Publisher's Synopsis
"I have fallen in love with a man who will never be mine despite me being his."
Ava O'Brien is drowning. She hasn't finished paying off her father's last gambling debt when he confesses to owing The Manarch Clan a hundred thousand dollars. In one week. This Scottish Mafia clan is known for being ruthless and unforgiving. And Viktor Manarch has been groomed his entire life to take over. Business is business, and he always gets what he wants. When Ava walks into the family restaurant Viktor can't help himself. He proposes an arrangement to pay off her father's debt. A fake engagement gets him one step closer to becoming head of the clan, his father off his back, and it gets him Ava for a whole year. Too bad Viktor's father has plans of his own that don't include Ava. But when a dominant, possessive mafia boss fully claims a woman, he will set the world on fire before he gives up what's his.
