About this listen
I was never meant to be a husband. I was meant to be a weapon.
Marry Adriana Orsini. That was my Irish mafia boss father’s decree—the only way to end the war. But instead of peace, our union ignited a firestorm. Now, we’re on the run. From the men who want me dead. From the enemies who would tear her from my arms. And from the secret growing inside her—the baby that could destroy us both.
She was never meant to be my queen. She’s an Italian mafia princess, raised to hate me. A pawn in a bloody game of power and vengeance. She can fight me all she wants. But she will be mine.
Because the Callahans always get what we want. And I want her. Even if I have to burn her world to the ground to keep her.
Possessive antihero
Arranged marriage turned deadly obsession
Enemies-to-lovers with no escape
Steamy, dark, and dangerous
Fans of Zoe Blake, Sam Mariano, and Lilith Vincent won’t be able to put this book down! One-click now for an explosive dark romance!

Story
He’s a criminal—an abomination. We’re wrong in every way. If only I could’ve convinced my heart. His lips whispered promises of all the stars in the sky. I dreamt of a love that would last forever. We were gorgeously young and desperate for one another. But we're star-crossed. Fate had decided our course. Leaving us to cling to each other as we crumbled to ash. His need became possession. My innocence turned jaded. Our families declared war. All that remained was hate. But Calder was raised by wolves. The rules didn’t apply. I was his until he said otherwise—for better or for worse.

An Irish mobster. A missing friend. Two loyalties, ripping me apart. I had a plan. Get in, get my information, and get out. Easy, right? Turns out, infiltrating the Irish mafia isn't exactly what I thought it would be. I just wanted a soldier. Someone I could flirt with to get me in the door. That's when Lachlan Crow noticed me. Problem was, he wasn't a soldier. No, he was next in line for the throne of the Irish underworld. And he was determined to hate me from the outset.

Of the family, the empire. Everything. I’m learning real fast that being the boss isn’t all it’s cracked up to be. The first order of business was finding a new place to live.

Conceited, unattainable, and downright delicious, renowned Michelin-starred chef Ambrose Casablancas has one passion in life: food. Women are a distraction, and he doesn’t do those. Especially Cal Litvin, his baby sister’s best friend. Her entire existence is a complication; she’s awkward, eccentric, infuriating… And, much to his chagrin, hotter than his kitchen. Ambrose has a lot on his plate: a new restaurant to open, a multi-million-dollar property deal to execute, and a violent stalker to tame. Then Cal shows up at his doorstep.
