Angol
He's a savage. She's a willing bride who dreams of freedom; only she gives up one cage to find herself in another.
Emma
I was a willing sacrifice in an arranged marriage. Until my father made a new deal and gave me to another. Now I must marry a savage. A Northerner- the very thing I had been taught to hate.
I vow to never be his. I will never belong to Shay O'Reagan. I will defy him every step of the way.
He may lay claim to my body, but he will never own my heart.
Shay
In order to secure my place in the Irish Mafia, I agree to an arranged marriage. A marriage with a willing bride, one groomed to be the wife of a mafia king. What I get is a redheaded beauty hell bent on my destruction. Turns out, she was meant to be the perfect mafia wife- just not mine. That treacherous detail doesn't stop me from wanting her. From needing to taste her ruby red lips.
The fire that blazes in her defiant eyes lights a desire inside of me that demands I claim her as my own. While she wastes my time defying me with every breath, the North rises up demanding retribution for a crime that was buried a long time ago. The clock is ticking as I battle a war around me and within my own walls. Every minute takes us both closer to certain death. I'm unsure of who my true allies are and where my enemies are hiding. There's only one thing I'm certain of.
I will never give up. I will fight to the end, no matter the cost.
I am a King and I will die on my feet.
