Bought by the Don

Alessia Russo was raised to be an asset, and her father just sold her to the highest bidder. Salvatore Greco is forty-seven, Sicilian, and cold as the marble floors he walks on. He needed an American wife. He got one who reads his books better than his accountants do. Six weeks of separate bedrooms. Business dinners where he doesn't look at her. Then Alessia finds the money his own cousin has been stealing — and decides to hand it to Salvatore in front of the whole family. He doesn't say thank you. He takes her to bed instead, keeps her there for two days, and marries her a second time when she saves his life at the casino opening without flinching. An arranged marriage age gap mafia romance with a heroine who does not need saving and a don who learns to let her fight.
