SOFIYA
I’ve spent years hidden away to protect my father from the shame of having a defective daughter. The head of the Bratva can’t be associated with weakness—and to him, that’s all I am.
That is, until a marriage alliance gives him the opportunity to finally be rid of me.
As I head down the aisle towards my mysterious husband, I hope I’m moving towards love and freedom. But Matteo makes it clear he wants nothing to do with me.
I wish I could return his coldness, but the dangerous Don sets my body ablaze whenever he’s near.
MATTEO
My life has been defined by betrayal.
A family traitor murdered my parents, and I’ve carried their blood on my hands all these years. I learned long ago not to open my heart.
As head of the Five Families, I’ve always controlled my city, but with enemies rising up on all sides, a marriage alliance is my only way forward. Except, my bride is not what I expected—and now she’s consuming my every thought.
But when my trust is shattered again, I’ll go to any means necessary to protect the Family.
His Tesoro is a spicy, dual first-person POV Mafia Romance with an age gap, arranged marriage, disabled heroine, and jealous/possessive hero. This book is a standalone that ends in a HEA. See Author’s Note at the beginning of the book for full content warnings.
