Savage Arrows, 3
She never expected to marry a man like him. He never planned to offer her a choice.
Galen Arrow, enforcer for his family’s powerful crime syndicate, is on a mission to eliminate a traitor. But when he meets the traitor’s daughter, Bianca De Luca, everything changes. Struck by her beauty and fire, Galen makes her an offer: her father’s life in exchange for her hand in marriage.
Bianca doesn’t trust him, but with no other options, she agrees. As their fiery chemistry turns into something more, danger lurks around every corner. In a world of lies, loyalty, and betrayal, can Bianca and Galen survive long enough to see if their unlikely union can become something real?
One choice. One marriage. One chance at love.
Excerpt:
“Let go,” he murmured, his voice low and soothing, as if he could sense the storm raging within her.
The words were more a command than a request, but they held a strange promise—a promise of release, of surrender, of something she had never allowed herself to feel.
Before she could process what was happening, Galen leaned forward, closing the distance between them. His lips brushed against hers, tentative at first, as if testing the waters.
The contact was electrifying, sending a jolt of heat through her. Instinctively, she responded, her body betraying her mind as she kissed him back with a fervor that surprised her.
That was all the encouragement Galen needed. His grip on her cheek tightened, and he deepened the kiss, taking control. His mouth moved against hers with a demanding hunger, and she found herself yielding to him, letting him lead.
Her nipples tightened under her pajama top and her panties became moist with want. It was dizzying, overwhelming, and when he finally pulled back, her heart was racing, her breath coming in shallow gasps.
She stared at him, trying to make sense of what had just happened, but her thoughts were a chaotic mess. It was terrifying how this man—a stranger, really—had tilted her entire world with just one kiss.
But there were still details to iron out. Despite the undeniable attraction, Bianca wasn’t about to lose herself completely to this madness.
“You’ll let go of my father if I agree to be yours for one night?” she asked, needing to clarify the terms of this twisted deal.
Galen’s response wasn’t what she expected. His gaze was steady, his expression unreadable as he said, “Not just one night. Bianca, I want you to be my wife.”
