The Unchosen Husband A High-Heat MM Mafia Romance

He was supposed to marry the golden boy.

Instead, he married the man nobody had ever chosen.

Alessio Ferrante has spent his entire life preparing to inherit his family's criminal empire. His arranged marriage to Denis Moroz is supposed to secure an alliance between two of Vesper Bay's most powerful families.

Then Denis disappears with a stolen register capable of destroying them both.

With the wedding days away and the alliance collapsing, an unexpected replacement steps forward.

Viktor Moroz.

Forty-one. Scarred. Dangerous. The ruthless enforcer who has spent his entire life cleaning up his family's mistakes.

And the man Alessio has secretly wanted for months.

Viktor knows exactly why he's being offered as the replacement husband. He's useful. Dependable. Expendable.

He's been all three his entire life.

He doesn't expect tenderness from his beautiful, sharp-tongued new husband. He certainly doesn't expect Alessio to want him.

But Alessio has other ideas.

Behind closed doors, their marriage becomes something neither man expected. Every stolen kiss, every intimate confession, and every night spent together threatens the walls Viktor has spent forty-one years building.

For the first time in his life, someone wants him for something other than what he can provide.

But when betrayal, blackmail, and murder threaten their families, Viktor faces an impossible choice.

Sacrifice himself to protect the man he loves.

Or finally believe that he's worth saving, too.

A scorching MM mafia romance featuring an arranged marriage, a scarred older hero, intense possessiveness, emotional vulnerability, explicit intimacy, and a guaranteed happily-ever-after.
