“I’ll make an example of any of his men who even thinks of breathing the same air you do.”
“I would have razed the earth to clean a path to you and make you mine.”
🖤 First person dual POV
🖤 First in a series that can be read as stand alone
🖤 Mafia billionaire / Hacker on the run
🖤 Forced marriage (of convenience)
🖤 Controlling MMC / Strong-willed FMC
🖤 Possessive/ protective MMC
🖤 ‘Touch her and you 💀’ vibes
🖤 Spicey 🔥 — dom/sub, pleasure/pain, explicitly taking away consent — fits the genre, not my cup of ☕️
🖤 He falls first, HARD
🖤 Well established secondary characters: Aleksandr (Book 2), Nikko (Book 3), Viktor (Book 4), Lev (Book 5), Polina, Ekaterina.
🖤 Epilogue
⚠️ Violence (explicit), death (explicit), kidnapping (explicit), pregnancy (explicit), torture (explicit), toxic relationship.

“I couldn’t think of anyone more unlike me in this moment — him, muscled and strong and powerful. Me, damn near scrawny. Him, rich and powerful and fearless. Me, running for my life without a penny to my name. Him, a leader in the Russian mafia. Me…a nobody.”
I enjoyed this forced marriage, mafia romantic suspense novel. I read it in two sittings! I will definitely be reading more by Jane Henry.
