Depths of Desire (The Emerald Dagger Mafia #3)

Trusting the wrong person could cost me everything.

I’m on the run, determined to avoid the same fate as my two best friends, who married into a powerful Mafia family.

Trusting the wrong person could cost me everything.

I’m on the run, determined to avoid the same fate as my two best friends, who married into a powerful Mafia family. I book passage on a containership leaving Italy, bound for the new world, hoping to disappear and start over. I’ve saved up for years, prepared to change my name and vanish. But my plan shatters when I discover Niccolo Valdici on board. He’s making a deal that goes horribly wrong. They kill Nico—or so I think—until he gets up and slaughters them all. Nico isn’t just Mafia; he’s a vampire.

Now, I’m running from both my family and Nico, but he tracks me down with an ultimatum: marry him, and he’ll help me live the life I want, or refuse, and he’ll kill me. I’m caught between terror and temptation, but before I can decide, someone tries to kidnap me—and Nico saves my life.

My father’s murder changes everything. Suddenly, I’m in charge of the family business, forced to navigate a deadly world of betrayal and bloodshed. Nico is controlling, dangerously seductive, and possibly my only ally.
