Mafia Daddy's Christmas Bride

He married me to protect the family. I said yes to stay alive.

Roman Ginetti — La Corona’s most feared enforcer. Widower. Single dad. Forty-five to my twenty-five. Twice my age. Infinitely more dangerous.

Because this Christmas… I’m hiding something that will destroy us both. I’m carrying his baby.

Merry Christmas, Daddy.
