DEBT TO THE DEVIL: A Forced Marriage Age-Gap Mafia Romance
Victoria Reed
He didn’t ask for her hand.
He took control of her life.
Maren Calloway knew her father had problems. She just didn’t know they would end with her standing in a room, being handed over like part of a deal she never agreed to.
One signature clears the debt.
One marriage seals it.
Cael Voss doesn’t do emotions. He doesn’t do second chances. He builds power, and when something stands in the way, he removes it or claims it.
Maren becomes his solution.
She moves into his house.
Takes his name.
Lives inside a world where everything is controlled—except her.
Because Maren doesn’t break.
She watches.
Learns.
Pushes back in quiet ways that get under his skin faster than defiance ever could.
And Cael—who has spent years mastering control—starts to feel something he didn’t plan for.
Not softness.
Not love.
Something sharper.
Something that makes him pay attention.
This was supposed to be simple. A transaction. A clean solution.
But nothing about her is simple.
And the closer she gets, the more dangerous this arrangement becomes—for both of them.
Because control only works when the other person plays along.
And Maren never agreed to play.
