The Widow Contract (Book 1) — Hardcover

Three weeks from ruin, Amara Vale accepts the only deal left standing: two years as Dante Moretti's wife. A performance. A survival strategy. A contract she intends to outlast.

She doesn't know that Dante knew what she was before she ever signed her name. She doesn't know that the Moretti family ordered her family's destruction twenty years ago. She doesn't know that she is the last heir of a dynasty everyone believes is ash.

By the time she learns the truth, leaving is no longer an option.

The Widow Contract is a dark contemporary mafia romance about a woman who discovers she's not the nobody they told her she was — and a man who built an empire for a woman dangerous enough to keep it.
