Burning Vows
A Dark Mafia Romance

Everyone in Bensonhurst thinks Chiara Castellano is fine. The cardigan, the mascara, the front office at the school — she's built a whole performance out of surviving. But she still checks the locks three times a night, and she still wakes at four a.m. bracing for a door that already came.Then she spots him. A man at her cousin's funeral who stood through an entire Requiem Mass without once looking at the casket — older, unreadable, wrong in a way she can't name. Nobody can name him. Her uncle's men walked right past him. So Chiara does what no one in her family would dare — she walks up to his car with two espressos and demands answers.He knows her routes. Her locks. Her four a.m. light. He's been watching her family for fifteen years, for a man he won't name. He won't even give her his own. All he'll offer is one answer a day — if she keeps getting in the car.But the secrets her family buried didn't stay buried by accident. Someone is still guarding them, and Chiara is starting to understand that curiosity has a price her family has paid in blood before. The closer she gets to the truth, the closer she gets to him — and the more she craves the one thing more dangerous than his answers: the way he looks at her like she's already his.A dark mafia, age-gap romance with a lethal, obsessive hero. Book 3 in the Brutal Vows series.He memorized every route she takes. She's the one thing he'll never report.Perfect for fans of Danielle Lori.
