She entered his house to steal one secret. She never expected him to be waiting.
Elara Voss has only one night to save her sixteen-year-old brother.
The anonymous offer is impossible to refuse: break into Villa Vespera, open the private safe of Italy’s most feared mafia boss, and steal a sealed black envelope.
Complete the job, and her brother’s operation will be paid for.
Fail—or reveal who hired her—and he dies.
But the moment Elara reaches the safe, the office door locks behind her.
Matteo Falcone is waiting in the darkness.
Cold, controlled, and dangerously observant, Matteo knows the break-in was never simply about stolen documents. Someone close to him has betrayed his organization, and Elara has been sent directly into the heart of a deadly trap.
Now she is trapped inside his estate.
Matteo refuses to let her leave until she reveals the name of the person who sent her. But Elara’s silence is the only thing keeping her brother alive.
The longer she remains inside Villa Vespera, the more dangerous the secrets become—and the harder it is to remember that Matteo Falcone is supposed to be her enemy.
In a house built on lies, falling for each other may be the most dangerous bargain of all.
She came to steal from his villa. She never expected him to steal her heart.
The Falcone Bargain is a dark mafia romance filled with forced proximity, dangerous secrets, betrayal, slow-burning tension, a fiercely protective antihero, and a heroine who refuses to surrender.
