My real life—the one that matters—began the night Devin O'Hare snatched me from my bed. That was when I learned I'd been born into some local mafia I'd never even heard of. That everything I believed before was a lie.
It turns out my parents did something really bad, and Devin O'Hare funded it. He's not bothered about the ethics of it all, he just wants his money back.
But he'll settle for payback, and he has the perfect one in mind. He wants me to marry him, to humiliate them.
The problem is, since that first night when I felt his arms around me, it was never about the debt for me. And I know Devin has his own reasons for wanting to keep me around, even if he refuses to admit it.
Falling for a man who kidnapped me seems absurd. Cliché. But at the end of the day you can't change who you are or what you want from life... I just hope Devin realises that in time.
