Where Quiet Hearts Scream

Watching my sister marry her soulmate should have been the happiest day of my life. Instead, it was the day my life ended.The handsome hotel guest who caught me when I fell and listened to my dreams wasn’t innocent. He wanted control of Boston—and he and my brother-in-law struck a deal: Boston’s underworld for my hand in marriage.Now I’m engaged to Andreas Corioni, a man I don’t truly know. His icy gaze can freeze the warmest heart, and his voice can make the most fearsome men bow. At first I’m nothing but collateral… until he finally looks at me like I’m more.When the night turns cruel, and old scars split open beneath my perfect bride mask, he’s there—in dark doorways, whispered threats and relentless protection that feels a lot like possession.This is a marriage of convenience. A deal.But if he keeps peeling away my defenses, will I finally learn how to live again… or will loving him cost me everything?
