“What did you say?”
“I said that if you won’t touch me and make me yours, then maybe someone should.”
To my surprise, Archie smirked at me and his gaze drifted to my lips.
“No one’s ever going to touch you but me, Rosie.”

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?

“Ah, you must be the famous Mrs. Fay-Donovan.” The woman got to her feet, flashing a bright smile in my direction as she offered me her hand. “It’s a pleasure to meet you. I’m Naomi Byrne.”


I shook her hand while my brain tried to make a connection with the name and the woman standing in front of me. I had never seen her before in my life. 


And to be honest, I wasn’t very happy to find a beautiful woman inside my apartment, alone with my husband. 


Call it pettiness or low self-esteem. Whatever. Naomi exuded this air of confidence that kind of made me feel self-aware. I didn’t want to feel intimidated by her, but I did.


I tossed Archie a side glance, my brows raising with intrigue as I waited for someone to explain what the hell was going on.


Who was she? What was she doing here? And why wasn’t I aware of her existence until now? What was Archie dealing with and why did she have to be so pretty?
