Wicked Rivals - Nelson Kelliann

New York's most notorious mafia boss thought the pretty little barista who kept him on his toes was too good for his way of life, so he let her go. Ten years later, he must choose between his arranged marriage to save his empire and his past love to save her life. Will he risk everything for the seemingly innocent barista who's been lying to him all along?

When he learns the truth about what I've done, he locks me up. Now I'm a prisoner to my past and my future.

I never should have slept with Stefano Vignali, but he wanted me, his foul-mouthed little barista, and he wouldn't take no for an answer.

Of course, it was all just a fairy tale that had to end, so when I realized I had real feelings for this man, I sent back his extravagant gifts and cut ties.

I thought I could be free to live a normal life. I believed I could hide our baby from him. I was so wrong. None of my secrets were safe.

Now Stefano plans to punish me for every minute he missed with his son. God help me, it's a debt I want to pay, because a dark, fiery attraction still burns between us.

But first he must make a deal with the devil. To save my life and protect our son, he must marry me. The catch? He's contracted to another bride.

Breaking off his engagement is not an option. The city would become a bloody war zone. And I would only be trading one monster for another.
