Vicious Hearts: A Dark Mafia Romance

Cillian Kildare is a monster cloaked in charm and sophistication – a gorgeous psychopath with venom in his veins and sadism driving every beat of his cold, black heart. When I'm sent to kill the vicious Irish mafia boss to settle a debt from my past, it's supposed to be a simple task. However, it becomes a lot less straightforward when Cillian catches me, and carves his way into my darkest secrets and most deviant desires.

I'll do anything to save my family, even if it means marrying the devil himself. Now, captured and bound as his prisoner plaything, Cillian has new plans for me: an unholy marriage of inconvenience. He'll protect me from my past, and for six months, I'll give him my body, my soul, and my submission – willing or otherwise. It's just a physical arrangement, a contract and nothing more.

But the devil, as they say, is in the details. If I'm not careful, this devil might soon break his way into something else: my heart. Cillian's icy grip tightens around me, and I find myself drawn to his magnetic presence, despite my better judgment.
