No Vows, No Mercy

I was married in a chapel with eleven witnesses and a gun in the next room. Anya Reznikov has been sold to Dmitri Volkov to settle a debt she never agreed to. The terms are simple: separate rooms, no questions, never leave the grounds. She memorizes the floor plan in a week. What she doesn't plan for is the ledger. The debt was forged. The man who forged it is sitting at Dmitri's table, smiling. And when the rival family decides the new bride is the cleanest way to gut the Volkov syndicate, Dmitri's own council votes to hand her over. He refuses. It costs him half his territory. Now Anya has one exit worth taking, and it runs straight through the man she was never supposed to want. She wasn't the wife he planned for. She's the one who's going to save him anyway.
