Reckless Surrender

Adriano Moretti rules the underworld with an iron fist and a deep-seated hatred for Americans, a trauma left behind by the mother who abandoned him at age seven.

When a desperate debtor hands over his daughter as collateral, Adriano sees the ultimate target for his vengeance. He traps her in his estate under a twisted, psychological bargain: act as a substitute for the mother who broke him, and she can earn her freedom.

Stubborn and fierce, Maya refuses to break, slowly chipping away at his icy exterior until an undeniable, dangerous chemistry sparks between them. But just as she falls for her father’s killer, she uncovers a secret.

Caught between justice and a dark, obsessive love, she must decide whether to betray the man who claimed her or protect him with her life.
