Marrying the Mobster. American Gangsters, #1

ElenaI thought the rumors about Miami's criminal underworld were just that-rumors. Until Diego Pérez showed up. Cold. Merciless. A kingpin in a tailored suit. My father's debt is too deep to crawl out of, and Diego has no interest in money anymore. He wants collateral. He wants me. Thirty days. That's how long my father has to pay before Diego makes good on his threat to kill him-or worse, keep me forever.
I should be terrified. So why does part of me want to stay?DiegoElena Aguilar is leverage, nothing more. Her father's mistake put her in my hands, and I intend to use her. But when the Russian bratva demands I marry for power, Elena becomes something else entirely-a shield. A bargaining chip. A temptation. She's defiant, fire-mouthed, and far too beautiful for her own good. She doesn't want this deal.
But in my world, consent is a luxury. And Elena Aguilar will be mine-in every way that matters. Trigger Warning: This story contains depictions of violence, coercion, and sexual assault that may be disturbing to some readers.
