Bound by Deception: An Enemies to Lovers Arranged Marriage Italian Mafia Romance (Lords of the Commission: New York, Book 2)

About this book

Ambition drives Matt to claim his rightful place as a Don within the New York Mafia’s Commission, but the path to power requires a wife. While he has long desired a specific woman, he discovers a complication that threatens his plans: she is already betrothed to his own brother. Refusing to let her go, Matt orchestrates a ruthless takeover, forcing her into an arranged marriage that pits them against one another in a volatile game of power and desire. This high-stakes Italian Mafia romance masterfully blends the enemies-to-lovers and forced marriage tropes into an intense, character-driven narrative. As the tension between Matt and his defiant bride escalates, their chemistry ignites, proving that their union is far more than a political maneuver. Francesca is no damsel in distress; she is a powerful force who challenges Matt at every turn, creating a dynamic that is as intellectually stimulating as it is physically electric. *Bound by Deception* is the first installment of a gripping duet, delivering an emotional roller coaster filled with dark suspense, unpredictable twists, and off-the-charts spice. Be prepared for a soul-crushing cliffhanger that leaves the fate of this complicated couple hanging in the balance, demanding an immediate jump into the conclusion, *Torn by Honor*.
