forged usurper who traded his brass knuckles for bespoke suits, Ciro intends to drag the mafia out of the bloody gutters and into the pristine boardrooms of global commerce. He expects his new bride to be a fragile, terrified pawn he can use to legitimize his new empire.

He is entirely unprepared for the viper he just let into his bed.

Isolated in the Zenith estate, the psychological warfare between them quickly combusts into a dark, visceral obsession. Ciro doesn't just want her submission; he worships her lethal, calculating intellect. For the first time, Ravia isn't fighting a brute-she is fighting her exact equal.

But when her father issues a devastating ultimatum, demanding Ciro's head or the destruction of everything they have built, Ravia must make a terrifying choice. She can honor her bloodline and walk away a queen... or she can pull the trigger on her own past and reign alongside the devil she was sent to destroy.

The Blood Vow is a dark, high-stakes mafia romance featuring a morally gray mastermind, a lethal heroine, and an enemies-to-lovers psychological war that will leave you breathless.
