Description
From author Oona Ryda comes a high-heat Irish mob romance featuring an age-gap arranged marriage, a possessive hero who will stop at nothing to protect what's his, and a downtrodden heroine discovering she's worth fighting for. This is the first book in the O'Rourke Brothers series. Guaranteed HEA.
When Chicago mob boss Cillian O'Rourke arrives to settle a fifty-thousand-dollar score, he doesn't expect to walk away with the deadbeat gambler's nineteen-year-old virgin daughter.
Nora Murphy has survived her father's abuse by making herself invisible. She knows what men like Cillian O'Rourke want from girls like her -- and she knows better than to hope for anything else. But Cillian isn't at all what she expects, and his offer comes out of the blue. What begins as a business transaction -- marriage in exchange for security -- becomes something neither of them planned for.
Cillian is willing to burn his family, his alliances, and a twenty-million-dollar deal for a woman who sleeps on closet floors because she doesn't believe she deserves a bed. But the real adversary is far more formidable -- the years of conditioning his bride has endured.
Cillian will have to fight for the woman he loves with everything he has.
Nora will have to decide if she's brave enough to stay.
This is a story about two broken people who find something neither expected -- a reason to be better.
