Tarnished Rings

The term bastard has followed Daivi "e;Dove"e; Wright since birth.  Running a bookstore that doubles as a mafia front isn't every twenty-eight-year-old's dream, but it's the closest Dove can get to normalcy as a mafia princess. It shouldn't matter that her only source of happiness is still under her family's control. Or that her mother is barely talking to her, and that her only friend seems to be her brother-in-law. So why is she still surprised when she's ordered to marry Will Marlowe, London's most lucrative gangster and her childhood enemy? As a child of a British mobster and an Indian immigrant mother, Dove has always existed on the fringes of the mafia world. But that wasn't her choice; it was Will Marlowe's. All those years ago, he suggested Dove be raised away from her family. So when he turns up years later with a proposal in hand, London in his grasp, and a grizzled look, why does he seem so irresistible? Will Marlowe runs London's largest criminal enterprise, trying to undo the cruel reign of his father. His new wife is a spoiled mafia brat, yet she's more intelligent and spirited than he had prepared for. Even if the deepest part of him wants a true partner, having a weakness in this world is as good as death itself. A masked enemy is lurking from the outside, and by the time the two let hate turn to love, it might already be too late.-TARNISHED RINGS is a standalone dark mafia romance, recommended for adult readers.
