Broken Oath

She brought a knife to her wedding.

Four ounces of ceramic blade strapped beneath the lace, hidden under a smile she'd been perfecting since she was twelve. Marco Sorrentino killed her brother. The plan was simple: one night, one blade, one Greyhound ticket west.

Then someone ran her off the Belt Parkway.

Sera Castellano is the boss's daughter. Untouchable. Protected. So when three men approach her wrecked car with guns drawn, she knows this wasn't an accident.

And the man who leaves their bodies bleeding on the asphalt?

Marco Sorrentino. The husband she came to kill.

Marco lost everything when his older brother walked away from the life. This forced marriage to the Castellano princess was supposed to give him back the power, the respect, the seat at the table he bled for.

But the attacks don't stop. The Belt. A restaurant. A kidnapping.

When they finally take her, Marco doesn't negotiate. He goes to war.

Sera came to this marriage with a blade and a lie. But the closer she gets to the truth about her brother's death, the more she realizes the real enemy isn't the one holding the gun.

It's the one who pointed it.

Her family made her a weapon. Marco made her his.

She brought a knife. He brought war. Someone brought betrayal.
