“What did you say?”
“I said that if you won’t touch me and make me yours, then maybe someone should.”

Rosie Fay is the daughter of the mafia, so she is used to being surrounded by guns, sulky men, and dangerous deals. But her father thought she shouldn’t lead things after he was gone, so he made a deal and offered her hand in marriage to Archie Donovan.
The arranged marriage wasn’t the problem though—Archie was. He treated her well and took care of her, but that’s all their relationship entailed. No romantic strings attached. But they clearly liked each other, so why did he always push her away?
As the tension between them intensified, the dangers around the family increased. Was happiness even a possibility for them? Or would the mafia life take that away from her?

Even though I finally had Archie sleeping by my side in my own bed back home, I still had nightmares that night. Images of Seth being hurt, Royce’s evil laugh while he gloated about the feeling of beating him up, and eventually getting to me and Archie made it seem like I hadn’t even slept.


I woke up feeling like sh*t, and to make it even worse, Archie wasn’t there anymore. I didn’t see him leave, but I guessed he was eager to check on Seth and find out more about what had happened.


After I showered and got ready for work, I went downstairs to grab some breakfast before checking on Seth myself. I wouldn’t be able to go to work without knowing how he passed the night.
