Sinner’s Vows by Sophia Karlson

Dominic Scalera

The world is spinning apart as the old Don’s death delivers another post-mortem surprise: Ariana Morelli, a woman with too many secrets.

Ariana crashes into our lives out of nowhere and becomes our family’s only link to a past we buried decades ago.

Except she doesn’t talk. Making people talk is my specialty, but I’ve never had to wring information out of a woman before—never mind one who bears scars like my own handiwork… scars similar to the ones I have on my skin.

Even worse, Ariana looks at me with trust in her eyes and clings to my hand as if I’m her savior, making me feel alive for the first time since I was reduced to nothing but a weapon in the Don’s arsenal.

I can’t let her break down my walls. I refuse to cave to the desire that pulses between us. I’m the devil himself, and Ariana Morelli is a slice of heaven the likes of me will never deserve.

Worst of all, I already sense that once her truth finally comes out, I’ll have to kill her to save my brothers. How do I pull the trigger on the woman I love?

Ariana Morelli

Kidnapped and trafficked, I’m alive only to serve as a bartering tool. When my kidnapper’s plans crumble, I’m wounded and thrown into the heart of Il Consiglio—and straight into Dominic Scalera’s arms.

He takes care of me, convinced I’m tied to his missing sister. But I’m an undercover agent, in the wrong country, trapped in the wrong crime ring.

All I want is to get the hell out of here—while hiding who and what I really am—reconnect with my team in Italy, and finish the job we started.

But Dominic Scalera has other plans—plans that involve uncovering everything about me. Nobody has ever asked. Nobody has ever cared. And as Dominic gently pries open every locked door in my inner world, I can’t help but fall for him, even though I know we’re doomed.

This can only end one way, and it isn’t going to be pretty.
