My father’s will is quite clear: either I marry or I forfeit the mafia empire we’ve built.

Maybe getting married isn’t a chore… As it turns out, it’s exactly what I want.But my world is one of darkness and violence, and happy endings are hard to find. When Maddie is taken from me, I’ll get her back by any means necessary and rain down hell on everyone who dares to do her harm.MINK's Note: Get some caffeine and a kitty for this tale of marriage of convenience with a big helping of true love and a side of cute kitty.

    When the IED exploded, it took part of my leg … and ended my career. Fighting back was harder than I imagined, but I did it. Putting the pieces back together was even worse. But I refused to let it defeat me. I climbed that mountain only to discover I was flawed. Damaged. Scarred. And always would be. Then my life took a turn and a different kind of explosion occurred. This one affected my heart. Perfection in every sense of the word stood before me … Something I wasn't or would ever be. Because I was disfigured. Broken. Defective. Why is it the things you want most are those you can never have? I've learned the most important battles are the ones worth fighting for… and maybe some things are worth waiting a lifetime for. *This is a spin-off of Craving Midnight Bonus content included
