My brother started a war that put me squarely in the enemy's territory. It was all about finally exacting revenge for our family, but the plan required me to give my false allegiance to a hated Vivenzo. In return for this new alliance, I was gifted Luca's one and only daughter, Dia, as collateral until we'd both proven our loyalty to one another. The only thing I intended to prove was that the Vivenzo family was meant to suffer and die for killing our father. But first, I had to integrate myself into their world, and Dia was the perfect pawn to make that happen.

Good thing I planned on killing her first. Both our families intended to wipe out the other, and only one would survive the war. But what will happen when the one woman I should hate the most becomes the one I can't live without? Ruthless Rebel is the second book in the Ruthless Mafia series. It is a stand-alone enemies to...
