Secrets of the Brother

I chose duty over desire once… and now blood stains my hands. I won’t make that mistake again.

As the eldest Cavalieri heir, my life has never been my own.

I inherited an empire built on scandal and silence.

Legacy before loyalty.

Duty before desire.

So I did what was expected, I wed a woman I could never love,

and buried my heart where no one could reach it.

Now she’s dead.

And to protect the truth about her life—and her death—I must stay close to the one woman I should never touch: her sister.

Bianca is everything I’ve spent years denying myself: soft where my world is sharp, light where my sins are pitch black…and the only woman I’ve ever wanted.

Keeping her close keeps her safe but it also tortures me.

She’s forbidden.

Off-limits by blood and honor.

But that’s never stopped a Cavalieri man from claiming what he wants.

I’d burn down this entire empire to have her.

To confess that every choice, every lie, was all for her.

Yet fate has its own wicked plans.

And loving her might be the final sin that destroys us both.

Because in my family, forbidden desire is the most dangerous secret of all.

A forbidden love. A deadly truth. A man willing to risk everything.

Fall deeper into the seductive chaos of the Cavalieri Mafia—where every passion has a price.
