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.

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.
