The Born in Blood Collection 1 is the first four books in the bestselling Born in Blood Mafia Chronicles in one big book! 

1. Bound By Honour
   Because of my beauty I was given to a monster in exchange for peace.
   
   I was only fifteen when my father promised me to Luca Vitiello, the future Capo of the New York mafia.
   I never had a choice.
   After my eighteenth birthday, I have to marry the man who got his nickname the Vise for crushing a man’s throat with his bare hands.
   I’m terrified of our wedding night, because of the bloody-sheets-tradition of the Famiglia.
   Maybe Luca is one of New York’s most sought-after men because of his predator-like charisma but the society girls that throw themselves at him don’t know what I do: the bad boy attitude isn’t a game. Blood and death lurk beneath Luca’s cold eyes.
   In my world a handsome exterior often hides the monster within.
   The only way to escape the marriage would be to run, but Luca would burn down the world to catch me.
   My only chance is to work my way into Luca’s heart.
   If he even has one…
   
   Dark arranged marriage romance with an innocent heroine and an over-the-top possessive and jealous hero.
