His Playground

Antonia
Blood. Pain. Tears. Despair. Hate. All words I associate with those around me. But it’s true what they say. You can’t choose your family. And mine? Well, I don’t think anyone would choose them.
I’m the daughter of a notorious Don. A daughter who is nothing more than a piece of meat to be used as a bargaining chip. Which is exactly what my father has done. I can either go along with his plan to marry me off to a stranger. Or I can refuse and pay for it with my life.
Love. I always thought that one was made up. A fairy tale that had no place in the real world.
People weren’t really conditioned to love. Especially not me.
But my new husband? He almost makes me believe that love is something real. Almost.

Carlo
This city is my playground. Nothing is unattainable here. Nothing except her.
You could say she’s the one who got away. But the thing is, I never actually let her go. So when the opportunity comes along, I jump on it. I offer myself up in place of my friend.
Antonia doesn’t know it yet. No one really does. But she’s always been mine.
The arrangement isn’t just for me, though. I have more than one reason to marry this woman.
She also has more than one reason to hate me. It’s why I have to do my best to win her over… before she learns the truth and tries to kill me in my sleep.

This is book 2 in the Owning Vegas Series and can be listened to as a stand-alone, however listening to book 1, His Kingdom, first will give you a better experience.
