She was never meant to kneel.
Dominic Rossi built his empire on control.
Cold. Calculated. Unforgiving.
He doesn't hesitate.
He doesn't forgive betrayal.
And he doesn't let weakness live long enough to threaten his throne.
When Sophia Lombardi becomes collateral in a brutal mafia power play between rival families, she expects to be used as leverage.
What she doesn't expect... is choice.
Sophia doesn't break.
She doesn't beg.
And she refuses to be currency in a war between powerful men.
But when assassination attempts shake the city and bloodlines collide, a political marriage becomes the only path to stability.
