An Arranged Marriage Mafia Romance...

Once Upon a time I fell in love with a boy.

A boy who held my heart in the palm of his hand and vowed to protect me, to love me, always, and forever. With onyx hair, eyes the color of viridian, and a heart of gold, he was my only saving grace in this gilded cage.

Until the day he left.

Shattering my heart and leaving me to a fate worse than death.

On my eighteenth birthday, they promised me to a man I hardly knew. Swore me into a life in the Italian mob I despised. Until my fiancé turns up murdered before our wedding, prompting all hell to break loose in the dismal dwellings of Chicago's seedy underbelly.

Pain breeds chaos and chaos invites sin.

Now, as fate would have it, that boy I fell in love with all those years ago is back to reclaim what they stole from him. He's no longer the kindhearted boy from my past, he's now a man with a darkness in his eyes, and a heinous craving for blood and destruction.

He's the Devil, hellbent on the ruination of me, and my family.

This isn't a fairytale about a noble prince and a damsel princess. Our story is one of the Princess and the Devil.

A distorted tale of navigating life with my new husband.

The king of the underworld.

Azriel Costa.
