To Have and to Hold: An Age-Gap Mafia/Cartel Arranged Marriage Romance (Brutal Vows #5)

Arranged marriage. Age-gap. Enemies to lovers. Forbidden Mafia & cartel romance

Everyone says I'm the wrong man for Isabella Luciano.

They're right.

The fragile peace between the Kansas City Mafia and the Roríguez Cartel is unraveling. Blood has been spilled. Old grudges have returned. One wrong move could destroy the alliance that united our families through marriage.

I should be thinking about war.
Instead, I can't stop thinking about her.

Isabella Luciano is young, beautiful, and completely out of my reach. Raised to believe the cartel is the enemy, she looks at me with suspicion instead of trust—and her father would rather see the alliance burn than place her in my hands.

He can hate me all he wants.
It won't change my mind.

I don't want just any bride.

I want Isabella.

I'll do whatever it takes to convince her that even a man with blood on his hands can keep his vows... and protect the woman he loves.

But in a world built on loyalty, revenge, and family honor, loving the wrong woman may be the one sin neither the Mafia nor the Cartel will ever forgive.

From New York Times bestselling author Aleatha Romig comes TO HAVE AND TO HOLD, an interconnected stand-alone in the Brutal Vows series featuring an arranged marriage, an age-gap romance, enemies to lovers, forced proximity, forbidden love, a morally gray hero, slow-burn passion, and the dangerous cost of choosing love over legacy.
