Fight Me Little Pearl by Georgia Le Carre

Francesca

I hate my bridegroom.
There, I’ve said it.
I hate him with a ferocious passion.

I loathe everything about him. His insufferable arrogance, his mocking smile, his dangerously glinting gunmetal-gray eyes, and his corrupt vicious heart. The way everyone pathetically defers to his every word and rushes to serve him as if he is some kind of god irritates the hell out of me. But even worse, I hate the shameful way my body responds to his. I tremble for him. The intensity of my raw desire shocks and repulses me. How can I possibly want him this desperately when I hate him so much?
It is as if he is the devil himself and he has cast a spell on me.
It was not my choice to be born a Mafia daughter, but I chose to be a Mafia wife. After my father’s death, my grandfather was too old and vulnerable to defend our family from my father’s enemies. And the only way to secure our survival was for me to marry the head of the powerful Barone clan. My dowry is a piece of land coveted by the Don himself. To him it is worth billions… once he develops it.
My mother ss I will find peace eventually, but how can I, when I love Thomas? Thomas is a decent man. He doesn’t sit on an empire of plunder and theft. He wants to heal the world. I imagined us doing good together, and I’m not giving up on my wonderful dream.
The cravings of my body betray me at every turn, but they will not stop me. I will find a way to end this marriage.
Soon, my dear husband will find out… releasing me is his only option, or ours will be a marriage made in hell.
This I vow…
