He took her. Now he’ll never let her go.

Angel Rossi’s quiet life shatters the night she’s kidnapped by Nico Vitale — a ruthless mafia boss with a billionaire’s fortune and a predator’s gaze.

He says she’s not who she thinks she is. He says her entire life was built on a lie. He says she belongs to him.

Held captive in his Manhattan penthouse, Angel swears she’ll never fall for the man who stole her freedom. But every brush of his hand, every whispered command, pulls her deeper into a world of power, obsession, and dark temptation.

Because Nico doesn’t want her cooperation. He wants her surrender. And in the mafia, love is just another kind of war.

As Nico and Angel begin to unravel the complex entanglements between their families, a new threat emerges from an unexpected place. Now Nico and Angel are on the run, desperate to get their hands on the one thing they can trade for their lives — and a chance to begin again.

Dear Listener: The St. James Syndicate is built around dangerous mafia crime lords who will do anything for their woman. These are men who will burn the world for her, who will destroy empires — and build them — in her name. They are ruthless with others, but she is always the one person who will bring them to their knees. And while other people may hurt her, my heroes never will.
