“Marry me and I will keep you safe.” I walked into my father’s study for a book… And walked out engaged to a Mafia Don. Giovanni Renzetti doesn’t take no for an answer. Especially not from a girl like me… Deaf. Mute. Flawed. Forgotten. I’ve spent my life shrinking under my father’s contempt… Until Giovanni looks at me like I’m his salvation and his sin. He says he’ll protect me. But who will protect me from him? From the danger in his smile… From the fire in his bed… From the way he makes me feel seen—for the first time. He’s darkness wrapped in power. And now both he and the babies growing inside me are mine. Whether I speak the words or not.
