They say blood is thicker than water. But to Roman, that just means it sinks.

The moment he put a gun to Angela’s head, Roman knew she was his. His to protect. His to worship. And his to f*ck.

He believes loyalty is proven, respect is earned, and brotherhood is a bond from the heart – not the blood. As the sole heir to the Romano crime dynasty, it’s something his renounced family has never understood.

He won’t allow anyone to take what is his. Not even a beautiful doctor with shadows in her eyes and a darkness in her soul to match his own.

“I want to save you as much as I want to kill you.”

They are words Dr Angela Hawthorne can’t stop thinking about. Especially because they were whispered into her ear by a rebel Mafia prince in the throes of passion.

But she doesn’t need saving. And she doesn’t fear death. She isn’t the high society princess she appears to be.

She isn’t afraid of Roman, nor his reputation. Not even when he kidnaps her and gives her an ultimatum: take the money or take the bullet.

Angela wants neither. But she will take him.
