Marked for Love

Vicente Acconci adopted both his stepfather's name and his ruthlessness. However, being kin to the "Devil of Sicily" has never been easy. It's cost him his mother, his humanity, and any chance of redemption. As an assassin, Vicente has seen his share of cruelty. But Grace Trellis his latest mark, is a totally different breed. She's no spoiled conceited little Daddy's girl. In fact, she's quite possibly the most perplexing woman Vicente has ever met.
Her bravery and selflessness will remind Vicente what it is like to be truly human and teach him that one's humanity is never truly lost. Grace Trellis has always had a complicated relationship with her father. When she's kidnapped to pay his debts, however, matters take a dangerous turn. Her foreign kidnapper has eyes of steel and a heart of stone, but Grace sees something in him she's never encountered before: A kindred spirit.
Together, can they defy the devil and heal their open wounds? Or is Vicente too far gone to let a bruised sparrow touch his hardened heart?
