The Marriage Contract by Flora Ferrari

With my aunt’s medical bills piling up, I can’t afford to say no to this payday: pretend to be a mob prince’s fiancée, plan a fake wedding, and keep my emotions out of it. Simple, right?

The only hitch? I’m falling for him.
Dario Moretti is everything I’m not—wealthy, refined, and dangerously charming. He belongs to a world of luxury and power, while I’m just trying to stay afloat. I never imagined I’d start caring about him, but the more time we spend together, the harder it is to remember that this is all just a job.
Dario’s gaze lingers a little too long. His touch sends shivers down my spine. And when we kiss, the line between fake and real blurs. But his Family would never accept someone like me. My aunt, the whole reason I took this gig, warns me against getting involved with a criminal.
Then, a rival Mafia family targets us, and I see Dario’s true side—fiercely protective and dangerously loyal. What he does should scare me, but instead, it draws me closer. I never thought I’d fall for a mobster, but Dario is the man I didn’t know I needed.
Now, our fake relationship is feeling all too real. With rival families closing in and the weight of Dario’s dangerous life, can we survive the lies and the danger? Or are we doomed to crash and burn before we even get a chance at something real?
* The Marriage Contract is a steamy age gap romance with a HEA, no cheating, and no cliffhanger.
