the devils bride

𝐀𝐦𝐚𝐫𝐢𝐬 "𝐌𝐚𝐫𝐬" 𝐅𝐚𝐥𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐞 was born with gasoline in her veins and a vendetta on her tongue. The mafia princess no one can leash, she’s made a sport out of shaming her father’s rivals and torching every rule of the underworld. But when her latest act of sabotage leaves the city’s most powerful family humiliated—and out for blood—Mars goes from predator to prey overnight. Her sentence? Marriage to the man she hates most. Her executioner in a tailored suit.

𝐑𝐚𝐟𝐚𝐞𝐥 "𝐑𝐚𝐟𝐞" 𝐌𝐨𝐫𝐞𝐭𝐭𝐢 is the knife-edge heir of a dynasty built on fear. His name makes seasoned killers flinch, but all he sees in Mars Falcone is a mouthy liability—a pawn to break, claim, and use to bring the Falcones to heel. But when Mars slips his grasp and vanishes into the city’s shadows, Rafael finds himself obsessed with tracking down a woman who’d rather set the world on fire than kneel at his feet.

Now Mars is on the run, barefoot, bruised, and hunted by every gangland dog with a taste for Falcone blood. Rafael wants her back, not just for revenge, but because no one else is allowed to ruin her but him. As bullets fly, alliances shatter, and old enemies crawl from the dark, the city becomes their hunting ground, a place where one wrong move means a body in the river.

In a world ruled by gun smoke, blood oaths, and betrayal, Mars and Rafael must navigate a deadly game of obsession and power. She’s the flame that won’t go out; he’s the storm sent to snuff her. But the deeper they fall into each other’s arms—and crosshairs—the more dangerous their connection becomes. Because in this city, love is just another weapon…and the price of losing is always blood.
