He calls me his heart.



Tells me the only reason he closes his eyes at night is so he can see me in his dreams. Our months apart are torture for both of us, but at least I get to hear his voice every day.



Each summer, he's all mine. Every minute he can spare, I'm right beside him, and our families just smile knowingly. Ryan has responsibilities, though. One day, my mafioso prince will be the king.



And I will be his queen . . .



Then my brother runs into trouble, and I'm taken as collateral. But the enemy doesn't realize that my brother isn't the one they should worry about.



Because, without me, Ryan is heartless. And soon, they will all see what vengeance a heartless savage will wreak.



Contains mature themes.
