Older than me, with a reputation for violence and a cruel exterior to match, he’s no one I would ever choose for a husband. In fact, I’d hoped that I’d never have to marry again at all.

He holds my body captive. But he’ll never hold my heart. Captive Bride is book one in the Bridal Trilogy. The trilogy is complete. Reading order Captive Bride, Stolen Bride and Beloved Bride.

I'm a pawn in a brewing mafia war, a captive bride in a power play between two cold-blooded monsters. My father sold me to the devil: an arranged marriage with Dante Torrio, sadistic capo and would-be Boss. But before their bargain is complete, I'm stolen away by Luca Vitale, heir to the Vitale crime family. I hate Luca for forcing me into marriage, but he'll do anything to mold me into his obedient wife. The longer I remain trapped with him, the more I come to crave the dark pleasure my unyielding husband offers me. He is fiercely possessive and jealously guards me. He protects me from his enemies, especially Dante, who is determined to steal me back. Which fate would be worse? To belong to the ruthless mafia prince or to the devil himself?
