A lethal executioner. A brilliant auditor. A dangerous secret that will burn an empire to the ground.
Elena Vance built her life on predictable routines and balanced ledgers. Her existence shatters the night she uncovers a money-laundering scheme operated by the Vescari crime family. Armed with an encrypted flash drive containing the syndicate's financial architecture, she becomes the target of a city-wide manhunt.
Luca Vescari serves as the ultimate fail-safe for the underground. The syndicate bosses issue him a contract: locate the rogue accountant, recover the data, and eliminate the liability. He corners Elena on a subway platform, ready to close the ledger. The situation changes in a fraction of a second when a paramilitary squad arrives to execute her. Luca makes a split-second decision, turning his weapon against his employers and dragging Elena into the shadows.
With a ten-million-dollar bounty on their heads, the assassin and the civilian forge an alliance. Elena controls the decryption key, while Luca provides the force required to keep them breathing. As they navigate lumber mills and subterranean vaults, the boundary between captor and protector begins to blur. They must learn to trust each other to leak the master files and destroy the Vescari empire-or die trying.
Collateral Vows delivers a mafia suspense romance filled with action, forced proximity, and enemies-to-lovers tension
