He gave her a choice with a gun behind it.
Emilia Emmy Costa is the woman you call when the wedding is drowning, the florist is sobbing, and the whole rooftop is one gust away from disaster. She fixes other people's crises for a living-then goes home to a family restaurant that's one late payment away from getting swallowed by the city's most dangerous power.
Nicolo Nico Vieri doesn't do second chances. He does leverage.
When Emmy storms into his world to negotiate her family's debt, she expects a bean counter and a payment plan. What she gets is a contract: the Costa debt disappears-no interest, no collectors, no more fear-if she marries him.
It's not romance. It's optics. It's territory. It's a cold don taking a sunshine event planner as his most public shield.
Except Emmy refuses to be a silent prop.
She writes consent into the contract. She keeps her business. She pushes back on every rule. And when a rival family turns their wedding into a target, Emmy does what she's always done best-she plans for disaster and survives it.
But the more Nico watches her work, the more their arranged marriage stops feeling like a cage... and starts feeling like a choice neither of them knows how to stop making.
Because Emmy's fear has a dangerous twin: desire.
And Nico isn't gentle-but he is controlled. Ruthless-but learning where to aim it. When a billionaire empire offers Nico legitimacy wrapped in a polished trap that would gut Emmy's neighborhood, he has to decide what power is worth.
Easy money.
Or her world.
My Ruthless Husband is a high-stakes, marriage-of-convenience mafia romance packed with sharp banter, one-bed tension, forced proximity, a consent-forward intimacy arc, and a ruthless hero who learns that choosing her means choosing consequences.
