“If I don’t hear you, I’ll shoot. Don’t understand you, I’ll shoot. Irritate me, I’ll shoot. Bore me dear finacée…” he tapped the barrel once, on purpose. “…and you’ll wish you'd never walked through that door” “Then let me give you something you won’t want to kill.” ***** Elena Whitmore never expected her father’s crushing debt to cost her everything. To save her family, she took the desperate gamble to trade places with her twin sister and marry Nico De Luca, the ruthless Mafia heir. In the public eye, De Luca is a media darling; the celebrated, multi-billion dollar CEO who controls empires around the world. But that dazzling facade is merely a shield for the truth that people are too afraid to acknowledge: he rules one of the most powerful families in the underworld. Sitting before him with a proposal he never asked for was madness, but her decision was sealed the moment her twin was rushed to the hospital. Despite coming from an influential family herself, Elena knows this dangerous masquerade will cost her, yet she refuses to lose herself entirely in his merciless world. Now, to survive the cruel joke fate has played, she must shed her own identity and become the perfect, untouchable wife even if only for a while.
