Bounded By Debt

“She was payment for a debt. He was her captor by contract. But the deeper they fall, the harder it is to tell who owns who. When Emily Carter is sold to Marco Bianchi-ruthless mafia boss and undisputed king of the city's underworld-she expects fear, pain, and humiliation. But what she gets is far worse: silence, surveillance, and total psychological control. In Marco's gilded prison, Emily isn't beaten. She's studied. Moved like a chess piece. Watched like prey. And as she begins to challenge him-quietly, strategically-she discovers the darker truth: Marco didn't just want a bride. He wanted a weapon. But Emily is no pawn. She's a fire wrapped in silk-and she's about to burn his empire from the inside.”
