Lorelai Russo has been engaged three times. Every man mysteriously died before they could reach the altar. Now branded a curse, the curvy mafia princess has become a burden her father is desperate to unload.
His solution? Drag her to a secret high-stakes card game and offer a fortune to any man willing to marry her.
No one wants the cursed bride.
Until Salvatore Smith claims her.
Feared, ruthless, and carrying the blood of the powerful Greco mafia, Salvatore is a man no one dares cross. Lorelai expects a cruel husband and a marriage worse than death.
Instead, she discovers a dangerously possessive man who treats her like a queen. A man who wants every inch of her luscious curves—and has no intention of ever letting her go.
But Salvatore is hiding a deadly secret. Lorelai was never cursed. Her dead fiancés were no coincidence. And Salvatore has been playing a dangerous game of his own.
As the secret son of the Greco boss, he has one goal—destroy the entire bloodline. But somewhere between revenge and claiming his beautiful bride, Salvatore makes one fatal mistake.
He falls in love with the woman he was never supposed to lose.
And when his enemies come for Lorelai, they'll discover just how far a ruthless mafia man will go to protect what's his.
Excerpt:
Salvatore’s mother had already told him she’d explained his parentage to Lorelai, so when she arrived at his office that night, he was prepared. He made her hot chocolate, and she stepped inside, dressed in another pair of Halloween pajamas, and it did not detract from her beauty.
“Hey, beautiful,” he said.
Whenever he complimented her, this always seemed to make her pause. After a brief second, she moved a little closer.
“Your mother told me,” Lorelai said.
“I know.”
“Are you … angry? Are you hoping Marco takes you as his son?”
Salvatore laughed. “Fuck, no. He can give everything to his son.” It would make it a lot easier to destroy if his half-brother was in control, but they knew that was never going to happen. His half-brother, Elijah, was a drunk as well as an addict. There was no hope for him.
“I’m a little shocked,” she said, moving to sit on the sofa beside him.
“Are you hoping to be queen of the mafia?”
She shook her head. “No, absolutely not.” She reached out and put her hands on his knee. “I like my life here, with you. I do. But I don’t understand why you would pick me when you have so many other choices.”
“You think people are going to want the bastard son of a whore?” He hated referring to his mother like that, but it was how people saw him, and there was nothing he could do to change that. It was how people thought.
“I’m sorry.”
He put his hand on hers. “It’s not your place to be sorry. You didn’t do any of this.”
“Why?” she asked.
“Because I was not going to allow your father to sell you for anything. You’re too good for that.”
“I’m still a Russo, and I know my parents haven’t been kind to your mother.”
Salvatore chuckled. “Leonardo was pissed that my mother turned him down. After everything that happened, she wanted out. So, that is what she did. She got out, and we were able to make a life for ourselves, but I knew the truth, and I worked my ass off to get us this.”
“She told me what he did, taking away her ability to have children. I’m so sorry.”
He stroked her cheek. “She is hoping we give her grandchildren.”
He saw her sudden jolt.
“Grandchildren?”
“Yes. Do you want to have kids someday?” he asked.
“I mean, of course, but I don’t know how that will be possible.”
This made him smile. “It is in the usual way.”
“But that is also going to require us to … well … have sex, right? We don’t have sex. You don’t want me that way.”
He was trying to give her a chance to be comfortable. Was she waiting for him? He leaned in close and took possession of her lips, silencing any protest from her, and she let out a little moan. It was so soft, and he deepened the kiss, sliding his tongue across her bottom lip. “We can have sex anytime you want,” he said.
Her eyes were wide, but they were not scared. She looked so sexy. She licked her full lip.
“What if I’m bad at it?” she asked. “I’ve been bad at everything else.”
“You won’t be.”
“I don’t know what I’m doing.”
This made him chuckle. “I will help you.”
He went to pull away but Lorelai cupped his face, and he stopped trying to pull away. “Don’t stop,” she said.
“You want me to kiss you?”
She nodded her head.
So, he stroked some of her hair back, and with his other hand, he cupped her hip and pulled her closer. The moment his lips were on hers, he changed positions and moved her so that she straddled his lap, and now there was nowhere else to go. He had complete control of her.
She let out that soft moan he had come to love, and he took full advantage by sliding his tongue into her mouth. Lorelai tentatively touched his tongue, and then he deepened the kiss. He moved her so that she was on her back, and he settled between her spread legs, thrusting his hardened cock against her core. She let out a little moan, followed by a whimper.
