Vows of the Underboss Book 1

Angela Romano saved a life.

She didn't know it belonged to a queen.

One act of instinct pulls her into a world she was never meant to see-a world of power, blood, and quiet violence, where loyalty is everything and mercy is a liability.

And in that world, there is one man she cannot escape.

Antonio Mancini.

The underboss.

Cold. Controlled. Dangerous in ways no one dares to speak aloud.

He doesn't lose control.

He doesn't make mistakes.

And he does not let anyone close enough to matter.

Until Angela.

She was never supposed to be more than a complication-a woman too kind for his world, too sharp to ignore, and far too fearless for her own good. But the more she challenges him, the more she draws him in... until distance is no longer an option.

And once Antonio decides something is his-

he doesn't let go.

But wanting her puts a target on her back.

Enemies begin to circle.

Secrets begin to surface.

And the line between protection and possession starts to blur.

Angela thought she understood danger.

She was wrong.

Because loving Antonio doesn't just mean stepping into his world-

it means surviving it.

And in a life built on power, loyalty, and control...

The most dangerous vow of all is the one he makes without asking.
