Burn Me Slowly: Dark Mafia Romance

Alessia Bianchi I've been trained to be silent. Polished like glass, obedient like a soldier. But even glass cracks when pressure is constant. And now, after a lifetime of being traded like currency, I'm being handed to him...Mikhail Novikov. The coldest, most brutal name in the underground world. I've seen what monsters look like. My father raised me with them. But Mikhail? He's something worse. A man carved from ice and violence, whose hands are always bloodstained and whose stare burns through lies. They say I belong to him now. But no one warned him... I may be shattered, but I still have sharp edges. Mikhail Novikov I don't believe in innocence. Not in this world. Not when blood runs deeper than truth. Alessia Bianchi was meant to be leAlessiage, a pawn in a war that's already buried too many bodies. I expected tears. I expected obedience. What I got was fire wrapped in silk. She trembles, but not from fear. She looks at me like she wants to understand the devil before she dances with him. And I… I want to corrupt every fragile piece she's fought to protect. This isn't about love. This is possession. Obsession. And she'll either survive it... or be consumed by it. This is the first book in the Pretty When I Break Series. Reading order: Burn Me Slowly, Break Me Softly. Bury Me Fully.
