Sinful Promises by Marie Annilla

His plan was to abduct her… but she ended up stealing his heart instead.

When Sofiya Melov was just five years old, her father promised to take her to a place where people dined on clouds that tasted like strawberries and drank from lakes of vanilla ice cream. This whimsical vision filled her early years with wonder, but his sudden passing scattered her dreams like leaves in the wind.
Raised under her mother’s strict gaze, Sofiya spent the eighteen years following her father’s death in a haze, conforming to expectations and rules.
But, one pivotal night changed everything …
Entangled with the leader of the fearsome Russian mafia clan, the Silas, she found herself immersed in a world where secrets, lust, and darkness reign.
As she slowly unraveled her family mysteries, she unexpectedly found herself drawn to him.

Their journey, fraught with pain and betrayal, ultimately revealed that love can blossom in the most unexpected places.=
