Guarding the Mafia Heir: An M/M Mafia Romance

He's supposed to take a bullet for me. Not steal my heart. Ricardo Caruso has spent his entire life as the mafia don's son—suffocating under his father's control, dreaming of escape but trapped by blood and loyalty. When a rival family puts a target on his back, his father assigns him a bodyguard: Marco Ricci, a lethal enforcer with storm-grey eyes and a carefully controlled exterior that Ricardo is determined to crack. Marco knows the rules. Protect the boss's son. Keep him alive. Don't get attached. But Ricardo is reckless, infuriating, and far too tempting for Marco's peace of mind. One forbidden kiss changes everything, and suddenly the most dangerous thing in Marco's world isn't the enemies hunting them—it's the feelings he can't afford to have. When the violence escalates and Marco's loyalty is tested, they're faced with an impossible choice: stay trapped in a world that will never let them be together, or risk everything to bring down the Caruso empire from within. But betraying the mafia comes with a price. And some debts are paid in blood. A high-stakes mafia romance about forbidden love, dangerous choices, and two men willing to burn down everything they've ever known for a chance at freedom.
