A forced marriage. A fragile truce. A burning desire. The first time I met Brianna was at the altar. I expected to loathe her. She was the daughter of the crime boss threatening the lives of my family, but there was something in her eyes that told me I wasn't the only victim here. She’s terrified of me, ignorant of the fact I won’t—can’t—lay a hand on her, let alone consummate the marriage.
