Summary

“Marry me, Elaine.” “What?” “One year, that’s all I am asking for.“ “And if I say no?” “Oh but you can’t. Say no, and I’ll destroy everything you’ve worked for. Your freedom, our son—I’ll take it all. So, choose, Tesoro. Either you are mine willingly…or you’ll wish you were.” ~•~ After discovering he has a son—and with a deadly threat closing in—Giovanni forces Elaine into another arrangement. 365 days on paper. 365 days under his protection. 365 days, and it all ends. But nothing with Giovanni is ever that simple. The ruthless mafia lord has his own plans for their year together—plans that include breaking through Elaine’s defenses and claiming her as his in every way possible. Elaine knows better than to trust him. She’s already paid the price for letting him into her life once before. Yet, as the days tick by and buried secrets come to light, she finds herself caught in a dangerous game where her heart—and her life—are at stake. When old enemies return and Giovanni is forced to choose between his heart and his duty, will their fragile bond survive? Or will 365 days be all they’ll ever have?
