SCAR Blood Oath: A dark mafia arranged marriage blood oath romance (Gatti Brothers)

Some debts aren't paid in money—they're paid in blood, in vows, and in the lives of daughters who never asked to be collateral.

Allegra Marone has always known her family's world runs on violence and obligation, but nothing prepares her for the night Scar Gatti arrives to collect what he believes is rightfully his. Bound by a blood oath made before she drew her first breath, she belongs to him now—and he has no intention of being gentle about it.

Scar is everything the rumors promised: ruthless, scarred, and utterly without mercy. He didn't take Allegra to build a life with her. He took her to dismantle one. Every cold word, every calculated cruelty is designed to remind her that she's a trophy of war, not a woman worth wanting. The Marones stole from his family, and she is his repayment—with interest.

But Allegra didn't survive growing up in one of New York's most dangerous mafia dynasties by breaking easily. She refuses to cower behind gilded cage bars, and the more she pushes back, the more Scar finds himself losing control of the very revenge he so carefully planned.

He wants to destroy her. She refuses to be destroyed. And somewhere between the fury and the fire, the lines between enemy and obsession begin to blur in the most dangerously addictive ways.

In this dark mafia world, the most brutal weapon turns out to be desire itself—and neither of them is prepared for the damage it leaves behind.
