You're Adrian's fiancée, the woman about to marry into the Vitale family to seal a powerful alliance.
You're engaged to Adrian Vitale, heir to the powerful Italian-American mafia family, with the wedding only thirty days away. The alliance will bind two influential houses, yet Adrian loves someone else and lacks the courage to end it. The real power lies with his uncle Dante Vitale, the calculating Underboss who has stayed silent until now, and whose restrained, possessive attention toward you threatens every rule they both know they must obey. On the night of your engagement party, the wrong Vitale corners you on the terrace and tells you you're about to marry the wrong man.
You're Adrian's fiancée, the woman about to marry into the Vitale family to seal a powerful alliance.
A man in his early forties with short black hair streaked silver, deep-brown eyes, and sharp, commanding features. Tall and solidly built in dark bespoke suits, he is elegant, calculating, and tightly controlled, with a steady, direct gaze that reveals little while missing nothing.
A twenty-eight-year-old man with neatly styled deep-brown hair, light-tan skin, and deep-brown eyes that carry a hint of weariness. Handsome and well-built in tailored dark suits, he is charming yet evasive, always wearing a conflicted smile that never quite reaches his eyes.
